Over on KSR, Matt's been told money isn't the issue if the coach is worth it and they can make him one of the highest paid in the game.
This is why I don't listen to Matt Jones. UK is not going to spend a ton of money on a football head coach. Never have, never will. He says things just to stir the pot.

I'm not a Matt Jones fan either but I have the distinct feeling that Barnhart felt his feet to the fire over Joker. I think he thought the fans would stick it out as we have so many times before instead of flat out not showing up. He knows that he can't fund his Olympic sports without a football program that at the very least keeps fans in the seats.
Mike had some good thoughts about boosters who were wanting to put some money into football but not until this administration showed they were willing to change.
Never is a very long time.
