Hell yeah Kentucky is a great job.
Stoops is in his 9th year at UK and currently makes $4.75 million per.
His overall record is 51-50 and just 25-42 in conference. He has gone 2-10, 5-7, 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 10-3, 8-5, 5-6 and is currently 2-0 this year. Every SEC school aside from Vandy that gets you fired before you get to that 6th season w/10 wins.

I get why. You dont need to win championships just field competitive teams and you can remain in that job forever. Hell I think North Carolina is the best job in college football because you get to live in an awesome city and get 9 wins a year and you can keep the job.

Hell yes, Kentucky.
1. Mark Stoops is tied for 15th in salary at $6,000,000...with Harbaugh, Harsin, and Kelly.
2. Kentucky has a $165,000,000 football facility that's only two years old.
3. Stoops is currently ranked at only #91 on coacheshotseat.com. His fan base loves him, in spite of these records:
2013: 2-10
2014: 5-7
2015: 5-7
2016: 7-6
2017: 7-6
2018: 10-3
2019: 8-5
2020: 5-6
At Kentucky a coach can make a shite ton of money, be perennially mediocre with an occasional good year, and be beloved by his fan base. Why the hell wouldn't that be a top job for almost any coach?
edit: sorry, DrRC...I started typing before I saw your post. Coacheshotseat lists his salary at $6M.
And don't just downvote. Take a moment and make a case why that isn't a damn good job for 90% of the coaches in this country.

No expectations. At the pro level, San Diego fits this perfectly and it's a great place to live.
