Meh.
Will Stein shits the bed against good competition as OC and a complete unknown as a head coach.

Kentucky will build a half-arse program and piss it away as usual.

No they haven't. Don't have the history, fan support, the funding, or the talent base to be a "giant".
But they could be a good program consistently and have random years with 10 wins that tease the playoffs if they can keep a strong head coach.
ETA:
But the new coach seems strong and has put together some good pieces, besides Joe Sloan, who I'm sure is just an OC in title considered the HC strengths.

Same. That's why they should get 1 free transfer with immediate eligibility. After the 1 transfer, make them sit a year like we used to.
Agree with this approach. Get to do it once without penalty. Then you're done.
Overnight that would change the dynamics of college football and the portal for the better.

“The product is getting better” is probably the dumbest statement made on a football message board in the history of message boards. No one with an ounce of sanity would say college football is better today than 5 years ago

They got Joe Sloan - 3 yards and a cloud of shite.

The message is clear though now from Indiana. All you really need is a good coach and staff and buy in to some degree from the university to compete anywhere now. No one else really has much excuse to be really shite every year.
That's kind of always been the case. Why are people acting like it's some new possibility?

They are definitely spending big this year.

Sloan great recruiter but horrible offensive coordinator

They have Joe Sloan. They aren’t building anything.

I just read on the coaching changes board that Joe Sloan is an OC in title only and will not be responsible for calling plays or designing the offense. If true, big win for Kentucky before the season even starts. He is fricking awful.

Big ole huge false on fan support.
Been to them all except TX and Miz. Have been complimented many times about how well we travel. And it's true.
Looking at the transfers coming in apparently the Kraft's have opened up the pocket book.
And with kids chasing the $$'s talent base isn't as important.

As I said, I just read that on the coaching changes board. So, instead of starting a new thread, I searched for Joe Sloan's name and added to this thread. I guess it is weird for someone to do something the way it is designed to do.

My dog is building something too. I need to take it out by Thursday.
