Jeez you're blind. Freakin Pat Adams was not only calling everything against UK he even tried to change another guys call.

When you lose to a stripped-down Kentucky team that supposed to have been blown out, it puts questions about Duke for the rest of the season; especially since Carolina will be good this year. A decline was inevitable post-Coach K; this could be the start of it.
Kentucky is going to prison rape Tennessee this year.

This is what Cal never got. NEVER GOT. It's the fans program. Not the coaches or even the players.
This is the line waiting to get in with over 15000 already in.

re: Fire up the coaching changes board - UK fires Women's BB Coach Elzy, UL wants Muss
Posted by ShoesSwayedBlue on 3/11/24 at 7:34 pm
U of L is broke AF. Can't pay more than 3, maybe 4 million per for a new coach. With that also broke AF roster they're not getting Muss or anyone else they really want.
Crum was a unicorn and Pitino propped them up artificially for a decade and a half but they'll be finding out soon enough just how far down the food chain they really are.

Georgia obviously. The state produces more talent than any others besides Texas and California, which both have tons of competition and no true clear school which dominates. UGA has and will get pretty much anyone they want from in state and have built the rep to branch out at will.
I know we all love history but disregard that and look at it objectively and UGA is probably the best job in the country.
40 in state four and five star kids a year and the only ones you want but might not get almost every time are QB or RB position duplicates,

Auburn had pretty well shut him down with double coverage most of the game, which is when your other receivers are supposed to shine. Unfortunately our other receivers werent very shiny. I expect UK to follow that same playbook.
Good grief I hope so. That dude is terrifying.

I can easily see why a UGA fan would have a hard time hating UK. Even though he arrived in Lexington before Kirby went home Stoops has built his program the UGA/Bama way.
Line of scrimmage physicality, no frills and few screw ups or gimmicks on defense, use the run to set up the pass on offense.
Georgia, of course, doesn't have to take shortcuts or do gimmicky junk to build a great team, but it is certainly very tempting to do so at a place like Kentucky. Stoops has not done that.
It's not always exciting and may not produce as many shocking , one off upsets as the gimmicky stuff does, but it's the slow, steady way. And it's working.
I doubt that UK wins this weekend. Georgia doesn't have quite the defense you've had recently but our offense is too one dimensional to do a lot and UGA has too many offensive playmakers and they'll break some stuff even if Brad White calls his usual great game defensively.
But the Georgia fans will see a team that plays the game the way it's supposed to be played. Hard to hate that.

re: Mel Tucker. Just how stupid are you?
Posted by ShoesSwayedBlue on 9/11/23 at 6:10 am
Remember that this is the Big Ten. They're the Kings of Coverup. If Tucker is so unaware that he would hit on this particular woman it's pretty much a guarantee that he's inappropriately hit on others.
It's just that the others were either bought off or intimidated into not talking for fear of not being believed.
Don't make him out to be the victim. I believe her, but even if I didn't he's still not a victim. Anyone so oblivious to how the world works should not be in a position of responsibility or power.
As soon as the university lawyers get it ironed out he's gone. They'll fire him just to lessen their own damage over the inevitable lawsuit she's going to file. I doubt that does a lot of good but it's worthy trying. If others come forward, with the past situations in mind there, they're toast.

Never understood why people get upset about this stuff. Being cocky is his MO. It’s been his MO for decades now. Why are you shocked by it? So yeah he’s going to run his mouth after winning one game. He likes to do it. He wants to instill that attitude with his team. Newsflash: Most upper tier D1 athletes are going to be cocky as frick.
Especially corners. I doubt that there is a corner worth a damn in existence who isn't as cocky as it gets.
The memory of a goldfish and the confidence of a tight rope walker are basically requirements to be a great corner and for all of his mouth Deion was just that.

Napier seems like a decent enough dude but he also seems to be a perfect representation of the Peter principle.
Whatever he's good at that worked so well at Louisiana isn't working now.
The two players with the same number? Multiple all game long false starts and playing even a second of man coverage with a non passer who runs a 4.3 at QB for the opposition?
Those are coaching , not roster, problems. Florida has more talent than Utah anyway and several of Utah's best guys were out.
He's just in over his head and he's not a new head coach. He just isn't good enough at this level and probably will never be.

re: Kentucky will win ___ games in 2023?
Posted by ShoesSwayedBlue on 8/30/23 at 4:23 pm
Top 3 SEC defense as usual and top 5 SEC offense this year with Leary. If they keep Leary clean and don't have a rash of injuries to any one spot they'll hit the 9 regular season win mark for the third time in the last six years. Stoops is a helluva coach.

Wow what a let down that'll be when UK thumps your tails as usual. Maybe Stoops can go for a hat trick and run three different USCjr coaches out of town.

Back to what? ONE national title since the Korean War? Whoop dee damned doo. And before UT fans yammer on about beating UK so much, guess what? So did everybody else.
ONLY UT fans think they're a historically relevant program. I mean, once Oklahoma and Texas join up they'll be the EIGHTH best program historically just in the SEC, maybe? Throw in Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan, USC, Notre Dame, Penn State, FSU and Miami and they might squeak into the top 20 overall?
No wonder these people willingly wear orange, year round.
