  • Everyone please write your Rep. and Sen. and ask them to give UK the bonding they need to move on with their upgrades, renovations and modernization. Coach Stoops, Mitch and Dr C. all hinted around that it will take everyone's help to bring UK to the elite level we want it to be at. This is one way for us to help, bug the fire out of them (Rep. & Sen.) till something is done. Maybe someone on this board could type up a letter requesting this and we can all forward it the appropriate Rep and Sen in our district. Spread the word and ask for help from friends on face book, emails and etc. Trust me this works I have used this method before. The next thing we need to do is all of us go to the games!

  • Hate to say this to you people but you elected 5 more Repubs to the house. That will hurt our chances to fund anything KY.

    Sorry but the 2 guys who were friends with David Williams have already said they will cont his fight with spending for just about anything.

    You want to get the money fo UK vote Dem next time. You dont beleive me just look at the past house votes. They don't lie.

    AND YES I AM A REPUB JUST TO LET YOU KNOW!!!

  • Dens are why we are in trouble financially in KY and America. Repubs are not far behind. We must learn to hold the individuals who vote wrong accountable and vote them out of office. Williams and our Governor plus several others are to blame. It's time we Kentuckians especially UK Football fans hold there feet to the fire

  • They need to be reminded that when they saw those tens of thousands of empty seats at commonwealth stadium this year, that the people that normally sit in those seats are not happy, and they also vote.

    Dems are not why we are in trouble, they based there spending on the economy being as robust as it was before the melt down.

    people makeing mistakes r to blame. So liike I said if you want UK to get its wishes Dems will back it Repubs will not period. OK. This has nothing to do about why we are in this state just telling you that the repubs will not back the spending for UK.

    Sorry to have brought this into this thread.

    I have owned buisness after buis. you must spend money to make money. Spending money on the football program will pay back 2 to 3 times as much to the state.

    Well to a point we are. UK needs money from the state to move the program forward...

    UK needs atleast 200 mill for the baseball stadium and the football stadium.
