The House of Blue

+1

i get what you guys are saying but having him come here feels like we would be making a deal with devil/selling our soul kind of thing.

maybe its just me.

Are there any chance we go for Kirby Smart?

He left UL with all kinds of talent and a top ten team! Same with Arkansas! Not his fault the coaches that followed him couldn't coach worth a damn.

Some on here act like they are pure as snow but I bet they're not. I know I've made plenty of mistakes in my life that I'm not proud of. Why people are so quick to judge is beyond me?

Winner winner chicken dinner. What's the over/under on Petrino threads? 10? I'll take the over.

Thank YOU. Petrino is Overated..he leaves programs in messes..has no loyalty to anyone other than himself..just ask Louisville, Arkansas, and his WIFE. I dont want Bobby Petrino anywhere near our program for a number of reasons.1st..hes a headcase..and he will bolt for the 1st team that will pay him more money. UK is set up for great 2013/2014 seasons..we are playing dozens of freshmen and dozens more sophomores..unless someone like Jon Gruden would agree to come..I say stay the course. Brooks started worse than Joker..and JOker is a Kentucky born bred guy..this is his dream job..not a steppingstone. I say let Joker have 5 years..this being #3...and by then..if no improvement..then part ways.
My reasons to keep Joker..based on performance..?
1: He is the only Uk coach to ever defeat Steve Frickin Spurrier!
2: He ended the Tennessee debacle..without a QB.
3: His recruiting..never before has Uk churned out so many NFL players in consecutive years..and nearly all those kids were lightly recruited...Woodyard, Kelley, Jarmon, Locke, Burton, Johnson, Trevathan, Lindley, ect ect. Faced with a less than enviable in-state pool of D1 talent..Uk needs a great evaluater of talent moreso than a top notch recruiter.
4: We beat Georgia between the hedges.
5: Joker cares about this program..he wants to see it succeed. He also runs a clean program..unlike Petrino..
6: Joker is a great offensive mind..other than last year..faced with no QB and the loss of every playmaker we had...Joker has made Uk fun to watch. We were the 13th ranked passing offense in the nation untill last week..when our QB was out.
7: Joker..even faced with the possibility of losing his job..makes the right call..by NOT wasting Towles redshirt. It would have been easy to say..heck..Im probably gone..why not play the kid? Instead..JOker makes the best call for the UK program..unlike Bill Curry..who wasted a full year of Tim Couch's eligability in the exact same position vs the same team. Tim Couch would more than likely own every SEC passing record there is had he got to play an extra season instead of 1 game that year. Throw in an extra 4,000 yards and 35tds and add it up.

I would much rather have Smart than Petrino..or even Bud Foster. And as for keeping them..you think IF we did hire Bobby "Old Faithful"Petrino that he wouldnt bolt for the 1st gig that pays more cash?? If you say no...you may wanna have your head checked. Petrino is about as unfaithful and unloyal a person as you can get..even to his wife..why would you want this scumbag near our program??? Im SICK of even hearing his name!

If you wanna talk new coaches..lets at least talk about honest..clean guys that would help our program..not use it as a jumping pad ..or a playground for unloyalty.

"Big BlueDawg" has become Chief of the Moral Police and all coaching decisions will now go through Eli, Mitch, and BBD.

And btw..just to get the facts straight..I will not be running for Chief of moral police afterall..I will be running for Dog Catcher or Polk Warden..this electoral season, that or CEO of the SSP's..pump pump pump..pump em up!!

You guys really want BPetrino here? Seriously? Kirby Smart, Bud Fster, ..or..dunt dunt taa...Jon Gruden..did he really put an emphasis on Randall Cobb..from Kentucky..on that Monday Night game or was that just me? Also emphasized UK when talking about Wes Woodyard, and Stevie Johnson..and on that halftime spoke of Cobb as being from Ky..like Stevie Johnson..they did it in the SEC. Mabye he could be lured for 5mil a year..and he would be worth every single penny..turned a lame Tampa into the hardest hitting, explosive defense..offense that moves the chains and eats clock team in the NFL. Man..this would be huge. INstant 5 and 4 star recruits saying "Im going to Kentucky." Nasty attacking defense..Mobile and agressive O-line that blocks on the 2nd and 3rd levels..backs that churn up 6 yards a touch..then hits big runs 3 or 4 times. (Mobley,Clemons, Taylor, K.Thomas in his offese? And DJ Warren would become a star.)

He left neither of those teams in shambles. The coaches that took them over were god awful and ran them into the ground. Know why? Cause coaching matters.

Joker got fired?

Ha... nice. Definitely the over.
