Billy G without a doubt. I had season tickets and quit going to the games after the first three. Also to find out later some of his antics besides holding a full practice two hours before a game was too much. I hope he nevers gets a coaching job again, although I'm sure he's suckered someone into giving him a shot.
That 94 team had beaten 3 of the 4 final four teams that year. Arizona in Maui, Florida on senior night and the sec tournament finals, and Arkansas in the sec semi's.
I'm betting you're not a math major and haven't seen much daylight in that holler..Ten Loss was in over his head from day one. He averaged 10 losses per season during lost decade. He was a lazy recruiter and an inept coach.
Tubby was never in over his head. Billy G was the definition of that. However tubby was a "I can tread water fine, why learn to swim better?" type.
Joker was a bad idea from the start, I'm never a fan of teams giving the alumni bonus points. Joker wouldn't be HC for any other SEC program, so why would he be ours? And when we lost to a team in a bowl who didn't even have a coach until 2 days before, I was 100% done.
Kelvin Sampson was also a laugher. That's like dating a girl that you know has cheated on all her boyfriends, and you somehow expect her to not cheat on you. Delusional.
Lane Kiffin to anywhere. He is not HC material. He's okay as an OC. His best skill is having a dad named Monte.
Muschamp looked like a dumb hire from the start. He was just all HERF PERF TOUGH GUY HURRR with nothing substantial to back it, it felt like.
I didn't have any knowledge of his coaching, but Derek Dooley? Ok, so his dad was good. If his name was Derek Smith, would you have hired him? Similar to the Joker and Kiffin situation, I HATE HATE HATE when people get bonus points for a famous name or alumni of a school.
I will say I was dead ass wrong about John Harbaugh. He didn't play the game to the level his brother did. He'd never even held a coordinator position except special teams, mostly a position coach. That plus the name made it feel like a stretch. Turns out he can really coach.
I didn't "know" Billy G was going to be bad, but I felt like he was a second tier hire.
Yeah, because that 35-4 National Title year just screamed "incompetence".
Go away, you racist idiot.
I don't know who lobbyman is, but it has struck me as "funny" every time some one is critical of Tubby as a coach, the first thing many want to say is that person is "racist". Well, I personally think the person who makes that criticism is the racist person - again without knowing who anyone is. How many elite eights has Tubby been too when not coaching a team named Kentucky? The answer is "0". How many sweet sixteens did he make it to? The answer is "2" and he lost both of them. Take away his years at Kentucky and his record is solid, but not great. So, to say he was not the right guy to lead Kentucky has been proven. Think about this one - Billy Gillespie's, non Kentucky record is as strong if not stronger than Tubby Smith's record was. Tubby has NOT won another NCAA game after leaving Kentucky. So to those who think Tubby was mistreated as a coach - check the records before you criticise people.Yeah, because that 35-4 National Title year just screamed "incompetence".
Go away, you racist idiot.
Three have a ring but only one went to the NCAA's every year winning at least once every year in Lexington. Name him.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a Hillary loving liberal on board...
In the modern, left-wing dicitonary:
Racist = Conservative winning an argument.
Sexist = Conservative winning an argument.
Homophobe = Conservative winning an argument.
I could go on and on.
Monday Morning Quarterback?Gillispie from near day 1,if you didn't see that you weren't paying attention.
Not really,I was one of the first and biggest critics of BCG.He didn't fit on so many levels it is hard to count them all.Monday Morning Quarterback?
Based on what? Your prescience?Tubby ... the man who nominally owns an NCAA title, but only because of his predecessor. Anybody who watched Tubby's teams at Tulsa and Georgia could have predicted "the Tubby years" at U.K.
Ladies and gentleman, we have an inbred moron who screams bloody murder any time anyone hints that someone's viewpoint might be just a tad bit racist. Because, you know, that never, ever happens, and racism would completely vanish if assholes like me would just stop talking about the possibility of it existing.Ladies and gentlemen, we have a Hillary loving liberal on board...
There's a TON in his posting history that does. Especially the fact that all he ever posts about (going back years now) is how awful Tubby Smith was, and how he was only ever hired because he was black- the crux of his problem with Tubby, entirely centered around race.For God's sake people, can we refrain from pulling the race card for no reason? I think lobbyman is wrong too, but there's nothing in his post the even faintly hints at racism. Grow up.

Deal with it. There are UK fans that hated Tubby Smith from the second he was hired, or were certainly looking for the first good opportunity to do so. Deny it, but you know it's a fact. Some of those people are going to post on this board. If lobbyman isn't one of them, he does a damn good imitation.
Tubby Smith, to someone like lobbyman, isn't even an ex-UK coach. He's a pedestal to demonstrate the evils of affirmative action (and maybe, depending, on the entire Civil Rights Movement). It's not some logical discussion about the unworthiness of Tubby Smith as a coach, it's purely race-based politics.
And if that's what he wants, I won't soft-pedal how I view that.
