Does stoops have a buyout clause in his contract?

Hasn’t said anything about this and you would figure they would break it first.

The kind of thread I'd laugh at if someone else started it, but what the hell...let's get weird!

(And yes, I'd be absolutely terrified of the train wreck potential if Mitch actually did something this crazy)

That's why they want him...he's going fellas.

If Stoops and Coen are gone?

Does Stoops poach him to A&M?

I could see A&M fans being excited about Bob Stoops but will Mark Stoops really excite their fan base? Something just doesn’t add up. Mark Stoops to TXAM feels like a fish out of water hire.

I would rather hire a top DC, OC with recruiting connections,then a Brown,or Sumrall. Coen is intriguing due to the fact he could possibly keep a big portion of the roster.

But IMO a top DC,OC will have a lot of connections, and might be able to buy a few!

Coach prime would be interesting as well,he would probably get a lot of outside NIL money ECT!

I checked out Jon Sumrall’s X account and it seems he has some new followers which Include…. Brad White, Kenneth Horsey, JJ Weaver, and others…. Could be nothing or it could mean they know something we don’t.

Who's that guy this go around?

If Mark Stoops is indeed gone, one can expect all of his staff is going with him. That being said, stop spouting off names of mediocre (Neal Brown) and unproven ( Jon Sumrall, Coen) coaches. It's like the loser mentality won't ever go away!!

This program can pay a real damn proven coach to come in and continue to build the program. It has alot going for it with all the facility upgrades and willingness to pay big money. You shoot for some proven guys and at least talk to them before bringing in assistants and g5 coaches. Although the stoops regime became stale and probably time for a change , this program is on a whole other level due to their accomplishments. Gotta go for the best available and work your way down.

We can’t throw. We can’t catch. We can’t pass block. We can’t punt. We can’t get the right number of players on the field for a punt. We can’t tackle. We can’t cover. We don’t have a pass rush.

What exactly do we do in practice?

The biggest question is who replaces CMS, but there are other questions/concerns that I have that maybe JRow would have some thoughts on.

1. Some of the position coaches need to leave, but what about Coen and Big Dawg? Do they follow Stoops or do they stay at UK. May depend on who the hire is, and does he want his people?
2. How does this affect recruiting?
3. How does this affect the portal, those leaving and those we thought were coming?
4. How does this affect NIL? It wasn't great with Stoops. One of the reasons he is probably leaving. Does it get worse?
5. Continuity for a bowl game and into spring practice.

Maybe JRow has answers, maybe not. Please give your opinion. Interesting few weeks ahead, that's for sure.

Would you donate to the NIL fund no matter who we hire? I personally plan to do so because there's going to be so much turnoil that money will be needed when trying to rebuild this roster.

Nevermind, not *worth it.

I think im more pissed at the timing.
Oh well.

If Sumrall declines and Coen follows Stoops,who's your ideal pick for the next HC? Realistic options.

Next year was going to be rocky anyways and we'd be in the same exact position as we are this year. Stoops did himself and everyone involved a favor and ripped the bandaid off.

Easier to sell a rough season when you are rebuilding with a new coach rather than a coach on year 12.

- UK scores 250 points against Marshall.

- UK kicks (the ACC King) Louisville in the balls at the pizza hut or whatever that place is now and crushes all their dreams of a playoff. FLOOD ALERT - Tears flow like rivers in downtown Louisville.

- Michigan beats Ohio State‘s ass yet again.

Cheers to an absolutely awesome day.

Props to him, made a crucial mistake that led to a TD but also made clutch throw after clutch throw. Oline was not fantastic today and he stood in and delivered.
Thank you Leary!

He was obviously interviewing before this game.
Are there no rules about this kinda stuff in the NCAA?
And… IMO, that’s a shit move; even if allowed.

Stoops has THREE timeouts left and he allows UL to run out the clock and punt, THEN he lets the clock tick from 25 to 15 seconds and THEN he calls a timeout?

What was he doing for the last two minutes, playing Tic Tac Toe?

I checked out Jon Sumrall’s X account and it seems he has some new followers which Include…. Brad White, Kenneth Horsey, JJ Weaver, and others…. Could be nothing or it could mean they know something we don’t.

Thanks in advance.

And it feels like they would riot in the streets if they hire Stoops
