    Stoops gets the last laugh

    You are just divorced from reality and determined to stay that way. I have never turned a blind eye to problems in the program. Every program has them. Your suggestion that posters who push back against your compulsively unrealistic criticisms "are getting free tickets or kickbacks" is just...

    State of 2025 Recruiting

    There has been some good public evidence that UK's defensive coaches view Lennon as an edge LB prospect. But Coach Marrow, his primary recruiter, is our TE coach, and Lennon has TE size and tools as well.

    State of 2024 Recruiting

    Anfernee Crease, OL, Navarro JC, Corsicana, TX Another late addition to our 2024 recruiting class. Crease is a flip from SMU. He is being recruited by Coach Wolford. UK is his only SEC offer, and one of only three Power 5 offers. You might ask, then, why UK is taking him. And there is a...

    Stoops gets the last laugh

    It's your version. It is not actual reality. In actual reality, Stoops is the winningest coach in UK football history and Bruce Feldman, the senior football writer at The Athletic, says Stoops is one of the 15 beat college football coaches in the country. Stoops is clearly not on the hot...

    Any talk about position groups that need some new blood via portal?

    I only said we could use one more receiver with multiple years of eligibility. I did not say the receiver room is not deeper than before, or that Gilmore is not a good player. In the SEC, where the passing game is a meal ticket, you ideally need even stronger receiver depth than we have now...

    Stoops gets the last laugh

    The last time UK enjoyed this level of football success, we got major NCAA sanctions and Curci had to be fired. You generally take negative narratives on Stoops and Barnhart. That is your bias, and props to you for being so consistent. You aren't a fair weather fan. Just a negative one. But...

    Any talk about position groups that need some new blood via portal?

    Interesting. UK's official website has him at 283# this spring. Generally they are the most reliable source for this.

    Any talk about position groups that need some new blood via portal?

    Jantzen Dunn's and Jaremiah Anglin's spring performances have reduced the coaches' concerns at CB, and our RB room is in good shape with Trayanum, DSK, Patterson, and Wilcox. We could take one more of each from the spring portal, but only if the addition presents a clear upgrade at the...

    Stoops gets the last laugh

    Bruce Feldman, a senior writer for The Athletic, has covered college football nationally for 20 years. Feldman says Mark Stoops is one of the top 15 college football coaches in the country, and he reiterated his opinion last month on Paul Finebaum's show. Feldman says Stoops doesn't get a fair...

    Javeon Campbell 2025 Edge, Western Hills HS, Frankfort KY

    Not for players. There is still a limit for schools, but it has increased.

    Javeon Campbell 2025 Edge, Western Hills HS, Frankfort KY

    Yes, for the reasons you described, UK is a tough sell for Brandon Caesar, compared to OH St. But as long as we can get an OV from him, we are in the ball game. A caveat. We can hope that Caesar's OH St offer becomes uncommittable because of their recruitments of other DL prospects. That is...

    Javeon Campbell 2025 Edge, Western Hills HS, Frankfort KY

    I live in Georgetown. Publicly available information tells us he likes UK, OH St, and GA right now, although he will apparently take at least 7-8 OVs. Apparently he is still relatively early in the recruitment process. Although he has said he wants to commit during the summer, he has blown up...

    State of 2025 Recruiting

    Except that is not what happens every year. I can point out many other drafts that have not upheld your belief, but you already know that. We can go back and forth, but this boils down to what you want to believe. There is no standardization in star ratings or in the loose process that...

    State of 2025 Recruiting

    No doubt about that. The positions that typically require the longest period of development are understandably the toughest to predict, and OL is very high on that list. The interior DL positions can be, too, but Deone Walker shows that isn't always the case. Deone was huge when he got here...
