Duffy is really good. I like that our offense keeps giving him plenty of opportunities to showcase his talent.Two weeks to find optimism. Let the search begin.

Terry was the best offensive player on the field in the Florida game last year. Not my fault if you didn’t watch that game. There’s no excuse for the talent gap between us and Georgia? New flash, no coach that we could realistically land here could get us even close to the amount of talent Smart can get at Georgia.Big deal! Stoops has been here for 7 years and we’ve had ONE good season! Are you happy with that?
I didn’t say we’d be able to compete with Georgia on a regular basis but you said it yourself last year was our best year EVER and the talent gap was millions of miles. No excuse for that.
Yea right dude. Anybody who’s ever said Terry is the best offensive player on the field is an idiot and has no business even discussing football.
And the first 3 years of his 7 years here was a complete and total rebuild. Joker left UK with a below average Sun Belt roster when Stoops showed up. I think you need to temper your expectations if you think UK can have a year like they did last year on a consistent basisBig deal! Stoops has been here for 7 years and we’ve had ONE good season!

Ok so you’re picking one game that Terry played good in out of about 15.Terry was the best offensive player on the field in the Florida game last year. Not my fault if you didn’t watch that game.

There’s no reason why we can’t win 8 games a year in our bad years. We have the facilities and fan base to make it happen.And the first 3 years of his 7 years here was a complete and total rebuild.

Then why can teams like Auburn, Tennessee, and Florida have years where they can compete with UK in basketball but we have never been able to compete with the best in football?
Those teams don’t have the players or talent we have in basketball, but they have the coaching. Something UK football knows nothing about.
I see what you’re saying but none of the teams I listed had one absolute superstar. They mainly play with a balanced attack with 4-6 solid guys who play hard. But they also do have good coaching and will be competing with us on a yearly basis. I guess that’s a rant for another day.I feel your pain and I’m on your side but basketball IS different. One good player can improve a basketball team drastically. There’s five basketball players and twenty two football players. But don’t take that as me criticizing you. We suck and there’s no excuse for it.
Those 39th ranked classes are hard to replaced. There’s not too many coaches that can bring them to Kentucky
This years class will be top 20 or close if all the negativity and coach bashing doesn't scare them off. Add in thee transfers and our incoming talent could be close to top ten in the nation, if we get some four stars we are favored to get. We do need to rebound on the field though, not out of the realm of possibilities, Michigan looked pretty dismal the two weeks before this one.
Bashing everyone on the coaching staff AND the players is always a good thing, carry on, you are all doing a fine job without me.. We have major problems, maybe a week off and a less potent foe will lead to some answers, several very winnable games left.

This year’s class will be right around top twenty IF THEY STICK TO THEIR COMMITMENT. I realize you acknowledged that but the way this season is unfolding will most likely cost us a few and keep us from a few more we’re still working on. We shouldn’t suck this bad Jauk. I’ve never been a Stoops fan but I’ve given the man his due when he deserved it. He’s laid a huge egg this year and it’s going to cost us some talented recruits.
Already fan-blaming for the potential loss of recruits instead of the team’s poor play ... okay.
Also, a “less potent foe?” Maybe you hadn’t noticed but neither MSU or South Carolina are any good this year. We just played 2 bad teams, and they both made us look awful.
Both teams have been ranked this year and if you hadn't noticed Arkansas has a very long losing streak in the SEC. And we still have two OOC games and Thug U hasn't been overwhelming lately. We need to right the ship but it isn't impossible.
But have fun, maybe the sky is falling after all, I hope you catch a piece of it, it could be a collector's item..
You have to remember, this is the same poster that was still making excuses for Joker amid a 2-10 season.
Man you are really grasping at straws to go the “they’ve both been ranked” route. They were ranked at the beginning of the season before they lost key players and turned out to flat out not be good. MSUs win over us is sandwiched with a loss to Kansas State and an absolute decimation by Auburn. Not a good team.
South Carolina was 1-3 before last night. Not a good team. Those early rankings mean less than nothing.
Sky isn’t falling. But we’re not good. At all. The sky can stay right where it is.
USC averaged over a dozen spots above us in the past two recruiting rankings, and MSU over a half dozen, and it was probably worse than that before we started winning, and both get more love from the "experts" than we do.
That is puzzling. Has losing Wilson really just affected the whole team?The thing that is so frustrating ... we were 2 qtr away from throat stomping the hated gators. We dominated the lines. Since then, it looks like we have the walkons playing on the line.
Either that or "make a wish" play caller for today.
Is it that or just losing the UF game? SS drove them down the field for a very makeable FG. Took the heart right out. Haven't seen fire since.That is puzzling. Has losing Wilson really just affected the whole team?

Not me. I fear our season went down in flames with TW.I’d like to hear y, if there r any...cuz I think we ALL have seen what we r workin with, and it ain’t good in any way, at all, period.
Not me. I fear our season went down in flames with TW.
Gotta win the UT-Martin game, the Louisville game, the Tennessee game, and Arkansas game. All home games. And then win the bowl game. Gotta get to 7-6 at the very least. Can't follow up last year's 10-3 season with a losing season this year. 7-6 would be a good enough follow up to last season. And then be ready to come out and be much better next year.
Let me know when you want me to start pulling up his numbers and I’ll be happy to do so. Then we can decide how much an impact he’s had here.
Guys, did you watch any of Arky on Sat ? They look like freaking superstars compared to us .. are we really in any shape whatsoever to be calling other SEC teams ATROCIOUS ? I think it might be time to dial back any name calling or criticism of anyone they way we look . Lets just be a tab bit honest ... we are most atrocious looking team the past 2 weeks . or at least tied with gawd awful Tn
I thought Smith should have been replaced way before he was. Seem to me he was pretty much shot putting the ball from the start. Wood and Gilmore must be really bad for Smith to have been the best option.
I think Bowden is the best option at QB, scored in what five plays? When he takes off to run, he runs hard. And we have other receivers, three good TE's, Ali, Wagner, the kid that looked so good in the BW game, can't remember his name. Go with Bowden and run some option football, be killer.
Thought Stoops should have stuck up for Kash too, that was BS.
I’m not disputing any of that. They’re still not good. What’s that say about us?
We lost our starting very good QB? And his backup is injured? And number three has had a lot of injuries? And number four didn't even get here for spring training?

So, you think the year is over? I don't, and a strong finish is better than a good start, and actually the first three games were very encouraging, even though we lost one.
So you are saying if Stoops had blocked the tackler that took Wilson out we wouldn't be struggling now?
