a @Grumpyolddawg move. They’re saying the only reason House came back to UK was because we wouldn’t let him out of his contract.
What is it with these people like @Grumpyolddawg and others that have to make up lies when UK coaches turn them down? I guess they really have that low of a view of UK football. The only way they can rationalize a UK football coach turning them down is that someone was lying or their arm was twisted into turning down their team’s “superior” job.
Maybe Grumpy and the Kansas City fans can go get some beers while they watch UK games this year and make up lies about why UK coordinators turned their team down. In other breaking news, Grumpy is now saying Gran was offered the water boy position at Georgia, not the assistant tight ends coach job (complete with a pay decrease and demotion) like he originally reported. Grumpy also reports that Kansas City never really offered House the linebacker job..only an unpaid position as a camera operator filming practice ;-)

I think we as UK fans are getting a crash course in the dirty world of coaching hires. We’re not used to this kind of dirty stuff because we’ve never really had assistants that other teams coveted..nor did we have a program good enough (and with the financial commitment) to keep our up-and-coming coaches at home.
We’re going to have to get used to this dirty world of lies and unsubstantiated propaganda from other team’s beat writers as our program continues to ascend and our coaches (gasp) don’t want to leave at the drop of a hat. There’s a reason Tennessee, Georgia and Florida fans hate each other but they feel completely comfortable coming on our board. They’ve never viewed us as a threat (until this year). They’ve never had UK coaches turn them down. This is the back and forth stuff that happens between good football programs, and it’s part of the reason they hate each other. It’s a dirty business. The Georgia football staff will tell their beat writers that they never offered a guy in order to save face. The beat writers then honestly believe that a guy was never offered, and low and behold guys like Grumpy eat it up with a spoon, no questions asked.
