How many Lou kids are in our lineup? 1?I do worry now with Brohm coming home and if true about this falling out that recruiting in the city of Louisville is going to be very difficult
Explain in more detail please.Anyone know or hear about a "confrontation" at a recent practice between the owner of Aspirations and Stoops, with the owner thereafter pulling Goodwin out of practice? Its been posted on KSR in a comment to an article about Spencer.
Good pointHow many Lou kids are in our lineup? 1?
Explain in more detail please.
Who is Aspirations?
Star hs basketball and football players have always been influenced by third parties. This did not begin with NIL, although without a doubt NIL has made it worse. Money always attracts con artists and parasites. Coach Marrow has generally been known for doing a good job of handling this. But the Vaughn situation is complicated because Vaughn is a UL man by history. In any case, a hc can't allow himself to be dictated to by a third party acting as the player's quasi-agent. Inevitably, that leads a program down the pathway of rules violations and investigations, as UL, LSU, and AZ recently learned. It is bad for the locker room, bad for the concept of competition for team roles, and bad for building and maintaining a stable coaching staff. Goodwin is gone, and Stoops has had almost nothing to say about it. Stoops typically doesn't comment very much on such things, but I thought he looked relieved.Anyone know or hear about a "confrontation" at a recent practice between the owner of Aspirations and Stoops, with the owner thereafter pulling Goodwin out of practice?

That depends. But I agree with your conclusion.Where was this reported?
If true imo we should just stay away from the gym. They need us way more than we need them

Damn, people don't read: I SAID it was reported in a comment to an article on KSR, aka Kentucky Sports Radio...Where was this reported?

Many of the comments on KSR are worth skipping.All I know is what I said: it comes from a comment to an article on KSR,,,Aspirations? Really?
Get into a place attainable like Cincinnati and the program doesn't skip much of a beatPeople are overreacting to recruiting da vile. We should struggle there, it’s another major D1 programs front and back yard. We always have struggled there until the last 3-4 years and while we may have gotten more recruits in that time, honestly most didn’t pan out. It’s not the end of the world to have recruiting competition in Louisville now. KY doesn’t provide enough major D1 talent to be the main recruiting vein anyway
I read it too . It was just a random post on a ksr article. Dude said his nephew was on the UK team and told him that Stoops and Vaughn got into a shouting match in the middle of practice and Vaughn pulled Goodwin from the field. The post could‘ve be made by anyone. Would Stoops even allow Chris Vaughn to be at team practices? I doubt it.Where was this reported?

The guy said this is the incident that caused the “falling out “ with Aspirations Gymn and Goodwin entering the portal.Why is Goodwin practicing? I thought he was transferring
Yep, just have to adjust and UK expanded its footprint in this classGet into a place attainable like Cincinnati and the program doesn't skip much of a beat
It is a gym in Louisville. Vaughn is the owner. He took Goodwin in and trained him. Moved him to HS is southern Indiana. Some have said he was Goodwin's legal guardian. Either way he has a major influence in the kids lifeExplain in more detail please.
Who is Aspirations?
Yeah, I thought our practices were closed.I read it too . It was just a random post on a ksr article.

Closed to many.Yeah, I thought our practices were closed.
Find another “gym”, a more UK friendly gym.. There’s got to be some morally challenged, exploitive former college FB player in Louisville willing to steer kids to UK. Just got to find him. Or create him. Lol.
Where has it been suggested to write off recruiting football players in Louisville? I must have missed that.We may only have one starting currently but you can't write-off the biggest city in the state in a state the size of Kentucky
I seriously doubt Stoops backs down from anybody or anyplace.We may only have one starting currently but you can't write-off the biggest city in the state in a state the size of Kentucky
