Did we upgrade a single position in the portal?

Running back. Dowdell had 12 rushing TDs while our entire team only had 11.
I have to assume QB and OL because they couldn't get much worse.
I hope the o-line is better, but like you said it almost can't get worse. I like pairing a short yardage back like Dowdell with Wilcox who is a good back but didn't show much in short yardage situations last year.
That is so much coach speak…Stoops and Bush and Wolford had a disaster season….snd Stoops has commanded the ship on quite a few offensive disasters
Last year we were sold Mincey from Tennessee, Farmer from Florida, Brock from UGA, Traynum from Ohio st, etc
Now we’re being sold kids from smaller programs and now we don’t have Brown, Key and some returning players to compliment
As stated the offense couldn’t be any worse…but I don’t see a big uptick to be honest. Smells like stoops and Mitch are just selling crap to cover their awful decisions
I agree with a couple of these points. Brown and Key are mehs to me.
It's not like this is the first year the O'line has been a disaster. Ever since Schlarman died the whole thing has been on a deep downhill slope. We have blamed it on the O'line coach every year, even going so far as to fire Yesner.
Well, Yesner went to the Houston Texans. The Texans now have the best O'line in the entire NFL. So...it appears that Yesner wasn't really the issue after all. Nor any of the SIX OCs that have been here.
OCs fault? Well, Tampa Bay is playoff bound, and he who shall not be named, has the fifth ranked scoring offense in his first year.
What about the WRs? I can't say I remember any truly exceptional WRs coming out of this program in the last twelve years. Wandale maybe. What happened to the most talented WR room in UK history? WR coach's fault again? Idk, we've had seven during Stoop's tenure.
Unless the problem is finally identified I can't see it being fixed. If you need a hint the answer rhymes with Poops.

According to Marrow, yes every position was an upgrade and next year will be the best class we’ve ever had. Just wait till you see the tempo next year and all the tricks we got up our sleeves.
I just don’t see it with the calzada guy at all. I don’t get why they took him or how he improves Kentucky in any way.
Oh come on....Calzada has not shown in 4 years to be anything like a Levis caliber of talent/potential. We need to not try to hype up things...we've been sold on a ton higher rated portal kids. To sale me on this class will be the one....pure baloney.
