Good article on Sumrall and UK...
- Thread starter Blueathletics
- Start date
Sumrall is going to be the next Schnellenberger that got away. We are hitched to Stoops for another round and I truly see no way Sumrall is still waiting around without a (much better) dancing partner next time we are free.
Definitely agree about the part about Stoops needing to be fired and him needing to be the one taking over!
Agree 100%! Stoops, plz walk away….
Sumrall isn’t going to wait around for Stoops to get fired and wherever he goes, he’ll be locked up for a few years. By then, the ship will have sailed.
Wow that will suck to see one of our own in powder blue! Shame on you Mitch if he doesn’t end up here!
I've very little to zero confidence Stoops can fix it.
All the blame is on Barnhardt. Kinda like whoever was the AD when Bear Bryant was here and caused UK to suffer the consequences of him leaving except this time Barnhardt overplayed his hand in giving the huge buyout which will be equally devastating to Kentucky.
Bear was always going to go to Bama. No chance he stays at UK over Bama.
He tried to leave for Arkansas before TAMU. The President at the time threatened to sue his ass for breach of contract.
How times have changed.
Replace Sumrall in the sections about “bring home one of their own” and “staying in Lexington as long as allowed” with Joker and what do you get?
By no means saying he couldn’t do it but setting Sumrall up with extreme expectations won’t end well for the fans. Building a program is a marathon, not a sprint. Can’t predict what the man is capable of but stop with making him look like the next coming of Bear Bryant.

Well given that Sumrall has been a HC at two schools and won at both and Joker was an OC with no HC experience at all, I don’t think it would really make sense to swap their names. Even as a thought experiment
