You have to be a fighter to stay alive in the SEC, especially when you’re at a non-powerhouse program. It’s so hard in recruiting and then week-in-week-out. Can’t fake it if your heart isn’t in it anymore. Seems he’s lost his fight.
My dream since I was old enough to even realize I was at a UK Football game was to be “good” (whatever that even means in this current atmosphere). My grandfather played for the team. My dad had season tickets going back to the endzone bleachers days. Some of my best memories as a kid are sitting there in those bleachers through all the bullshit and still thinking “one day.”
I have a lot of respect for the current regime. Took it to another level. But they ain’t the ones to get us to the next.

Can you imagine the outrage Alabama will have if Nate Oats doesn’t see a F4 in the next 7 years?
Yeah me either!
Yeah me either!
Disappointed. Not mad. But close. I think HUBER said it but you can lose but not like that. No one is happy about losing to that damn team. But good lord not like that.
Started season with 8-4 expectation being “good” given schedule.
Plenty of room to do it…….history doesn’t show a lot for me to be optimistic.
Sucks but here we are. Will thank Stoops to the moon and back about most all of it, though.
Keen enough, as in business, to see it’s time. How that happens is an awful proposition though.

There's no shame in it, either. What he's done here is nothing short of miraculous. In a lot of ways, he's a victim of his own success.
If his heart is no longer in it, I just hope he lets everyone know. I want Stoops to retire here but this is a woodchipper. To even be competitive in the SEC at Kentucky, you have to be so much better than your average SEC coach, it is ridiculous. Maintaining that edge year after year has to take a toil.
Yup, that edge is gone...most of the assistants he has hired lately are friends and yes men. Sounds familiar.
I've been trying to come up with some sort of best-case scenario for our season and if it was just turnovers or stupid assignment issues that could get cleaned up maybe there is some hope but, that o-line, I just don't see how you compete with what we witnessed Saturday. What a slow and sad decline for a unit that once was the heart and soul of our team.
