Even if Stoops ultimately decided he wanted to stay in Lexington, nothing leads me to believe he "chose" UK over aTm. Feels a lot like the choice was made for him.
Think we need to add Eric Crawford in there somewhere, @Wildcat Willy
He deserves it after this shit piece of propaganda. Dude got lit up over the weekend for his HOT takes on the X machine.
Vince makes millions just for being a cool dude. It's quite a gig.
You could argue that Vince has been way more important to UK football than anyone else in the history of the program.Vince makes millions just for being a cool dude. It's quite a gig.
I'm think you missed the point.Why do you need him to choose UK over A&M?
I was far more concerned with the prospect of losing Marrow than Stoops, and I am a Stoops honk.
If you loose Stoops, you lose Marrow. Wherever Stoops goes, they will be a package deal.
I'm think you missed the point.
Look man, if you’re listening to KSR for the actual sports analysis, I don’t know what to tell you.Matt Jones said on KSR today that we don't have any good on ball defenders but Reed and Edwards are decent off the ball. Is he totally clueless? Reed, Rob, and DJ are better on the ball because they have quick hands and for the most part can stay in front of their man. They do need to do better getting through screens and talking on switches. The one thing he keeps saying they are good at, off the ball defense, is where they are terrible because most of them ball watch and lose their man. We give up so many open shots because they lose their man watching the ball. With that said I would rather break that bad habit as try to teach a guy who is terrible on defense to play it.
I think you are focusing on semantics. I think he was very interested in the job and probably takes it if the issues 1-3 aren’t in play. But he didn’t accept it. Whether he would have, only he probably knows, but as I stated later in the show (and you left out), I do believe it is potentially a different outcome if those weren’t in placeSorry, but Matt's version of the story just now on KSR seems highly implausible. Just too much spin to be believable.
I'm not buying the narrative that "Mark indicated he was interested enough in the offer for the aTm AD to seek BoT approval on Sunday, but he didn't really accept the job."
Seems far more likely that Stoops was all-in and ready to leave until:

- He learned that any number of Marrow, Coen, and White weren't down with a move to College Station;
- He saw the vitriolic response from aTm fans; and
- He caught wind that the offer may not be approved by the aTm BoT.
I don’t believe this is true. I think there is a very good chance he would not have and I know UK would have done everything to keep himIf you loose Stoops, you lose Marrow. Wherever Stoops goes, they will be a package deal.
Not what I said. I said Edwards is decent on the ball and Reed is very good off of it. Wagner, Reeves and Dillingham can’t stay in front of anyoneMatt Jones said on KSR today that we don't have any good on ball defenders but Reed and Edwards are decent off the ball.

My guess is that the job would have gone to Sumrall or Coen with Vince becoming the highest paid assistant in the country. I think White goes with StoopsMatt, was Marrow one of the two people currently on staff who would have been considered for the job if Stoops left? Presumably White would be number one but the second could be either Vince or Coen.
My take is Vince is a cool dude and people naturally want to be around him but it's not an act, he's like that to everyone. That's why he so good at recruiting and player relationships.You could argue that Vince has been way more important to UK football than anyone else in the history of the program.
I do not understand your take here.
I literally almost had my dream scenario.My guess is that the job would have gone to Sumrall or Coen with Vince becoming the highest paid assistant in the country. I think White goes with Stoops
That’s a guess, but an educated one
Not my fault your dense ass can’t comprehend that people could mean something other than how you interpret it.I’m more upset losing Vince than Stoops I think.
Does not getting enough attention in your own thread specifically designed for this?After 50 years, the local health department apparently not good enough anymore for our local schools. I’m not saying I’m an expert in the health field. I just found it interesting. Maybe more details will be given at board meeting.

I mean, aren’t you ALWAYS “going to have to hire the next coach and staff at some point”?Sumrall w/ Coen and Vince sounds like a best case scenario for the post-Stoops era. I'm not a Stoops hater (outside of in-game redass, of course) but I kinda wish it had happened. Next year might be better with Stoops here, but we're going to have to hire the next coach and staff at some point.
