I give up

I'd be careful saying Barnes can't coach in tourney......if I recall we got beat by the mighty St Peters in the first round, didn't do any better the year before that, so evidently anymore it seems Cal can't either. Barnes couldn't do much worse, plus he doesn't have as high of recruiting classes as Cal gets.

So Barnes is doing it with less talent, I hate the Vawls as much as anyone, but let's take off the blue tint glasses and face reality. Lastly, do you really think most UT fans care about bball????? No they don't as it's the little brother to Football and I feel that way too. Football is a superior gameday experience and more entertaining at least to me.
They care about basketball because they always run their mouth, and Barnes is a a terrible tournament coach, his record shows it

Uh, no they don't......they only care for bball when they beat UK. Bball is merely a pastime until football signing day and spring training/football.

In face aside from maybe Vandy and now Auburn, SEC fanbases are truly Football first, again bball is merely something to pass the time after football is over. Just converse with any of the fanbases and you'll see that.

Arkansas cares about bball, and Tennessee cares about bball not as much as Kentucky fans do

Keep telling yourself that, ask Arky and UT fans which sport they care most about.........yea you'll find a few that like bball better, but they're an immense minority

You think Arkansas fans don’t care about basketball at all, they sell out almost every game, and have a good fanbase, Tennessee cares not as much as we do but they care

Did I say none at all like it?? Reading comprehension is your friend........
 
When people would say UK could never be a a really good football program, I always thought that was bs. I always felt that it was a case of UK not investing and going all in. I now realize that I was wrong. UK will never be anything more tham an occasional 10 win team. When teams like Auburn and UF are struggling, what chance does UK really have? I now know that UK will never be more than a middle of the pack SEC team. I had such high hopes for this year only to realize that this is UK and great things are not possible for UK.
Winners fail, but losers give up. Don't give up, get up.
 
No they really are not. This program is a cursed one. Basketball school through and through.
Basketball school? We have a losing record against top25 since 2015, Duke, UNC and Kansas have owned us since 2015 also. We need to start beating somebody and make a NCAAT run to get some swagger back.
 
Either UK is gonna have to go full force with NIL or we'll be destined foe the bottom 3rd of the SEC
Offensive philosophy of the HC keeps this program from not only staying revelant 9-10+ wins and bowl wins , but taking another step. Whole thing in a nutshell.

Actually, most on this board thought we'd be at 7-8 wins. They thought we'd lose to OM, UT, UF, and UGA at least. Some had 9-3.

I thought 8-4, but Missouri and Louisville are now worrying me quite a bit. The loss to South Carolina was our gimme game. I thought Florida, Ole Miss, UT, and UGA, so we gained one with Florida, but coughed it up to USC.
 
Recruiting had nothing to do with what happened on Saturday! Saturday was 100% on the X's and O's from our coaches. How many times did we screw up the coverage due to a simple tweak by the UT offense and a guy be wide open? Out of Levis' 16 pass completions only FIVE were beyond the line of scrimmage!!!! Do you think that is Levis doing? They refuse to open up the playbook and let what is supposed to be a Top 10 draft QB sling the ball around and the results you got Friday is what happens. I love Stoops, but coordinator after coordinator we still keep the same basic boring offense. Coordinators were used as scapegoats in the past, but its becoming more apparent that it is all in Stoops design.

Kentucky will never be more than an 8-9 win football program until Stoops or someone else allows us to join the times when it comes to offensive play calling and philosophy.
 
What this program needs more than anything to be big time is big time money booster$.
 
Lolol Tennessee can’t hold our soggy nuts on a dry day in basketball. Gtfo with you’re irrelevant asses. The players on your team weren’t even born the last time you were relevant
Except that Tennessee has bea ten Kentucky six of the last nine.. and they have not lost to Saint peters
 
Vandy up 14-6. Can't support this football product anymore. A complete waste of numerous offensive weapons. I'm not watching another game until this OC is fired.
