Three wins on the season—7 of 8 seasons during his tenure Stoops’ teams have been either very bad or mediocre. Yes, that’s a very solid SEC program. 7 of 8 seasons have been either bad or mediocre, let that sink in for a second.
Let this sink in- this is Kentucky. This is one of the best stretches (the past 4-5 years) in the history of this program ffs. It's not nor ever will be Bama, UF, UGA, OSU, OK, Auburn, or Ole Miss. You're fkn delusional if you think it will be.
If it works real hard, as Marrow and Stoops have shown, it can be like UT once was - getting enough good to great out of state recruits to supplement the ones from KY to be competitive, which they HAVE BEEN for the past 5 years off and on with some but UF consistently, with anyone in the SEC. We've been a few plays from the SEC East title. We've finished 2nd in the East.
Mediocre is posting this same sht over and over since Stoops was hired, which is the same sht thay was posted when Brooks was hired.
All of these fkheads that think we have the football budget greater than all of these SEC programs raise your right stump and piss yourself. You've lost any marbles you might have had. We don't have the recruiting base, the revenue, the history, nor the following to move up as fast as an FSU. We just don't.
We're still building, but this isn't a pro team. We don't get to draft, sign players for 7 years, and trade players midseason.
Look at VATech for a reference. Why didn't they reach and stay at the pinnacle of the ACC and win an ACC or national title every 6 years? Because they are not EVEN Virginia ffs. Had a GREAT coach and still didn't get there aAND THEY'RE NOT EVEN IN THE SEC, but they've got a much BIGGER recruiting base and following in VA than UK does here.

The only way these points hit home for these people is with a framing nailer. The only possible explanation is they REALLY WANT football to FAIL. They'd rather have us be 2-9 so they can rip on somebody than have us go to bowl games and occasionally have a shot at an SEC East title. And they have no clue that building teams take a step back every 3-4 years.
They look at LSU this year and still don't get it. Fk em
