Just one more thing to point out

I know there is a lot of....affection?....for Coach White....
But in his last three games the UK defense has given up over 90 points.
And those teams weren't notoriously dynamic offenses.
Auburn running back had double the yardage of Kentuckys whole team.
We do not defend the pass well, and rush defense is not stellar.

I have supported white as much as anyone. At the time I was doing it I believe the support was warranted. I won’t defend the last few weeks. He needs to get his guys in line

Almost 750 yards rushing the last 3 games. None of those three are exactly offensive juggernauts, either.

He needs to go too house cleaning is long overdue

The problems always seem to point to the top. It’s Stoops defensive scheme and White runs it. Changing White will change nothing.

DYK....the Auburn RB has 3000+ career yards rushing? He's not chopped liver. Otherwise, they're getting gashed probably because of injuries in the DL. UK was forced to use freshman OT Ramsey at NG vs Auburn. Still, vast improvement is needed soonest.

I’m at a loss, seems like the whole team has shut it down for the year.

That’s my line of thinking, too. And, my reasoning for blaming Stoops comes from the same scared mentality that plagues our offense. The system is built on keeping everything in front of the defense & not giving up big plays. So, we play it safe, of course & play the DBs 10 yards off WRs & rarely come after the QB with any sort of stunts or blitzes. Heaven forbid we take chances.

Teams, almost effortlessly, march down the field while we pray for a mistake. The infamous “bend but don’t break” approach, that regularly leads to bending AND breaking. That chickenshit mindset is an infection that puts us at a disadvantage before kickoff. When the philosophy on both sides of the ball is to play it extremely safe & take very few chances, I can’t help but to think that it’s bc that’s what the HC wants. Stoops’ spineless fingerprints are all over it.

We have to clean house. White isn’t the answer. We can and should do better.

Texas will try and score 100 points against UK. They will see blood in the water me fears. UT will as well.

TN has failed to score in the first half in 3 straight games and they've struggled to get 300-350 yds of total offense. But given Chumlee's disdain for all things Stoops he'll try to embarrass UK especially since this is likely his last game vs a Stoops.

 

[CB3UK]

It's not due to a lack of talent which is what pisses me off the most.

 

[bigblueinsanity]

We're worn down and injured. Plus morale left the building after watching the offense debacle.
