Mark Stoops

I don’t know if he’s hit his ceiling or not but this month has been the worst coaching he’s done since he got here. Unacceptable

You're probably right......but I can't make a legit case to fire Stoops now. I'd give him to see what Bolley and Saunders can do.

But Mitch has these absurd contracts at UK.....you can't really move off a coach under Mitch.

He has hit his ceiling and never break through it. People will say “well who would they replace him with”there are coaches out there that would come to this program for $9 million per year and break through that ceiling. Can’t wait to hear the excuses after this one.
Have none!!! Totally agree.
 
With the conference merger taking place it’s time for Kentucky to stop being so terrified of its past.

We are one of 16(or something) teams in the best conference, with a transfer portal and a large percentage of recruits wanting to play in the conference.

Thanks stoops for taking us out of the cellar and raising us to middle class. But realize it is time to swing big. Hell go get Deion for all I care … but in reality maybe see what changes mr coen would have in mind if he was running the entire show. If they sound right, give it a shot. If not, go target someone and open the checkbook as much as it takes.

You know how many games Kentucky has won against SEC teams that finished with a winning record since Stoops became coach? TWO games

How can you have this kind of performance and lack of discipline after last week’s beat down. You do have to wonder how much more he can do here. If we can’t beat Missouri at home, who are we going to beat from here on out?
 
There is zero chance Stoops is anywhere near a hot seat nor should he be. The last two weeks have killed momentum but that doesn't mean the season is over. They need to regroup and try to steal a game down the stretch. 8-4 is going to be a fight Now.

Give Stoops his choice of qbs in the country and that still won't change his stripes. He refuses to realize, like Saban did, that defense no longer wins games!! It's all about offense. If your not scoring 30 a game ...you're not beating the teams you need to beat.

I truly would not be surprised if Kentucky doesn’t win another game this season. Their schedule just gets more tough

There is a lot of truth here!

Yeah, I can’t deal with it anymore. I don’t think it matters who you bring in here, I’m seeing six wins as the floor and eight as the ceiling with an occasional nine if the stars align. No way we can ever break through with this style of play, a fresh start wouldn’t be a bad thing. Also shows a lack of accountability racking up the penalties every game, especially the personal fouls.

This is a very poorly coached team this year. Undisciplined, mistake prone to the point to expect it in every big down. Fundamentally a mess. And now getting out X and O’d on both sides of the ball every game. And I mean 6iut if 7 of our games so far!
 
You go young with a guy who is hungry and at a smaller program looking to prove himself or go get a guy who was a head coach was pushed out and is trying to work his way back. Al Golden ex Temple Miami HC wouldn’t be bad. Was recently with the Bengals and is currently Notre Dames DC.

We are light years away from firing stoops.
 
More penalty yards than passing yards. That has to be insanely rare (and pathetic) in today’s college football. Stoops sucks, Leary sucks even worse
 
lol that’s all some fans care about and that’s why Kentucky Football will never make it to the next level under Stoops….. everyone is so used to a meaningless bowl game appearance ever year
missing the point here…….saying we won’t win another game. Get it? Don’t give a shit about meaningless bowl games.

If the alternative is Al Golden I’ll just stick with Mark Stoops.
