Lot of moving cogs for a hoax. Wouldn't surprise me if the backlash from A&M fans and some boosters was bad enough to cancel the deal.

I guess the Aggie boosters didn't wanna pony up.
People with no money are smarter than our AD.
What a shit show from everyone involved. Bad look for Stoops, A&M, and potentially UK depending on what happened.
I’m cool with him being back but Barnhart better not have given him any raise
Their fav revolt stopped the hire? I’ll take it but how does this look to the players?
It’s gonna be awkward in those team meetings Monday when the coach who actively tried to leave here comes back and acts like everything is fine
In 5 hours, I'm in a deer stand.
🤣
Yeah, but this had way more traction than most "rumors". I'm betting the revolt at A&M cancelled the deal.
This just proves that bullying can work if your good at it
This was like when they test movies with a live crowd and have them fill out questionnaires afterwards.
Sometimes they change the end of movies because people hate them so much lol.

Bet anything this was the big money guys telling them they're done, no more money if they hire Stoops. The fans reaction was just icing on the Stoops poops cake.
All I'm going to say is stoops better figure out how to change his offense. If he can get his ppg to 31. He has a chance..
3- things he has to get for next year.
1.- QB
2.- BBW.
3.- Edge rusher!

Im happy Stoops isn't leaving.
All the man does is knock down doors…
The latest is UKs 1st win at a top 10 program since Penn St in 1977.
Lets enjoy that and the fact he becomes the 1st UK HC to have a 5 gm winning streak over U of L and we can potentially keep most of our current players.

Hope this whole situation makes him APPRECIATE what he has here!!! No more SNIDE remarks about how much all of us fans should be thankful for all he has done for the program just because we don';t want to be BLOWN OUT by the top half of the SEC.
I DO appreciate where we are as a program, but I REALLY hope this INSPIRES him to prove the A&M people AND that VOL JERK Clay Travis we CAN move up in the SEC!!!
Stoops will probably make the "Y" on Tuesday night, now ... 😎
Explains a lot with the performance of the team and the interesting coaching choices on field.

All news is a circus, not just sports. It's just especially egregious now with 200 million idiots all wanting to be first.
BBW? I like the angle, but will it work?
We can’t even make fun of other schools now. We have a coach that caused another fanbase/donor base to revolt at the thought of him being their coach.
Definitely booster veto. They didn't want to spend $76 million to fire their 6-4 SEC coach only to hire a 7-5 SEC coach.
I mean it's A&M.
They can laugh at us all they want but we're not the ones doing Midnight Yell with Cheer Squad.
Could have been an epic day for UK football. Now we are back stuck with the same. Mark Stoops might have received an extension and 2 raises today.
The public reaction online was pretty resoundingly negative. It wasn’t just A&M fans roasting the hire.
