Bulletin board material. If the Wildcats did not already have their reasons to be fired up and motivated for this game, they do now. Roman Harper is not doing Florida any favors.
SEC Network's Roman Harper calls Kentucky soft: "Florida is going to win this game"
The SEC Network's Roman Harper is all in on the Florida Gators, providing the Wildcats bulletin board material ahead of the Top 25 matchup.www.on3.com
Thanks Mr. Harper for the boost.
Tebow was never a very good passer. He was a freak athlete they had to keep out of weight room or he would have gotten to 275, and one of the best leaders to ever suit up in college. Urban did him a huge misjustice by not moving him to TE or teaching him how to pass.
I hate to keep “harping”on this but you are correct, Its a dumb comment that can only juice UK. I bet the Gators aren’t happy with Roman’s comments.
I mean where has this clown been the last 5 yrs plus?
That is probably where this game will be decided unless one team or the other gives it away with costly mistakes and penalties.
I was not impressed with the play of Kentucky's Oline last week. But there is sometimes a huge difference in quality of play when a Mark Stoops coached team really cranks it up for the first SEC game of the season. From a strictly x and o football point of view, this game should be very interesting
He isn't a UF coach, player or former player, or alumni, how is that bulletin board worthy? Same as you saying UF won't cross midfield.
I did not say anything of the sort. I said this will be a good football game.
And if you don't get it why Harper's comment is bulletin board material for the Wildcats, then I will not bother explaining that.
SEC, dont mind grumpy he’s worried about playing UK in the Bluegrass in November for the East. He is probably rooting for UK to lose tomorrow and for good reason. If we win in Florida without CRod and have him back for UGA in Ky…..

He didn't say you said that. What he said was Harper's comments should taken the same as it would be taken if you had said Florida won't cross midfield. As in they shouldn't care. However, I disagree with Grumpy on that. Being called soft on National Media isn't going to sit well with our players, and Florida can't be happy he said that.
Well of course being called out on national TV by a former NFL player will piss off our players. If Grumpy doesn't think so, he has no clue how tired our players are of being underappreciated and taken for granted. Not to mention Stoops and Marrow, who will stick this quote right in our players' eyes. Marrow has already been tweeting about it.
He just doesn't think Florida should care, since Harper has no association with Florida.
I get that. Of course he does not understand how Kentucky's fans and players think. I still do not understand his fascination with our fan board. Why not post on UGA's?
Harper is stirring the SEC Network and social media pots for clicks and ratings 🍺
Thats what talking heads get paid to do.
All Roman Harper cares about is how good he thinks he looks and how much smarter he thinks he is then everyone else. Least favorite analyst on TV...not even a close second.
Yeah, nothing he said is inaccurate. Our fans and coaches get butt hurt really easily. Just won the game and shut them all up.
And would have been a 15 year multi year pro bowler as a TE. Cost Tebow millions.
Who thinks UK players are unappreciated? I don't, SEC writers don't, SEC coaches don't. Everything someone says isn't a slap at UK. Buyout want toentiin bulletin board, what is the comment by the UK LB saying AR won't run on UK?
Never said you said it was hypothetically you saying UF wouldn't cross midfield the same as Harper calling UK soft.
After we beat Florida in Gainesville your pups will be the only thing in our way of winning the East title Grump.
I got some bad news for ya too, we are F’in tired of losing to Jaaawja and the game will be in Ky.,possibly in the November snow and CROD not only could be back but still fairly fresh after an early season 4 gm suspension!
The writing is on the Big Blue Wall Grumpy!

I don't break any rules, I don't put UK players down, I don't downgrade UK's staff. If all you want to read is this is everyone is disrespecting UK and providing bulletin board material ban everyone who doest have a UK name or make it a pay board.
I have seen many times the upset. Matter fact alot of times when everyone picks the same team of a national audience, they lose. I listen to sports radio and they all do long takes on it. Can't force it to happen, but does more often then not. Facts.
With all do respect there is a pay bord, you may wanna try that out but I feel you will get the same material. Point is its there opinion. If you can't handle negative material I suggest not reading the bord. Unfortunately no matter what you do you will get about 50% approval or somewhere around that. So no matter what happens good or bad, people will hate on it. Just because. Not to mention a debate ( that's what most post are) is were one group is on one side and someone else takes the other road for conversative purposes. Good cop bad cop. Once someone gets under tour skin you can ignore them or keep stressing yourself out over a person who probably doesn't even believe what there saying. Cmon man. PS. I always post positive material, just my character.
Grumpy is one of the better non cat fan posters on here imo. Tells it like it is. That’s what I like personally. I don’t want to hear pumping up my ass, I want honest opinion. He gives that. Just my personal opinion. I welcome him anytime.
I am not the one complaining about another poster so you are talking to the wrong person. Everyone isn't against UK, as some seem to think.
I like to hear all opinions. I'm sorry if I came off wrong. I respect his opinion. I can tell he is not out to put anyone down, just give his take on a situation. Was just saying people can be assholez on purpose and to over look some of the negative venom people like to inject.
Yeah he's overall good and I appreciate his perspective, but he low-key lets us know his thoughts on our place in the pecking order when he thinks we're getting uppity. I have to admit letting it get under my skin on occasion.
Ehh, everyone has different opinions, and I try to respect them all. My opinion, again, Grumpy is a solid poster, lots better than some of our own.
Yeah, I agree. Didn't mean that to be a dig on the guy. Mostly I meant that I could only find 1 negative about him posting here. Everything else is positive.
What are you talking about? I would like an example of what you are talking about on my low key thoughts of where I think you are in the pecking order. There is nothing low key. I think UK is number 2 in the East right now and has been for 2-4 years.
I think he means you don't come in here running your mouth. You do it in a classy way, which is respected. Low key= not cocky or arrogant
Hey Grummpy. Your a Georgia fan I assume because of the Dawg In your name. You think you all are going to win it all again. Back to Back. I know as a fan you want to say hell yeah. But put on your analyst hat n give a logical answer. I know they lost alot but Georgia is on a different level as far as talent goes. PS I don't think the QB fits, I mean he just isn't flashy I guess is my problem. Seems like you could upgrade there big time. I know he gets it done but Georgia deserves better In My opinion. Again I don't dislike him just dont like him if that makes any sense. He is okay..... Beat Bama
I have always tried to be respectful to most posters, all the players, coaches and administration. I have defended your AD multiple times here. I don't know what's going on with Crod or what the AD'S involvement is. But it appears Crod was by more than he was entitled and it showed up in an audit and Barnhart reported it. Which is exactly what he is suppose to do, his job is to represent and protect UK's brand not Crod.
I like posting here because of a the free boards this is one of if not the most active and its almost 100%, football post. On our free board there is practically zero sports talk and I don't care for it.
I can't remember the specific quote, but I remember a post, maybe around the GA game 2018, that had a "bless y'all's heart" feel to it. The tone seemed different than normal. I remember it because I hadn't seen that tone in your posts before and I was caught off guard. But, I could have just taken it that way because I was sensitive or something.
Again, this was the only time I could I could remember having a negative reaction to anything you said on the board, and that was my point.
