Would he be an upgrade for the program in the future?
no.
This is a good as kentucky football can get.
You can be "demand" better.
but it never will
How do you figure? Is he going to be able to recruit better than Stoops?
Considering he was one of Stoops best recruiters… yeahHow do you figure? Is he going to be able to recruit better than Stoops?
One guy had a top 15 win stolen today and the other guy lost by 25 as a double digit favorite.
You think recruiting matters?
Absolutely it does. You aren't winning anything that matters n the sec or nationally without good recruiting every season.
I think you missed my point. Recruiting doesn't matter if we are just going to implement a shitty gameplan with 0 discipline and no ability to adjust. X's and O's and such.
But, just to make a point, do me a favor and compare Tulanes last four recruiting classes to KSU's.
Kansas state isn't winning anything that matters either. You aren't winning in big conferences without high level recruiting and discipline and Xs and Os.
People don't realize that when Sumrall was at UK, the kids he was the lead recruiter for had the highest star average amongst all coaches, including Vince.….the dude can recruit.How do you figure? Is he going to be able to recruit better than Stoops?
So what is your master plan genius?Kansas state isn't winning anything that matters either. You aren't winning in big conferences without high level recruiting and discipline and Xs and Os.
How stoops handled last year was telling. Then Coen bolts. Maybe he would have been gone anyway, but the entire off season hasn't really given off the vibes that he is fired up to coach here. You can't hide that,and it'll destroy what he had build before.So what is your master plan genius?
I'd argue Sumrall is a very solid risk to take.....he's a good defensive coach and can scheme a better offense than Stoops ever has....and he has amassed talent at Troy and Tulane thus far.
Stoops has been fun....but his run is over and we're falling back to Joker-ish levels before our very eyes.
He’s got Ohio ties. High School in Dublin. I think recruiting Ohio is a must. Wouldn’t want to go away from that tactic.Alex Golesh would be my pick
Let's put it this way- if you like Mark Pope and his feelings about UK basketball - you will love Jon Sumrall and his feelings about UK football!Would he be an upgrade for the program in the future?
Well I ask this - is it the recruiting or the coaching? How good is our recruiting? How good is our coaching? You tell me?How do you figure? Is he going to be able to recruit better than Stoops?
YesWould he be an upgrade for the program in the future?
Jon Sumrall played at UK and love the name on the uniform. Sound like some other coach we know? If you have followed Sumralls' brief coaching career you will see his is ONE of the top young coaches in the country. Personally I think it is always better to have a coach who has strong ties to the program if it's possible!Don't want him....he is a stoops protege... hire someone that can run an O like UT.
Same logic that used to say we could only recruit in state. Could care less, we need to hire someone that can score with anyone and is the best available. Who is UT's offensive coordinator?Jon Sumrall played at UK and love the name on the uniform. Sound like some other coach we know?

Go Big Blue!
USF QB has now thrown like 8 straight incompletions. Bama blew this game open.Don't want him....he is a stoops protege... hire someone that can run an O like UT.
Huh?USF QB has now thrown like 8 straight incompletions. Bama blew this game open.
Comment implied that USF had some kind of super-duper passing game and that's not true. And when Bama stopped killing themselves with mistakes they blew the game open.Huh?
