That really does sound like a name out of Fletch. "Dick. Dick Harpootlian. Two I's. One in Dick, one in Harpootlian."

I literally seethe with hatred whenever I hear or see Barnhart, you moronic twit. But facts are facts and he's an incredibly good AD.
When did they move Canada to the west coast ? It might help if you know WTF you are talking about before you engage in a debate with grown folks. You are rapidly flying up to the top of the list of worst / dumbass posters in GYERO. Worst part, you are wrong 90% of the time you try to argue a point / talk ****. Uncanny really.
But to answer your 1st question, YOU have not EVER won ****, "we", do you have a mouse in your pocket ?
Mitch is a great AD but UK football has put themselves in a position they have been in only 2-3 times EVER. They are a top25-30 program. They should be looking at ways to take the next step not to be complacent and then fall back for another 2 decades or so. Build the indoor facility, double the pay for the assistants, and strive to be a top10 program for first time ever!
Hot damn, welcome back Antigua. Took us about one week to get **** right again.
Sidenote: the greatest Livingston ever is Randy, and the greatest Randy ever is Watson.
But anywho — YAHTZEE!

Apparently, Chin deserves the credit here. Of course, Antigua brought Chin, so …
We have 3 killers on this staff and that’s not even counting Cal, who’s fat and washed up and should go coach the Knicks.
Livingston was born October 15, 2003 in Akron, OH. Around the same time, Akron's favorite son was about to begin his rookie season in the NBA.
Rack
He has the boosters and the SEC $ to make our football program truly relevant. Unbutton that top button and let’s get to winning!
You know, I bought the story. Phil Knight was pissed at Cal, hence no PK80 tournament. WWW and klutch sports agency connection vanished. These other programs were cheating like nuts and Cal was too good for it. Turns out, it’s just that Justus was an absolute ******* and Cal lost his mind and made him the lead recruiter for the University of Kentucky. Was about as simple as that. Within 2 weeks we’re murdering people again. Kind of insane actually. What in the living f*ck was Cal doing with the staff we had the last 5 years. Either way, LFG
“He’s more like Mercer than any of them,” says Smith. Mercer won the 1996 national title at Kentucky and became the 1997 SEC Player of the Year and a consensus All-American. “Mercer had the pull-up game, could shoot 3s, could get to the basket; in transition, you throw it up and he’ll go dunk it. Chris has a lot of that stuff in his game. Mercer was a big-time talent, a guy who played on Monday night (in the national championship game) twice at Kentucky, but I think Chris has a chance to be really good too. He’s very coachable. As soon as I say something, he locks in and does what you ask. Some really good players will just look at you like, ‘Coach is crazy,’ but Chris listens and wants to be coached. He’s good with his teammates, always picking them up. If a guy misses three in a row, he’s saying, ‘Hit the next one.’ Guys love playing with him.”
Got my first covid vaccine today. 2nd shot scheduled for early October.
That dude nailed it. He was in way over his head by Cal’s standards considering he was Kentucky’s lead recruiter. He got played too many times with the elite recruits.
Onward and upward though.
Antigua’s resume speaks for itself and Chin is the deal.
Newport’s new music venue looks dope:
After hearing all the buzz about Succession I just spent the last few days binge watching season one and two.
Ok. I certainly see why so many people are enamored with the show. Such lovely people. Such lovely people.
I’m totally sucked in. Can’t wait for season three.

That would look much nicer with a fireplace under the stage.
Well that is definitely random, for many reasons, which I guess technically is the point of this thread.
Waste management is 100% on the nose.
I still can't tell you what the name of Auburn coach is and I just listened to part of his radio show a few hours ago on the way home from work.
I wish Joel a long and happy life but he can eat all the dicks as well.

Andy Staples on Kentucky…
The best job in America is … Kentucky.
If Mark Stoops averages eight wins a year, they’ll build him a statue in Lexington. Any of the schools on this list will run off the coach if he doesn’t average double-digit wins and doesn’t at least occasionally win the conference or make the College Football Playoff. Stoops, meanwhile, can finish third in the easier half of the SEC and live just as comfortably as his peers in those pressure-cooker jobs.
The Wildcats might be the surprise team in the SEC this year. They could win nine or 10 games. That still probably wouldn’t put them in the SEC title game. But it probably would get a few of the big-name schools with openings to sniff around Stoops. That’s no problem for Kentucky. The SEC revenue distribution is huge, and the Wildcats have a far more passionate and loyal football fan base than the it’s-just-a-basketball-school crowd realizes. Stoops makes about $5 million a year, and his deal bumps him $250,000 a year through 2024. But if another school tried to pry him away, Kentucky probably could go up to $6.5 million or $7 million if necessary.
And as long as Stoops doesn’t do something crazy like Steve Spurrier did at South Carolina — winning 11 games three years in a row made Gamecocks fans think such success was normal — then the expectations will remain grounded. Stoops can just keep driving to Ohio, signing all the players Ohio State can’t take and returning to Lexington to win between eight and 10 games a year. That would get him fired at any school on this list. At Kentucky, it will make him a (rather wealthy) legend.

Very 73ish comment but this was the loudest moment in Commonwealth History
I think it is. He's basically saying we aren't dumb ******** like the rest of our league. I hope it stays that way.
Well all the recent good pub sure has given Stoops quite a bit of leverage. That is for sure.
As he should.
The biggest compliment from Andy Staples was now he nonchalantly assumed Stoops would win 8-10 games a year, as if it’s just a foregone conclusion.
- Have mentioned before but perhaps my biggest Richie-style pet peeve with Millennial Sportswriter is his insistence on using only first names when describing players:
“The thing that makes Chris better than Eric is he just gets buckets. Of course, we all know Ryan and Jim can also get buckets.”
- When did Aaron Rodgers become such a F’ing dbag? Well, I suppose a guy not getting along with his entire family should have been a tip off.
- Some good UK basketball recruiting porn here - chance UK ends up with #1-3 recruits:
- I suppose you can be a pessimistic **** if you’d like, but Cal rebuilt his staff, is saying he’s going to play small, has built his current team to play small (including passing up on Cockburn) and is recruiting next year’s team to play small. Livingston and Hopkins are ideal SB4s which is the most important position in a modern lineup.
- Hoping to experience Oktoberfest Zinzinnati in some form this weekend- even if it’s during the day with a stroller. Just want one Sam Adams draught and a brat.
- I’d put this trio of restaurants, each 4-5 blocks or fewer from my house up against anyone- Bakers Table, York Street Cafe and Purple Poulet (opening soon).
- On our nightly walk about the neighborhood with baby and doggy, my neighbor pulled me over for a pour of Old Forrester BS Rye - which was outstanding at 127 proof. Perhaps it’s time I really dive into the rye game.
- One of my favorite crockpot meals from my youth was ribs and sauerkraut.
- Dinner Saturday night at Losanti for my MIL’s birthday. Great spot right off Washington Park and my inlaws rave about the steak.

As it turns out Mitch was smart to ignore dumb ******* @SAECATFAN on twitter back in 2014.
DITCH MITCH AND RICH.
I will say, Stoops has kinda gotten the dumbass out of a lot of the fans. Even last year, while 5-6 wasn’t an ideal season, felt like the fans kind of understood the situation with adding ole miss and Alabama and losing the OOC games.
the one thing I’d like is a decent September OOC game but I fully understand why it won’t happen anytime soon still.

Man…. eff OOC football games.
I, for one, am looking forward to watching us having a week to work on our craft before getting back into SEC games. Use these weeks to fine tune before games that matter.
And for the record I consider UL one of those weeks now so maybe put them in week 7 or some ****.
