While I think he's put together a pretty good team...........I simply cannot shake the feeling of the past two years. It wasn't just record wise but the getting down big in a ton of games............too many games where we were simply uncompetitive from the tip. That's alarming to me...
There's really no need for a committee .........at all.

You can't lead for everyone. This one guy in of itself isn't the...
Sure only one team can win the national title each year. But I think they meant, do we have a roster that can contend for national championships and in that regard it's usually 6 to 10 teams. Obviously it's not realistic to be in that category every year but at UK we should be in that...
Yeah I feel like people just say he's a good coach as a way of mitigating the fact that he has definitely not recruited well here or at a level we are used to. Kinda like the opposite of Cal. People would always say "great recruiter, bad coach"............yet I think he was actually a pretty...
