According to Card fans, UK will now feel Petrino's complete fury.

[Robcatt24]

Kentucky has freed the beast.

Petrino will now rain down hellfire upon the Cats on the football field next season, and will then march on Lexington and burn the city to the ground.

Barnhart will be paraded through Louisville in chains to be mocked, before being sacrificed in celebration and as a warning to others who dare challenge mighty Petrino and the Emperor Jurich.

What have we done?

Well, its good to know that ole Bob is a little butthurt over his boy crossing back over from the dark side. After all the birdie fans got on here yesterday and said it was no loss and that they paid him his six figure salary to do anything but coach, I was afraid the hire was a bust. Turns out he must have been a pretty big asset if BP is that torn up about it.

 

[Randy Bob]

Did he not do that last season...

 

[CatDaddy4daWin]

Don't understand why he'd be upset? Gotta be relieved to get rid of a coach that is just taking up space right?

 

[Petjurino]

Come on, it's obvious that Bobby didn't care if Lamar Thomas left or not. In fact he probably had Bobby's blessing or was told to look elsewhere. It's been reported that Nick Petrino really coached receivers anyway. Anyone in the know would know that. Thomas was just there to recruit and be a name. Secondly, if Bobby wanted to keep him there is no doubt Tom would have opened up the check book and offered plenty of money to keep him here. He didn't which clearly means that he wasn't wanted here. It's not spin it's just facts. Look at Todd Grantham. They basically gave him a blank check to get him to stay and they've done so with numerous other coaches as far down as baseball. It's how Tom operates. So if he wasn't offered money to stay, he wasn't wanted here, period.

 

[JordanJ21]

Can honestly say in not looking forward to that game next season.

 

[KendallCat]

What is Petrino going to do? Offer Lamar a ride on his motorcycle and drive into someone's fiancée's fist?[roll]

Fair enough, and in turn I'll ask a question I've seen asked here a few times since yesterday. Will they DUI Jr to WR coach now?

HAHAHAHAHAHA Are you referring to Jody Demling? HAHAHAHAHAHA He has lost all credibility with the rest of the real media after that idiotic remark. If true? Why has he been with bobby for several years now? Did he just stop coaching this year or has he never actually coached WRs for bobby? Can you get back to me with "somebody in the know"? Thanks in advance...

This isn't true info. Lamar was let go because he didn't suit to Bobby's way of recruiting to his system. Bobby's system of coaching up his team is different that most teams.

Will he be promoted to position that "actually held" last year

LOL okay, let's go through your "facts".

First, Petrino is not going to open the checkbook for a position coach. He's a position coach. He's going to go out and get another WR coach, and the WR coach's name is not going to be Nick Petrino. And ya know what? That coach, just like Lamar, will coach wide receivers, and Nick will not.

Nick Petrino, on the other hand, couldn't even hack it out on his daddy's football team as a walk-on QB. He has an issue with drugs, and poor judgement. That's not fiction, there are news articles about it, and I'll happily post them for you. Nick Petrino is hardly a leader of men, and he's too incompetent to teach the first thing about any position to any college player. One generally does not teach to those that have superior knowledge about a position.

Now, ask yourself, who would know more about the WR position, and what it would take to be successful at it.

A. One of the greats at WR in Miami history/an 8 year NFL veteran at WR
or
B. The young, former walk-on college QB for his daddy's team with drug issues, and DUI charges all over his record, and absolutely 0 experience at the WR position.

I don't know what that question means. That's probably why no one else has answered it either.

He's asking "Will they move DUI Jr. (Nick Petrino) to WR coach now"

This isn't true info. Lamar was let go because he didn't suit to Bobby's way of recruiting to his system. Bobby's system of coaching up his team is different that most teams.

Perfectly logical explanation for Bobby Petrino bringing him from WKU and deciding to keep him until Lamar decided to resign and go to Kentucky. On it's not a very logical explanation for that.

Yes, they have hired Nick. Jody Demling is reporting it.

I haven't seen that reported at all. Not once, as of right now, actually. If it happens, it's going to be hilarious.

Rhavvic,

Excellent post. The only part I would adjust is your assumption that UL wouldn't accept Nick Petrino because of his drug issues, DUI, and poor judgement. That is their culture.

 

[Petjurino]

It is when it's not in English. This is the question that was posed.

Will they DUI Jr to WR coach now?

Let's break it down. Will they DUI jr.- let's stop there. Will they they what and who is DUI jr? To WR coach now? Will they DUI Jr to WR coach now? That makes no sense and is why no one has answered the question.

Now your question makes more sense. I can gather from you question that you are asking will Nick Petrino be promoted to the position he actually held last year which is WR coach. That answer to that is yes he is. Why wouldn't he when he was the one coaching them last season?

By all accounts, Bobby Petrino is VERY difficult to work for.

I doubt that money was a factor in this.

 

[Anon1658882690]

This should be easy to figure out.. If Nick is named WR coach,, they're telling the truth somewhat.. If anyone other than Nick is named the WR coach,, everyone saying he called the plays are full of Loserville sewer ****.. Which I think will be the poopoo smell..

"Will they they what and who is DUI Jr?" Seriously guy?

How the hell are you gonna come over here and criticize anybody's sentence structure, then type something like "Will they they what and who is DUI Jr" as you're critiquing that person?

Not only are you a complete tool and a mindless drone for any of the drivel that Jody friggin' Demling spews, but you're an idiot too? Probably got that degree from Louisville. Probably a master's degree from Louisville as well, to beat it all.

This is an honest question because I don't know. Does BP have a good track record of his coaches moving on to bigger and better coaching jobs? I know that in the very short time that Stoops has been a head coach, several of his assistants have taken head coaching jobs of similar jobs with higher profile teams. It could be possible that Thomas made a lateral move to better position himself for a future promotion.

Come on Bozo Nick Junior wasn't coaching the Wide Receivers are you really that stupid? I guess you are..What a maroon..look that up.

 

[ville 77]

I don't think they will name Nick as WR coach this time because he is young and still learning but you guys are wrong in assuming he was not heavly involved with coaching the WR's. I went to the open practices and he was doing more hands on coaching than Lamar. In the first year Will Stein was working with the Wr's. Thomas might turn out to be a great coach at UK for all I know.

As for Nick you guys are trying to hold his youthful mistakes from 5 -10 years ago in HS and college against him. Truth be told many of us did dumb things back in HS and college and probably did not get caught.

In the practices I saw he is working very hard and in time I expect him to move up the coaching ladder. Finally you do not have to play a postion to coach players in the routes and and what the offense needs from WR's. Truth ius Nick probably knows the offense better than Lamar since Trinity used part of it and he has worked in it for far more years.

The thing Lamar can be bring is Experience from the position but that is different from teaching the offense.

Remember this guys most of the best coaches were not great players. That is why they become coaches.

Right...his experience at running the Trinity offense allows him to know the UL offense from a WR perspective so much better than someone who actually PLAYED WR at high D1 and the pro's. The spin is out of control. Thomas has his pro's and Cons. But Petrino didn't have him on his staffs at two different schools over the last 4 years because he couldn't coach at all.

Maybe he was there simply as a recruiter. Wouldn't be the first time and won't be the last.

 

[KendallCat]

Does Petrino have any additional family members he can add to his staff. We have seen it here with Tubby, Rick with his son, and others, and never fails when you put your kid ahead of the team/program you get exactly what you deserve. If they were that good and that qualified they would get hired away and not hide behind daddy.

[3kidsandme]

Nick Petrino assisted Thomas with the wr. That is what all GAs do. Louisville fans are obviously gonna spin **** how they want. To be honest idc what they say he is no longer a card and little Nicky can continue to work for free. UK is recruiting well we have great facilities and now we have two very good offensive coordinators who cares about a team from the worst power 5 conference.

 

[docholiday51]

It remains to be seen what he brings to the table.The direct move from UL to UK is interesting,you know he had to have some understanding of the perceived ramifications of such a move. After the scene at mid field 2 years ago you know Stoops' went this direction with eyes wide open and a little "take that Bob" on the side.

All the moves Stoops has made in the off season thus far have to be seen as upgrades,this one may not be as clear cut as the rest but we will find out quickly.He(Stoops) seems to be going all in to give this season his best shot

I was told first hand from someone who worked for him that he is psycho.

Hardest dude to work for this person had ever seen.

 

[Kats23]

Think both sides are going a little overboard for a position coach. He's a good recruiter with good ties to the state of Florida. That's terrific for UK but at the end of the day, he's a position coach. You don't break out the wallet for any minor coaching position. If he stayed or went, I don't think it's any skin off Petrino's nose honestly.
