Coen
- Thread starter K86
- Start date
Golden Rule...Them that's got the gold make the rules.
Well I'm the type that will sign up to help you take that gold so where do I sign up?
There's nothing better in this world than taking the haves and making them have nots
Hold on guys, I may not be
I left the stadium in the Pinto Wagon w U-Haul in Tow. Got about 3 blocks down the road.
Stopped at a red light.
Dudes came out started washing my headlights and windshield.
BAM!!!
Light turns green, I head up the street then realize that the U-Haul is missing.
Currently, driving around LA looking for my UHaul
Will keep you posted

Looks like the other Coen thread got nuked....
Posting the tweet from UK Football that was in the OP of that thread,,,,,

then don't effing watch...pretty simple solution.
It has always been that way though. The blue bloods have always had the lion's share of the best players. I'd argue the parity is much better today than years prior. UK is getting players the caliber of which they have never seen. Recruiting has improved tremendously and the transfer portal has allowed UK to get players they never would've sniffed before. The doom and gloom isn't nearly what you portray it to be.
Best UK sports news in quite sometime...
Welcome back coach and we are excited to have you back home where you belong.... In UK Blue and White...

Now to sweat out Brad White. 'Tis the season of building coaching staffs at the college/pro level, guarantee somebody's coming.
CMS needs to let him loose…let LC have the O CMS can concentrate on D and special teams
LC is once in a generation talent, let him have the floor

The combination of traditional winning program + lots of financial boosters will keep a few teams at the top.
I think the 12 team CFP will slowly broaden the top of the pecking order. There will always be 2-3 teams that get into a 12 team playoff because of a magical season or a weak schedule. (Oftentimes both) However, there will be another 5-7 teams that get into the playoff because they're good teams and played good competition. Getting into the playoffs (and maybe winning a game) will help these teams recruit and should help them climb into the top.
Ga played their best game of the year last night. Plus, i think they would have won the CFP regardless of the other 3 teams. But, I do believe expanding the playoffs will expand the top level of football. There are probably 5-7 teams this year that were 3-5 very good players away from being able to compete with the top.
Unfortunately, I predict Oregon and Clemson are first teams to take advantage of expanded playoffs. They're in weak conferences and already have excellent talent. Add 3-4 extra top tier recruits to their roster each year and they should be competing after couple years in new system.
I sure missed his red zone offense this year!
I'd guess that was part of the reason Coen agreed to return, more control of the O. If so, credit Stoops for understanding what needs to be done for UK to climb another rung of the ladder.
No sweat. He loves being Mark Stoops DC. UKbis paying him fair. And Coen return helps! The 2 of them because great buddies, grew up in same NE region.
3rd down conversions as well
I saw enough of Coen in 1 yr to know he's got it. Opening drive success scripted plays, goal line efficiency, 3rd down success rate. He is a gifted playcaller.
Yeah, I've seen White's comments about how much he and his family enjoy Lexington/UK. My guess is White's salary will be boosted to match Coen's. Just think the NFL will eventually come calling for both, could be a few years but it'll likely happen.
Coen signed contact 12/12/2022
Think that is exactly 10 days after Scan fired. IMO an agreement was verbally made in Nov after Vandy game.
People asked how Leary could trust when UK said Coen would be his OC....well, they had paper & ink to put in his hands as proof

As we went on during the holidays it was clear some type of agreement had been reached.
Yes he is, I think he can be a star if he sticks with the college game!
Coen said he is 'excited to lead the offense and bring a championship to Kentucky!'
I have no doubt that Brad White will be given a contract extension or revision that brings his salary up to same as Coen's. No brainer.
Effective start date of UK contract probably wasn't until after Rams season ended.
The return of Coen is great news. Welcome back, Coach Coen.
That's awesome. With a passing QB in Leary, and excellent recievers returning, we should be able to hang some points.
Didn't the Rams season just end? I'd say that he had to have a clause added to the UK contract that although signed didn't go into effect until last night/today.
White & Coen signed new deals a yr ago after the bowl. Coen was going to make $1.1M in 2022
Whites new deal is $1.4M 22, $1.5M 23, $1.6M 24
Whites new deal is $1.4M 22, $1.5M 23, $1.6M 24
That is true. But I expect that contract will be torn up, and that Coach White will receive the same salary given to Coach Coen. White has been loyal to UK, even passing up $2 million a year from LSU before Brain Kelly hired Matt House as their DC. There is a robust market for White's services because he is young and he is one of the top DCs in the SEC. Paying Coen more than White would be penny wise and pound foolish, to say the least.
Ok guys, so I went all over south central - nothing
Went to E LA and BAM!!! There was my UHaul sitting up on concrete blocks
The contents had been emptied and a homeless dude had found his new home.
Pretty sure I saw O De La Hoya all decked out as well (allegedly) in E LA beside the Golden Gate Theatre, but I digress. Man that was something else.
The Cops told me “I don’t know what you are doin and obviously, you don’t either, but E LA is NOT the place for you after sun down”
So I cranked her back up and am now back where I started from. Now I gotta find a Motel 6. Hopefully, they leave the light in for me
Maybe tomorrow will be a better day?
