Ive heard it before and dismissed it.

Heard it again from a radio caller that Payne had to be " convinced" to take the job ?????!!!!

No wonder he has been an abject failure through 11 games. His heart isnt in it.

He should do the honorable thing and resign.

KP couldn’t even remember the plays when he was a player. I played high school basketball and we had a couple who couldn’t and their grades reflected it. Our coach lost so much practice time babysitting them which undoubtedly lost us games. Never hire someone who doesn’t even know the game as a player. Or you will get what Louisville got!

There’s no reason to believe a fisherman who doesn’t know how to fish is gonna reel in Moby Dick. Esp. when we have proven multiple times that we don’t know how to fish.

And don’t respond with “Jeff Brohm”…

All I remember from his playing days were him grinning on the bench as Milt was getting ready to shoot the clinching FTs and spotting up for threes from the corner.

Disagree.. Junior Bridgeman, Wade Houston, Jerry Eaves, Butch Beard and others pushed for KP to get this job. If KP is ousted or quits I doubt they get involved again..
I wasn’t aware that Junior Bridgeman was in on that. I’m not disputing it, I’m just a little surprised. Has anyone seen or heard any comments from this peanut gallery as the season has unfolded?
