I never disparaged my son’s t ball coach, but a UK offensive coordinator probably shouldn’t be impressed by the organization of a t ball team that his kid isn’t on.

Yeah, I agree. I thought this was a pretty cool chat but it's actually kind of loose butthole.
Defense had some good moments. We finally used TEs in the passing game. I had several beers. It’s a win but woof
We got constant pressure on their QB basically the entire game and the two new RBs are total studs. But man, Calzada and some of Hamden’s play calling leaves a lot to be desired. Kiffin, if he’s able will absolutely stick it to us next Sat, Spurrier style.
I think it's pretty obvious who's tee ball team was a disorganized mess.

Agreed. I told my buddies at the start of the game that I thought Calzada threw a pretty ball. I think I’m correct on that. The problem is those pretty balls often end up 15 yards from the intended target.
Game aesthetics
Atmosphere of a county fair. Everyone standing around waiting for something to happen.

no Grove Street. Time honored traditions of minimal college scores and no WiFi. Give us one or the other at least. Traffic leaving game has to get better.
from my end zone, Afari played well, shoestring tackles, looks like they will key on him, and good running teams will break a few off. We will not get that pass rush against bigger teams. Kiffin will take advantage of over the middle crossing routes.

If we DON'T get a consistent rush, Kiffin will take advantage of the entire route TREE.
I'd LOVE to make him miserable going home, but it's hard to muster much confidence. It might be irrational, but if was going to be a night game I'd somehow feel better about it. A crowd that's been drinking all day always comes out more rowdy and fired up.
The line right now is Ole Miss giving 10.5

As a head coach, Kiffin offenses have generally struggled a bit against Kentucky. I think he's 3-1 against us with all of the games being settled by less than a td (and 2 of the wins being in OT).
Ole Miss wants to constantly take deep shots/crosses but Brad White's "sit back in a zone and let the other team make a mistake" gameplan seems to frustrate it a bit.
Maybe we get worked but I don't fear this Ole Miss offense anymore than anyone else we play in conference.

Nothing like seeing a Schembari in IMAX. Twice last night.
Good looking sons in the commercial too.

Shannon Dawson is an offensive genius.
Forgot to mention, the pre-game video, prior to the entrance of the team, featured Stoops speaking in what seemed like, “sorry we’re gonna suck this year, but we’re going to fight!” That’s a way to capture the base.

Butch Hamdan and Rich Scangarello have VERY similar career paths. A lot of lateral moves, limited growth, short stints at a lot of places. Not saying Butch is going to be Rich, but he better step up soon or it won't look too good.
For the most part all 27 of the fired O-Coordinators we have had under Stoops have either made a lateral move or no move at all. That should tell you something about his ability to judge talent.
Liam Coen is now the HC of the Bucs, so at least he has that going for him. I think Stoops could resurrect the corpse of the great Bill Walsh and make him look bland and ordinary as a play caller.
You can put lipstick on piglet, but he’s still a piglet. Hopefully, he’s gone this year, we desperately need a new coach.
Hopefully, everyone has been doing a deep dive into the stock market information. We just passed the market being valued at over 200% of GDP. That’s worse than it was in 2008, just waiting for the bubble to burst and make a huge lick like I did then. Love it when dead money just keeps pouring in.
Had a friend try to tell me we’re all getting a rebate check from all the money the tariffs are bringing in. I told the idiot, you mean you might get some of the money back you’ve paid from the National Tax.

Most of Stoops' modern OC's didn't pan out (sans Coen) but his early guys typically went on to better clubs or head coaching gigs.
TCU laying the damn wood to Belichik and the Heels. You love to see it.

If I were a head college football coach, my strategy in terms of who I hire for the OC position is this:
By the way, there is NEVER a reason to hire somebody on the #8 or #9 line if you are an SEC program.
- Experienced OC who is considered an offensive genius
- Guy I know will stick around for multiple years because consistency is important
- Great OC who isn't ever going to be offered a HC position (e.g. an offensive version of Monte Kiffin)
- Great OC who just isn't worth a **** as a HC (e.g., Josh McDaniels).
- Up and Coming OC who will stay at least 3 years before taking over an HC job (e.g., Chad Morris at Clemson)
- Great OC who just embarrassed himself as a HC and needs redemption (e.g., Sark, Lane Kiffin)
- 20-something, shot in the dark OC who you may just get lucky with (e.g., Charlie Weis Jr.)
- Middling OC who ain't going nowhere and will provide consistency year to year (e.g., Eddie Gran)
- Up and coming OC who views you as a stepping stone and can't wait to get out of there (e.g. Coen)
- Middling sometimes QB coach / sometimes OC who jumps around from job to job (e.g., Hamdan)
- Journeyman flunky who is usually just a position coach and gets fired wherever he goes (e.g., Scang)
By the way, there is NEVER a reason to hire somebody on the #8 or #9 line if you are an SEC program.

Neal Brown got a head coaching position. Other than that none of them moved “up” after being fired here.
The one common denominator in the hiring process is Mark Stoops. It’s always “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.” We’re going to ground and pound successfully or we’re going to wilt offensively.
