3 more? 5 more? 7?

If they drop the next one to MISS ST - they’re NOT beating LSU in BR. Then @Tenn, Texas, Ole Miss, @Vandy, & @Arkansas.

Hypothetically speaking
Are you ok?? Did you mean to say how many games does he lose in a roll before getting an extension? I say four or five but he’s close now so idk.

Ive watched the entire SEC play now. I think there is a very good chance UK finishes in the bottom 3 with Auburn and Texas. Bruce Pearl "retired" because he knew the Kentucky job would be open in a season or 2. He wants this job and I think we should give it to him.

Lol there is ZERO chance he gets fired mid-season. I actually don't think there is anything he could do this year that won't get him a third year from Mitch. And that is sad.

Oh no we can’t, because Eli C told Mitch he couldn’t hire Pearl because he had a BBQ for players 15 years ago and lied about it, and also tweets political stuff all the time and that’s just too risqué for Mitch and Eli.

Pearl would win here and win BIG. You would only have him 5 or 6 years but he would crush it here. One of those coaches that has gotten close to a title and knows UK would give him his best shot of getting one.

Have you met fcking Mitch Barnhart dude? He can lose every game and he won’t be fired. It’s not gonna happen cause Mitch is an incompetent spineless coward clown
This^ do we honestly believe the dude who hired BCG/Joker/Elzy/Pope and extended them lmfao is going to fire anyone? He’s a bigger joke than Pope. We could lose out and that DB wouldn’t fire him.

Not one person has gave me an actual guess lol


I don't think it's losses in a row. I think it's just going to take a loss or two so bad that Barney has no choice but to fire him..like what happened with Stoops. We need to get stomped out by 30-40 points once or twice more and that should do it. Then again, he should be fired tonight but that's not going to happen.

I don’t believe that’s why Bruce retired lol… but if he did and was thinking that far ahead just for a chance to coach here that would be crazy

This team will win a few in conference play but I don't see us making tourney. If Mitch doesn't retire do you really want him hiring the next coach. If he does retire next summer I see him retaining Pope and leaving it for his replacement to clean up the mess.i think Pope will get another year regardless. I don't think he will turn things around next year but there it is. Mitch has NEVER cared what the fans think, why should he now. He will sail off with his golden parachute and leave us with ****

He deserves another year. He’s a nice man that bleeds Kentucky blue. He will turn this ship around. He needs time. I’d say year 5
Please elaborate on this “deserves another year”? Is it his elite recruiting? History if deeo tourney runs dating back to his Utah St days? Or maybe his masterful in-game adjustments and defensive prowess as a coach

Getting fired is a pike dream at this point. Buyout is big and you need a top flight coach already in on it.
