I know a lot of fans wanted Barnhart to hire Petrino, but I sure wouldn't trade Coach Stoops for Petrino. I do think Petrino is one of the best offensive minds in football at the present time, but I sure would not want my son playing for him. I'm from the old school, who still thinks that morals do count in life. To me, if you can't be honest with yourself, who can you be honest with?
I also think Coach Stoops is one of the best defensive minds in the game. Take a look at the schools where he has coached, and look at the improvement they have made after he got there, on the defensive side of the ball. But important to me is his morals, and I truly believe he cares about his players.
You read what Lamar Thomas said. He left Petrino to come to UK, even though he was the person who recruited Jackson.
I know we will lose games we should win, and win games we thought we would lose, but I think were on the right track with Coach Stoops and his Assistants. Just give them a couple more years, and I think we will see a great amount of improvement over the last 30 or 40 years. I TRULY BELIEVE, and I have been waiting a loooong time to say that.
OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
