Ive shown my Georgia and Alabama buddies the posts on here with folks saying five wins this season is OK and they both just laughed their *** off at them.
Is there a fanbase worse than ours

- Start date
But we've already won 3 games. That's your argument? No we lost 3 games should be the answer. One of which should never have been close to begin with. Yes we are spose to be SEC, then why aren't we. I will tell you why, Barney and some past AD's are selfish and just love BB. We need an AD that like's FB also, not just token play.
Look at the SEC as a whole 2 teams are BB only schools and guess where they are,UK, Vandy. The 2 worst teams in the conf. There is a reason for that, we don't have an AD that takes football serious. Barney has been here long enough to have a very good if not a great coach on duty. If it's go on longer than 10 years it's been 7 years to long.
Now to Stoop's, I loved the hire at the beginning and thought he was a decent hire, not great but decent. Has not worked out yet, it's to the tipping point with me. I think he is a very good DC and a good recruiter. Just my opinion but so far I have just about given up on him ever making UK any better than it's past history.
I know my post count is low but that's fine by me, cause I don't like to see some one come on here and put down others that they don't even know much less met. I have been a paid account in the past, had to give it up a few years ago for health reasons forcing me to have to stop working. I love UK sports and FB in my favorite, but I like all of their teams. I will give Stoops till the end of season to win me over for this year. So far it looks like the experiment has failed. I just can't watch pitiful FB and like it, sorry. If we don't win at least 6 he needs to pack his bags and go. I would love to see at least 7 wins and a bowl win. Is that asking to much?
Yes the D has shown improvement but is still not up to SEC standards. The very least he has to change the DC, DL, and OL coaches. The clock is ticking to keep the fans in the seats and people that are not physically able to attend happy. Get it done Barney or else the fans will do it for you again. Go BB

And you think playing 3 top 5 teams is a softer schedule than playing in the SEC east?
It is because the internet lets people hide and become tough guys without any risk of harm. Complaining is one thing, but behaving poorly is another.
All programs have these types of fans. For us and football, it is just frustration.
That is every where. The population likes a juicy story for of inaccuracies over a boring truth any day.
Example: Look at our 2 presidential candidates and then look at fact checking against what they say. Depending on who you support, you will find fault with the other's lies overlook your candidate's mistruths.
Once again, a thread bashing our own fans, because we dare question if this coaching staff and AD is the answer. I see less trolls, than I see a Barnhart's flying monkeys infestation.
You can talk tough about what you demand out of a football program but means about as much as what I'm about to type, which is nothing (mainly because I'm sure you have no interest in true discussion).
This program has sucked for decades. Changing that is not going to happen overnight, no matter how high YOU set your standards. Yes, we're in year four and short of 1 second half meltdown the team has acheived what everyone thought was possible. Yes, the game Saturday was ugly and kind of embarassing. But it was a conference win with a backup QB, something UK hasn't accomplished very often. And it was a win that UK needed. It's ok to celebrate those.
UK isn't going to wake up one day and be a dominating football team, we have to celebrate every victory and hope that the team gains confidence from them, yes, even the games against Vandy where it looks ugly.
Serious question. Do you believe we are going to win 3 more games?
Hush. This is year 4. Stay the course. Channel your inner pumper. Vegas had us set at 5 games this year. We are on pace to do that. All is well in the bluegrass. Don't question anything.
Different question...is there a fan base better with the neglect that had been given to a sport we love..? THE FANS HAVE ALWAYS been there and had to put up with a certain segment of the fan base that is against fb altogether.
It sure about that. This SEC east is the absolute weakest I've seen. I'm not even sure how it happened.
What is this, the flavor of the week, thought you said USCe was the worst when we beat them, will MSU be next?
What an insanely wrong posts 99% backs our AD for making horrible football hire's time after time? Is that a joke!? Sure hope so. A lot of our fans, unlike you. Are NOT ok with sucking at football, we're just simply not ok with it. We EXPECT and DESERVE better. I know you're content with barely beating 2 of the worst teams in our conference by the skin of our teeth and as long as we do that all as well. But a lot of our fans expect more than that. And there's nothing wrong with that.
Both team. SC. And vandy. Are garbage. And both are pretty much just as terrible as eachother with us not very far ahead of them. Both suck. I don't remember saying what you claim. But I have said they're horrible. Just because SC is horrible doesn't mean vandy isn't. By any means.
Also. Btw. The SC game was battle of worst team in the SEC. Same with vandy game. If we lose either of those games then we pretty much earn title of worst team in conference.
It's as simple as this. SC beat vandy. We beat SC. Say if we hypothetically lost to Vandy. It would look something sorta like this UK>USC>Vandy>UK. At that point we'd have arguably been worst team in SEC. Since we beat Vandy though and since they lost to us and SC. They're now the worst team in the SEC. With us and SC not far ahead.
Every fan base has those 10-20% that are either always positive or always negative. UK is no exception to this. Its just how fans are.
LOL
How many times in the past 38 years have either one SUNK to breaking even in the SEC, pretty sure UK has RISEN to that level THREE times.
And have NEVER exceeded it in those 38 years.
