Kentucky Should Drop Football

If getting tired of getting kicked in the balls over and over is a fair weather fan, then so be it. I guess you think all the fans that stopped going to the football games during Jokers last game were fair weather fans. Maybe they should have been like you and continued to pack the stadium and then we could have had a few more years of Joker. If all fans were like you we would be in even worse shape than we are now. Like the old saying goes: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." I would rather be a fair weather fan than insane.
I think 90% of the board has a negative opinion of Stoops and should be able to express it.
That's fine and that's probably accurate. But there is a big diffference in having a negative opinion on the coach and wanted to DROP FOOTBALL. Anyone who says that is either a troll or is too stupid to participate in any conversation. In either case, he should be aborted from the public square.
Actually no it didn't...it wasn't good for a span in the late 2000s. Thx tho
In most of the 20th century it wasn't very good either.
I don't think the OP means it. I think he is just frustrated with the state of the program like a lot of us are.
I hate basketball
when I say "like the OP", I mean a baskketball-only post history.
Yep. The first real threat to Rupp was Ray Mears in 1962 at UT. He went 12-12 head to head with Rupp. Other than that, the SEC was a rec league. UKs domination of the league says more about the league than UK.
Ronnie Milsap can see that .
SEC has always been about football. Back in the day they had Assistant football Coaches coach the Basketball teams.
To immature to control himself then.
But we will never know because we only have the context we have.
And what does UK's domination in the NCAA tourney say about the rest of the NCAA?????
You really hate UK basketball don't you? I bet secretly you love it when they lose.
Yeah drop football and put a dome over Kroger Field and make it the new Rupp Arena. Largest on campus basketball arena. 
It was a completely different tournament back then. Only Conference Champions went .
That was an incomplete post. I wanted to say "basketball fans". I don't like them to lose because it's my alma mater. One consolation losing is if it burns you up.
Yep and a weak conference actually helped (believe it or not).
Rather than losing to Georgetown College, you know Georgetown, Ky, maybe they should drop basketball. I hope they lose to McNicholls St.
Well in fairness it was the Hoyas of GU. I didn't even know there was a game last nightRather than losing to Georgetown College, you know Georgetown, Ky, maybe they should drop basketball. I hope they lose to McNicholls St.
I was trying to see if I could make a post as stupid as the OP. Looks like I was close
Oh I didn't know it was a completely different tournament in the 2000's, the 90's, the 80's and the 70's.
I don't need to cope. I can hope for a better football program while also enjoying our basketball program, hopefully someday you can to.
We just need to resign ourselves to losing in football, become one of those teams' other teams pay to come play them in the first couple of games of the season and make more money.
While I do agree with you that it isn't happening although it would be a better fit. However, I wouldn't like it though. The SEC is a much better football league and in recent years has come on in basketball so... no.
I believe he was thinking in terms of basketball (historically) and how we would win more football games there because of how weak the conference is. Although as stated in an earlier post, I don't want to move, just find a way to win more games in football.
And UK has not been about football. Once we started dominating in basketball it seems the admin was good with that. Still getting money from football and getting good money from basketball.
I like it.Yeah drop football and put a dome over Kroger Field and make it the new Rupp Arena. Largest on campus basketball arena.
