I hope that all of you malcontents dont go to the games. It's people like you that give our fanbase a bad name. You probably sit at the games and complain and cuss the whole time and drive the people around you crazy. I sat next to some of you at the South Carolina game when Woodson was a sophomore. We lost and I heard more griping and negativity the ENTIRE game than i ever thought was possible. Brooks this and Brooks that etc. it was horrible. Finally at one stretch I turned to these two guys behind me and asked them why did you even show up if this is the way you are going to act? They turned red and couldnt even answer my question. It was pitiful. Andre and some of you others, you are pitiful too. Go to UL's site and play as your whining has gotten old here and many of us are tired of seeing the same ole same ole, every thread..

No, they weren't a given, and I know how the "if" game works, but Vandy dropping 3 picks and muffing a punt pretty much gift wrapped that game....and they still missed two wide open targets to tie the game at the end.

Stoops is trying, to say the least, but clearly over his head at this level.
Lol.

Nevermind Vandy lost by only 7 to UF the week before.

Sometimes the ball has to bounce in your favor to win football games. Sure, SJ could have thrown 3 picks. But he didn't.

Conversely, if Boom doesn't fumble, Vandy doesn't score a TD, and if Harmon gets that ball on the punt return, we score another TD.

That "iffin game" goes both ways.

I'm in Stoops' camp. But, somebody has to be doing the upsetting. Where's ours?
,south Carolina on road last year (right after they beat a UNC team that finished 11-1 in regular season) and at home year before on buds interception. Mizzu at home last year (was rated 25th). Just three I could think of off top of my head

And i guess 3-1 isn't good enough losing only to the best team in the country on the road, while holding them to lowest total of points on the year.

We have started winning and he roads get louder and louder.

Speechless, it's like we long for mediocrity :scream:

I quoted the poster who said start winning and the negatives will go away. We have won three of last four and they still seem to be even more vocal

The exact quote was maybe if we would stop losing you would stop hearing it. That's when I asked if 3-1 and only loss to number one was enough

You sir are absolutely pathetic and everything you represent is why our program has sucked for decades. It's fans like you that are absolutely 100% content with a terrible program and a terrible coach as long as games are being played on Saturday's. There are way too many fans like yourself that wins and losses don't matter to. Which is why our AD's have never made football a priority, because a lot of our fanbase could care less if we win or lose. So why bother building a winner? Why bother if the fans are happy as is with a terrible football program? It's absolutely pathetic and I wish you all would cheer for a different team because this program needs fans that actually put pressure on the AD to make a halfway decent hire for once, and pressure on the HC to actually succeed, which we have none of with the holier than thou fans like yourself who get upset at people for expecting wins and wanting our program to put a winner on the field.

Football isn't for vagiants like yourself. Winning does matter, and if we're going to keep losing year after year then there better be a ton of damn pressure on the AD and HC. I will not accept a horrible program and a horrible HC any longer. You can do so all you please. But it would be very beneficial to our program if you decided to root for a different loser and be content with that program losing. We need more fans that put pressure on the AD to actually put a winning product on the field. Which will never happen with a fanbase full of people who couldn't give a flying frick less if we win or lose. I'm tired of a losing program, I'm tired of a loser HC, and I'm tired of a loser AD that hire's loser FB HC's. We would be taking a large step in the right direction exiling fans like yourself. Then maybe our AD will get the point that our fans expect and deserve better. And maybe, just maybe he would feel pressure to win.

Whether you believe it or not. We're allowed to expect better because God knows we deserve better than the sorry groups of teams we put on the field most years. You can accept a terrible program all you want and you can be content with terrible HC's and bad teams all you want. But can you please do us favor and do so for a team like BC? Fans like yourself are 100% why our program has been in the gutter for decades, because y'all don't expect wins. Y'all are content with terrible teams, it doesn't matter to you as long as BBall season is around the corner. And I'm absolutely tired of these sorry *** loser fans with mentality's that consists of being a loser forever. Oh we suck? Who cares BBall season is around the corner. Just stop pretending to be a UK FB fan by acting as if winning doesn't matter. Because our program will NEVER take a step forward with fans like you who are more than content with a terrible FB program.

Some of us actually care about the FB program succeeding. Can you please go elsewhere and cheer because obviously you're more than content with losing considering you complain about fans who actual expect better because they deserve better. If you have a problem with fans expecting a winner on the field. Then PLEASE. PLEASE root for someone else. We need fans who expect to win, otherwise we'll always lose as long as our loser AD understands the fans don't care if we win and if they see how content we are with losing. Then we'll always be losers. We're better off without fans who are 100% ok with a terrible HC and a terrible program that never wins. It's been going on for too long and I'm sick and tired of listening to fans be so content with a terrible program to the point they complain about fans who expect better. It's pathetic to the fullest extent of the word PATHETIC.

Idk. It's it because we haven't beaten one good team this season. We started off last season 5-1 all wins vs TERRIBLE teams. You think the fans shouldn't be complaining? Even though stoops hasn't beaten a team with a winning record in God knows how long maybe not ever? Not in the last 2 seasons have we beaten a team with a winning record. In fact our best win by record last season was a 6-7 EKU team. And you're complaining about us complaining for expecting more than a couple of nail biting wins vs garbage teams? You really think the fans should be content with wins over garbage teams? Really? We were 5-1 last season at this point, and didn't make a bowl. Now we're supposed to be happy about 3-3 with zero wins vs anyone decent and one very very bad loss? PATHETIC!!!!!

Proof that people have sad expectations and know little about football.

1. Every coach should know about football basics and plays.

2. How is losing to the CUSA (a pretty bad CUSA team at that) and beating the 2 worst teams in the SEC (same ones he beat 2 years ago) improvement?

3. I want to barf.

I give up on some people on this board. Its one thing to be happy that our bad team is pulling out close wins vs bad teams. Its another to praise a 4th year head coach for that. Or claim he is improving because he can talk football.

Its hard to even put into words how sunshine pumping this post is. It hurts. It hurts.

If we get to 5 wins(hope they do), I dread seeing these pumpers talk improvement after another astonishing 5 win season. Just stop.

You can call it "negative" all you want but most people along with every college football fan calls it common sense. I have yet to see a stat proving Stoops is worth a hoot yet I see people bashing those not jumping on the Vanderbilt win bandwagon.

I would say that very bad C=USA team is looking at a 9-3 record. I don't think a very bad team runs up stats such as these below. Opening game for us was basically a tossup game. I think we need to get some of you nuthuggers to admit that and get the hell over yourselves.

Why would anyone find something new to complain about outside of losing? Losing a lot of games is why we complain. What are we supposed to complain about since we suck if not losing? Maybe if we stopped losing you would stop hearing it?
Maybe if you just admitted this is an improving team, and basically GTFO yourself and move on. You think everybody is satisfied with the product? Nobody said we competing at a championship level. I'm sure if you were to ask the parties involved (players and coaches) they would tell you that they can play a helluva lot better than they have shown. Some people just like to *****. I dont know you from Adam but I get the idea that you are one of them. Your argument gets old once you've repeated it about 3800 times. We get it dude. You think they suck, I disagree. Now do I hijack every single thread on this board and fill it full of negative crap? No because just like a-holes, everybody's got one. We all know your opinion, thanks for sharing. Now respect that others dont see things thru your dingy, half empty glass.

An improving team? Oh god how am I supposed to
admit that? Can you at least admit you're delusional? We were 5-1 at this point last year, now all of a sudden 3-3 means we're improving. GTFO with this nonsense. I'll give credit for one thing, and when credit has been due I've given every bit of what was due when deserved. Our defense looks much improved. At the same time our offense is now very stagnant, the opposite of what we all expected. Once we beat a team we're not supposed to, an actually good team. I'll give credit. But that has yet to happen. Not saying it won't happen, it just hasn't yet.

You do realize that the guy who was supposed to be our starting quarterback is out for the season. If Johnson was that prepared to take over the position wouldnt he have started from day 1? 5-1, 3-3, one year to the next, the bottom line is we are 3-3, with an improving defense and some winnable games left on our schedule. Thats what I see when I look at it.
