My prediction: Boosters are forcing Barnhart's hand but rumors about Stoops are b.s.

Just puttin 2 and 2 together, but if Stoops is coaching and at Catwalk with wife, he must not have cheated on her...but learly, there is enough smoke to think somethings on fire. My guess is, some boosters came up with enough cash to settle with Stoops on a decreased buyout and told Mitch what he has to do. Time will tell I guess?

Yeah, I think it was a combination of getting trolled and wishful thinking.

The cat walk or cake walk? Trying to figure out which would be more fitting.

Remember when yall thought Stoops was a great hire and said Stoops basically hired himself. Now boosters are forcing his hand oh
and Prolly Mike Pratt too.

THere is a quote that was floating around this morning that was the best I've seen so far. I can't find it now and my apologies to the original author, but he said something along the lines of: "UK had a chance to hire an experienced head coach and adulterer and instead took the novice at both."
Yeah I think I saw that too now that I think about

Kobe's wife was with him at his press conference about his sex scandal. Must've not done it.

Some people like you want Stoops gone so bad you hope and wish the rumors are true and likely rooting against UK tonight. N ice work bud.

Go find one post where I said I want these rumors to be true. Don't say I want someone to be in the midst of a sex scandal and that I am rooting against my alma mater without having evidence of me saying these things.

Stoops called up here and told Barny that UK could win big and he bought it hook line and sinker. What a clown show in LEX.
Wait, you were disappointed in the hire when it happened? I remember everyone being pleased, just like the Giilispie hire. I guess everyone is an expert with hindsight.

When he was hired, I was ABSOLUTELY skeptical because he had no head coaching experience and he sought out the job. I always thought he was looking for a life-changing contract and said anything to get the job. I've said that every year he's been here but usually get told to go back to the basketball board. lol. I hope he succeeds, I just don't think he will.

You know, I didn't care that Petrino did it and I wanted us to get him. And IF this is true, I don't care either. I really, really hope we're not out here spreading a bunch of damning and unfounded gossip. If it is true, it's really none of my or anyone else's business. The extent to which I care would be that if he's spending more time with his side piece and less focusing on game planning thereby affecting our teams ability to win. And yes, as twisted as it is, it would provide us an out with the buyout.

Just win Stoops.

This program is a complete circus right now. Props to the players for getting it right last night and to the coaches for doing a good job at doing what they are getting paid very well to do. Hopefully, they all continue with the "us against the world" and play like this the rest of the season.

Rumor wise, could care less what the heck Stoops or anyone else does off the field. Just do your damn job and get this program out of the abyss.

I wanna win as much as anybody but some of you guys cannot really be uk fans. Mitch does not have to say a damn thing stoops knows he has to find a way to a bowl game did anybody not see stoops and grans emphatic high five after the win i actually think we will get to 5 3 with 4 games to go
