They were waiting with baited breath for any hiccup to whine but it's all for nothing , they have zero impact on who is coach . Don't believe me , the AD even mocked them with a moniker . If your complaints matter you certainly don't get dubbed microwave fans .

What concerns me is EKU put up 67 on AP. I know the team came out flat but even some of you down playing the way we played the first half should still be a little concerned. If we play even close to that level next week it's going to be very ugly. AP is a horrible football team.

We're not playing well but there is zero margin for error with the fans that have complained all along . Nobody cares if you're done with Stoops or not because what is the result of your non support ? Absolutely nothing other than message board posts , if it makes you feel better then there is a personal benefit .
hey myopian: until you get to '0' you can always sell less tickets.

Four big "need to win" games in a row, biggest rival you play next week against a team that's might be worst in football. I'm sure there wasn't much getting fired up for this one.

Happened to teams all the time. Every sport, every team, every year. If someone can find a way to stop this from happening and get the secret out. Vince lambardi and the bear would look like a Jv coach


Happens and we woke up and are doing what we expected. Hell Alabama had a first quarter like that to us.

Part of the problem was the whole team players to the coaches chalked this up as an automatic win. They were looking to next week. Yes there is no excuse for the way they came out. Its not how you start that's important it's how you finish.

He made fun of you , that says everything about your influence . It's just complaints on the internet that'll roll right off the front page soon . You probably do think that most fans are in line with your thinking , I don't think so . We are going to a bowl , watch and see if Stoops will be back . You'll probably disparage Mitch over that fact but it'll simultaneously demonstrate how powerless you are over coaching changes . You were all in on Petrino , how'd that influence work out for ya ?

yeah it's easy to see why they over looked them. Just have to hope they play a hell of a lot better to open the game up next week.

The fan boycott resulted in boosters forcing Mitch to fire Joker. The fans have all the power if they choose to wield it.

Here we go, some pumpers have arrived... @JohnBlue_ I'm childish because I'm not concerned aboytvthe final score, only our crappy first half?? Great point, cause only that counts right. The game isn't made up of a whole is it?? This team is so horrible, any decent P5 team should beat them 30-0 in 1 quarter, so that arguement is foolish. Notice you didn't even come in this thread until the team started to actually play. Come out like that against our real opponents in the SEC and that kind of first half costs you a game. But keep preaching the final score argument, I've schooled you enough there I think. The while game absolutely matters.

@Xception tell us misguided fools about these impediments this job posses oh wise one.... Tell us how great the tradition and facilities and all the other crap excuses you're gonna use matter at Houston, UL, Wash St, Colorado, Duke, etc...

You sunshine pumpers are just wrong. Stoops isn't cut out to be a great HC and he has proved it time AMD time again. You can honestly watch and listen to coaches ans you can see, hear and understand what they might bring as a HC... And Stoops doesn't have the it and that bleeds over in the way this team plays

The SEC is as bad beyond Bama as I've ever seen it, thus our 4 big conference wins.

You can't make enough lame excuses for this coach. A lot of us fans arevtired of this ..we want to beat good teams, stop making stupid penalties game after game... We want to stop being a laughing stock. But the pumpers are happy with a crap bowl and beating no team worth a damn!! Makes no sense to me and never will.

Joker was a failure that killed itself , it was a deserved firing . Stoops is going to a bowl , I don't think the two situations are comparable at all . The fans don't have power in this situation because they are not in unison unless you think the complainers on this board mimic the rest of the fan base . Believe me or not , it doesn't . So the net affect is no power or certainly not enough in this situation .

None of the teams you listed play in the sec and were able to build something playing easier competition , the situations are not even remotely comparable when playing in different conferences .

Again, do you not grasp that a half of football that poor will get you beat by 90% of teams we play?? We just happen to be playing a horrible, horrible team. Coming back ans beating them is of no consequence. Oh let's be thrilled we played two good quarter's and beat a team that hasn't won in over two years. Boy that showed me LOL

Sorry I want a team that upaeta good teams and is actually good and okays competitive every game. Sorry I don't want this coach who is in year 4 and regressing. If the SEC wasn't terrible this year, we would have about 3 wins, no thanks.

And next year with our schedule, backwards again

Yeah boy, I have no life because I call a spade a spade. I see you don't try and argue with the facts in my pitiful rant. Bit hey, why argue with facts, you would lose then. Instead just come back with some week *** attack about my life you know nothing about.

You look like an idiot coming at me personally since you had no rebuttal that this coach is bad. Good job cool guy, way to prove nothing

It's a good point because the teams he listed have had years of wins and bowls to build a program , UK hasn't had that benefit . The sec east being down one year means nothing when taking about the differences .

Your not grasping that a lot of the poor start can be contributed to AP being such a horrible team. UK wasn't the first team to over look a bad team and I guarantee they won't be the last. Its just a good thing that they realized and corrected it before it was to late. Starting a walk on QB that more than likely would never see the field shows how much they over looked them.

I disagree with you still but respectfully. We're going bowling and may be getting a good point guard commitment. Good day for Kentucky sports.

You acted childish for saying you were done with Stoops in the first half and that the outcome didn't matter. You're never going to look any better basing arguments off assumptions either. Kentucky has played many "real opponents" in fact more than most div-1 teams every year and their still going to be 6-6 at the end of the night and headed for a bowl game for the first time since 2010.

That doesn't matter to you though because you are done, right?
