We missed out the first time but could we lure him here after stoops is gone? Money talks and we could throw a big salary at him

So UK would not only have to pay Stoops a $12 million dollar buyout but would also have to pay UofL about $15 million on Petrino's buyout

Not to mention the $100M it would take to get BP to come to this graveyard leaving a team ranked in the top 3 just to work for Barney...

Matt Jones couldn't have been more clear today on his show that Petrino would have come here had Mitch even spoken to him.

Somehow I doubt Mitch is reading this board.

If Mitch was/is hesitant to interview Petrino, he's even less likely to talk to Briles.

Maybe some of you UK fans can confirm this but I was always under the impression that Schnellenberger would have came to UK also if he had been offered before UofL made an offer.

Yes he would - but Howard wanted control of the football program - imagine that - so UK told him no!

Go Big Blue!

It has been well documented that Cliff Hagan as AD was the worst, most egotistical poor choices for his position. He could not stand Howard's ego and demands for coaching the football program.

You probably could have had Howard when Louisville hired him, or better yet, after Oklahoma booted him, and you hired Mumme. Imagine that. Petrino will be the highest paid coach in the country, at Louisville next year, if they win it all. UK needs to get a tough guy, like Schiano.

UK needs a coach like the Spurrier years at South Carolina.

Only way he comes here will be like a 100 million $ contract and Mitch gets canned. That opportunity was squandered hard!!
