Well, looks like the coaches listened to all the coaches on here about keeping Barker in forever regardless, but I think Towles should think he has an excellent chance of starting next year. But that will be up to him, and it would be almost anywhere he went. We do only lose one starter on the OL and one second teamer on the OL, and we have some very good help coming in there.

I hope he doesn't and I don't think he will, just an injury away from starting in any case.

UK needs to hit the JUCOs hard for a QB. Unfortunately they've lost a lot of time.

We probably have a decent one that sat on the bench all year in Phillips, Matt Smith has SDS 8-0 in the MWC conference and has 165 passes in a row without an interception.

QB was not all of the problem, a few fans recognize that, and a lot of those problems should be a lot better next year. I think the overall play lowered our QB's confidence quite a bit this year also.

False is right. Says more about the teams situation, the locker room situation, and the fact he could go to duke and play for an actual contender for a conference title in his last year. Please crawl back under your rock if you think the fans ran him off. Sorry nova, that was meant for that idiot kumar

I believe there will be more high profile transfers. Stoops doesn't know how to lead a team or be a HC. I'm afraid the implosion has only just begun.

Exactly. He's quitting the team.....coaches are the leaders of the team which means he's quitting them. He is a capable QB that will flourish with the right leadeship. Ain't going to get that here with this staff.

Surprised by this. Best of luck to him, he's a great kid.

Next season looks worse and worse as the days go on. If Towles lights it up next year then this offensive staff needs to be put under heavy scrutiny.

I hate to hear it myself, might be a hasty decision. I wish him well, a Kentucky boy that wanted to play for UK, and some of our fans ate him up. Our amateur players deserve better, IMO. He didn't play nearly to his potential here, hope he makes it to the NFL from somewhere else, he has the raw talent IMO.
