UL coaching losses

Quiet now. Someone with an actual insight might want to post. Your desire to defend has extended into area where people are tying to have an actual discussion.
What discussion...you asked how would it impact Louisville in 2017...the only thing I said it didn't impact the here and now because outside of TBuck the primary recruiters for 2016 are still here and our guys signed
2017 is to be determined on Scott, McGee, Grantham and Smith with Heyward...asking about 2018 for anyone is just plain silly with the constant turnover in Football Coaching.
But if you want to concern yourself with the 2018 Louisville Football Class go ahead

UL lost a lot of recruits that flipped from the school this year. Maybe more than UK lost in 2015. If they had held onto their class, they may have broken into the top 30 in rankings. One could say that the diversion of three coaches leaving had nothing to do with those losses, but that would be like trying to predict the future.
UL fans can harp on their claim that Thomas was not responsible for any of the 2016 class, but he landed some of the top guys from 2015. So, we can pretend that 2017 would have been more like 2016 or we can wonder if his involvement might have been more like 2015. The answer lies in relationships. He recruits an area. How strong was he for UL on that area for 2017?
Likewise with TBuck.

I'm sorry - you tell me what your statute of limitations is for assaulting pregnant women.
I'll wait.
While I'm waiting maybe you want to read up on some of his other adventures.

Wide receiver Lamar Thomas missed the first day of mini-camp after being jailed for violating his probation. Thomas pleaded no-contest on February 24th to two counts of battery against his fiance and was arrested again on March 29th for another count of battery.
Following his arrest on March 29th, Thomas was released on bail but was arrested again on Friday for violating his probation from the earlier charges. He will be released during the day Saturday and Sunday to participate in mini-camp, but will be returning to jail at night.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver LAMAR THOMAS threatened to kill himself over problems with his girlfriend, went to jail and was admitted to a mental hospital last year, a newspaper reported yesterday. Thomas, 26, was charged Wednesday with beating his pregnant fiancee, and was released a day later from Dade County Jail on $10,000 bond. He faces two counts of aggravated battery for beating EBONY COOKSEY, 22, at a Fourth of July party in the Plantation, in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
He landed one great player in 2015 and not much else. He completely struck out this year. Also, we lost two recruits to other schools (Burns, Buchanon last month) and one (Greene) didn't qualify. Lapoko replaces Greene. We didn't lose a whole lot at all from what I see.
Great. We took a bad coach off your hands. Go back to your boards and celebrate. And take your allegiance-confused friend Dr. Faustus with you... Not sure why you all are on here telling us what a terrible person and coach he is. He's our problem now. I would have been ecstatic if you had taken an Elliott Uzelac off our hands...
To be fair Lamar Jackson was a great catch...Scott picked up another 4* QB as his backup in Pass...also like the fact that Scott also brought in PJ Blue, Michael Boykin and McGee was able to bring Fitzpatrick back in the fold. Did hear that Heyward has apparently recruited in Florida while he was at Southern Cal

UL dissing their own to lessen the hurt? I have seen Peete play. I know why he had 4 stars. The kid was raw last year and had a QB who struggled with accuracy. Let's see if you are saying he "is not much else" in a couple of years.
You also lost Green to OU. And there were others, but quite honestly you should know that better than I.
Come on guys, you would think reading this thread that UK did not lose any coaches this year. Some of you were the same ones just a few days after another season ending loss to UL were questioning whether Stoops could coach his recruits up. Go back and look at last year and compare how your true freshmen contributed to UL's true freshmen.
I'm just amazed that some are talking about players flipping from Louisville to other schools...guess what it happens every year across the country and it happened in a major way for Kentucky in 2015....
The only pretending going on here is from you rationalizing hypocrites who sit idly by as we hire the type of coach that we have rightfully ridiculed Loserville and other morally bankrupt programs for employing - all because you are so desperate for success and don't believe that we can get there the right way. I for one believe that CMS will be able to get the program where he wants it without resorting to hiring coaches like Lamar Thomas.
You would think that UL fans bad talk their own recruits and cannot honestly deal with the ramifications of losing coaches, if you read this thread.
My favorite thread on the UL Scout board is the one that asks whether UK's higher ranked class will fall apart. lol!!!
Don't care what you think - you're clearly an apologist for doing things the wrong way. I'll be a Cat fan long after you're gone!
Let me clue you in tard fan- your post history is accessible. It clearly reflects your entire posting history evolves around these issues. You are not fooling anyone. Tard fans are generally morons, but clowns such as yourself who pretend to be UK fans are are even lower on the evolutionary chain. What a pathetic existence you must live.
Yes they are plentiful on the UL campus especially at Minardi Hall.
