Probably because coaches fretting over lack of front 7 depth and continued tackling problems doesn't leave one with warm and fuzzy feelings.

Eddie Gran said it best today when asked something to the effect of are you ever happy with where your at after second live scrimmage, his reply, that's a good question and NO your never happy and no coach would ever say they were.

That's why I call them the Louisville Cardinal Journal.

But you're one of the biggest storm cloud pumpers on this board, so I don't know why you're suddenly so concerned about negative stories.

No i am looking for this board to stay on topic...dont focus on the OP...if you have nothing to contribute to the topic or find yourself wanting to pound the OP...then just refrain and move on...thats not difficult to do

It would not be a great plan to blow smoke up our rears and then see a totally difference situation on the field. Telling it like it is, is the only way to be. Has anyone missed HL since they left?

I think that should be heard in the context of they have their starters settled & talk is about who the best 2's are.

We have a real problem with depth at D-Line and LBs. It's just a fact.
LB depth is not an issue. It's figuring out who best to play with all the inexperience. We're 3 deep in scholarship players out all 4 LB spots including the quasi DE spot.

Unfortunately. despite our wishes, this is generally the way things are.

UK football has to improve the play on the field before others say something nice.

-Curry was right. The FOM is real and vocal.

-in defense of the whiney little girls on this site...battered fan syndrome is real. May need to talk to a therapist.

-don't see the point of wallowing in the past. There is no honor/merit in being "real" in this instance...be a fan or don't. Constant naysayers are self indulgent drama queens.

If folks listen very carefully to Stoops and Gran, they are telling it like it is. They are brutally honest. I like that. The first team defense is solid and after that there are issues. Fact. No sugar coating it. The offense however is full of positives and good things and if one can't find good news in how the offense is progressing then you're either not listening or not really a fan of the program.

Here is Stoops post scrimmage press conference. If you try really hard and are objective you'll hear some positives. Hearing the coaches is much more valuable than reading headlines. The purpose of headlines is to get you to read.
