Quite baffled at this. Imo makes Stoops look a bit out of it. This isn't basketball where you sub to settle a guy down. Now does he bring Barker back in?

He's in full-blown Tubby Smith mode at this point. You know, the "I'm going to do things my way, and the more people complain, the deeper I'm going to dig in" mind-set. Sadly, that only ever ends one way -- with the coach getting fired. But I'm sure he probably believes he'll be the exception to the rule. Good luck with that.

Our QB situation this year has been handled about as poorly as it possibly could be. I see no reason to expect it to change now.

Uh this is Billy Gillispie mode not Tubby. Tubby at least made the post season.

That's fair. The more I think about it, comparing Stoops to Tubby is an insult to Tubby. Billy G is the much better comparison.

Because he played poorly. He should never have been in to start with.

Barker needs to ask for a transfer. Stoops is not going to give him a shot as long as Towels is here. Plain and simple.
