Kentucky fans calling for Joker's firing.

When a new coach takes over your program, the ideal is that they will elevate it to a higher level. I realize it's normal for them to take one step back then two steps forward; however, joker has taken one step back then fell straight on his a**. There is a Facebook page rapidly growing which demands Joker to be fired and wanting Mike Leach to be hired. I don't know about all of that, but I do agree that it's time for change at Kentucky.

Yup. I agree. It's Kentucky and 2011. Change yer underwear. Hate it when we get a north breeze.

I thought it was an awful hire.

I'm not much of a Leach fan, but he'd be a good hire for UK imo.

It will be a throwback to the Mumme days; they still weren't that great but at least they were entertaining.

If Dooley deserves four+ years to make his mark here, so does Joker.

I don't blame you guys. He had it set up to continue doing what Brooks did, and he has absolutely fallen on his face. You all literally have one of the worst teams in the country, and there's no excuse for that.

I think they'd be down this year, regardless of the coach, because the player they rode for three seasons is gone. Cobb was their Tebow in terms of value, maybe more so. I didn't expect them to fall this much though. They've had absolutely horrible seasons before scaring the heck out of UT in recent history though, so I'm not putting #27 in the bag until we win.

Joker needs at least 12 more years.

They should've hired Harvey Dent. His coin flip decision process is at least 50% more accurate than Joker's.

As horrible as UK was, Brooks at least had them competitive. Joker was a horrible hire and put even Kentucky a few steps back. The years team is one of the worst UK teams I have seen. The defense / special teams aint too good but no where near as bad as the offense. Anything would be an upgrade but something should be done about your AD as well. Basketball gets all the glory and until the higher ups realize that, I don't see them throwing money out to be competitive in the SEC.

If anybody in the state of Kentucky needs to be fired it is Charlie Strong...That guy is nothing less than hilarious as a head coach...And to think some UT fans wanted him as HC at UT....Wow....Oh yeah and Kentucky Sucks :-P
