Some Interesting Kentucky Tidbits

Juniors Jeremy Jarmon, Trevard Lindley, and Micah Johnson will all be returning to UK after testing draft waters. Should bode well for the defense next year.

Also, Randy Sanders has been promoted to Offensive Coordinator at UK, and will share duties with Coach-in-Waiting Joker Phillips, whose title has been upgraded to "Head Offensive Coach." Basically, they will just perform the same duties as before, just a title and pay upgrade, ensuring that Sanders stays at UK for a good long while.

Not to be rude, but I do. After all, it's the NCAA Forum.

Get off your throne, popcorn.

seeing how UK feels about Sanders makes me further believe Fulmer kept about a 1/2" leash on him and then made him the scapegoat for a failed season and is very interesting to me.

Jarmon is a man, but Micah Johnson is too slow to play LB in the NFL.

Lindley will really benefit from an extra year of college ball. He was projected 2nd-3rd round as a junior. Glad to see him stick around.

Seriously, I haven't paid enough attention to Johnson to evaluate. Does that mean he is destined for the D-line or a career in library sciences?

I respectfully disagree with Lexvol's assessment, having seen Micah play enough to think he can definitely cut it. After all, he is 1st-Team SEC. It's ok.

Michael Munoz was 1st Team All SEC and All American. He didn't cut it at all.

If you're a UT fan, YOU should. Joker Phillips was a HORRIBLE offensive Coord and it was widely known. Sanders is a very good playcaller who took the early hit for Fulmers degradation in recruiting. Flat fact.

With Sanders at the helm, UK will make use of having the FASTEST backfield in the SEC. Again, fact.

This is just what real football fans expected. UK is getting Joker out of the way, because his charisma makes him a great recruiter, but his football knowledge is not great. Sanders will have UK at or very near the top of the SEC east offense next year. Bet on it.

your facts are dead wrong. You're completely lost on the Sanders as OC while at UT front. Sanders was as bland a playcaller as possible at UT, talent or no. That's a fact.

There is no possible way your backfield is even remotely as fast as UFs and that's an absolute FACT.
