| Post Script--that being said, I would be extremely happy to see him at UK. The most likely scenario has him leading them to multiple NITs followed by a Sutton-esque period of probation. |

His dad is an ASS. And the only reason he would even be considered at UK right now is the fact that he played there. IMO FORD is not that good of a coach yet. I would rather see Pelphrey or Horn but not sure they are ready either. At least Horn has had some success at WKU.
Barnhart has to get the next hire right or he is gone.
Horn knows a shooter from LYON CO when he sees one. LOL | Ty Rodgers...he lived down the street from me. I live in Lyon Co now | |

| Didn't Travis Ford get run off from Campbellsville University (Campbellsville College at the time) for "associating" with under-age co-eds while being coach???...

| That would mean we made it to Sunday, so, yes, I'd love another shot at them, especially if we could knock them out of the NCAAs. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | I should have been more specific. I was referring to one guy in particular, also from the Western part of Kentucky. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | I knew him very well at one time. I really don't have the adjectives to correctly describe my opinion of his character, and his history at programs from highschool to NAIA to D1 only serves to validate my assessment.
It only takes one bad apple on a staff to ruin a program. He is a bad apple. | |
