They could have done a lot worse, but he doesn't scare me.

I've also seen Mike MacIntyre to UK. We will see.

 

[Captainzach1]

Just glad he's ruled out at UT

As much as I hate Kentucky, I do wish they would make a better hire than Jones.

From what I've heard Butch Jones is holding out for our job. Mark Stoops and McIntyre are the two favorites right now. Likely to name one of the two this week.

Hopefully he can get something done at UK. I wouldn't put too much stock in someone who got a beatdown from a a Derek Dooley coached team, though.

This is what I saw on the sec forum.

He's a huge upgrade over Joker.

Got a text from a big UK fan last night who told me the same thing. He does not believe this news will go over well with the UK fans.

I think UK could do a lot worse. Mike is a winner and he will succeed where ever he goes.

If Dooley was on the sidelines I am not sure we win. It was Cheney's game.

Mike hasn't had much success at San Jose St. posting a 16-21 record as Head Coach. Better than Joker though, heh?

You are definitely not aware of what Mike MacIntyre has done are you? He took over the worst college football program in the nation and in three years has turned them into the 25th ranked team in the nation with a 10-2 record this season.

 

[Velo Vol]

Is UK really a better job than Cincinnati?

 

[rkw38]

Stepping stone job IMO. If he can have moderate success at UK in the SEC he will move up the ladder.

 

[what what]

Good hire for Kentucky... If UT hired him - I would have been pissed.

 

[Kurtastrophe]

Better them than us. I couldn't imagine the apathy here if we hired him.

 

[EaglesVols91]

So UK is a step up from Cincy? News to me

 

[buffaloblue]

McIntyre is going to be an awesome hire for someone.

I did forget to add about the success this season in my latest post and to answer your question - I am aware. Thank you for clearing that up. I'm not trying to imply that I think Mike is a bad coach at all. I'm just stating he hasn't had as much success (other than this year) whether his past teams were one of the worst in the nation. I did say "Better than Joker, heh?". I'm sure UK wants a successful coach and i'm sure they will be pleased with Mike just because of the success of this season. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[TennesseeOrange]

Is this confirmed? I doubt he would leave for UK, it's not a step up. Especially considering he's a candidate for some much better jobs.

Butch Jones just met with players @ Cincy and said he's staying per a source @ UC. #Bearcats

 

[govols120]

MacIntyre at UK would shock me a little. Mostly the part about UK making a good football hire.

 

[Brooks_Orpik]

TB says he told players he's staying at UC

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Does this mean Butch Jones turned down KY? Yikes!
