Mark Stoops

[natemantooth]

10-win season at Kentucky with recruiting classes ranked far below Tennessee's. Pay the man 5.5 million.

 

[Boston Vol]

He’d say no

 

[TAF]

Why would he come to this dumpster fire? He’s made a perineal “basketball school” into a Basketball AND Football School”

 

[VolsSportsFan]

No thanks.

He's happy at UK and has a great situation there. All he has to do is have winning seasons because they care a lot more about Basketball at Kentucky.

Why did Chaney come to this dumpster fire? Cash money.

 

[natemantooth]

No thanks.

Why?

Actually no...you spend much time in Athens? You ever have a wife who wants to live somewhere else?

Better buffets in Knoxville.

 

[Shaun1985]

I'd aim higher, but he's better then Pruitt

Give Pruitt the same amount of time that Kentucky has given Stoops.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Why?

Because he's good for where he is. He'd last 2 seasons here.

Knoxville has the best Tard cut barbers in the city that’s why..

 

[jaydhugs]

How would we have reacted if Mark Stoops had those seasons here?

 

[Stoked]

Are we talking about the same Mark Stoops with a 38-39 record?

 

[natemantooth]

Give Pruitt the same amount of time that Kentucky has given Stoops.

At least we'd know that Stoops is capable of a turnaround.

Give him time. At least we know he is capable of it.

 

[Stoked]

I live here in KY and they were ready to throw in the towel with him after year 3. They actually gave him time to bring in his guys and then boom a 10 win season...at UK.

 

[SportsFreak]

You can’t deny he is turning a program around.

Season 1: 2-10
Season 2: 5-7
Season 3: 5-7
Season 4: 7-6
Season 5: 7-6
Season 6: 10-3
Season 7: 2-0

He does a wonderful with developing talent and recruiting is continuing to improve. Just as important, he has a good head on his shoulders and he represents a program well. Somebody would be crazy to not want him.

Chaney actually like Knoxville. Wants to retire here.

 

[Stoked]

You willing to wait at least 6 years to have better than a 7 win season? Cause that’s how long it took him.

 

[jaydhugs]

Give him time. At least we know he is capable of it.

But you are CERTAIN Pruitt isn’t capable? I understand it sucks not being a good team right now, but like it or not Pruitt has the pedigree and the staff to bring success. He BEAT Kentucky at their BEST.

I don't think it would take that long given our advantages.

I'm not certain, but it looks unlikely at this point.
