Tennessee 17 Kentucky 13

Fire Stoops before the end of the season!

No way a QB change shouldnât have taken place. You start out hot the first quarter and then other coaches make adjustments and we stay the same and donât do anything. There has not been one time Stoops has made it look like he knows what heâs doing in his career. He rode the coat tails of Snell and Allen and now heâs lost

With everyone UK has coming back next season, if Stoops doesn't show any improvements then his seat needs to be very hot.

I think he needs to be forced into getting rid of Gran though.

Mark STOOPS is a dam disgrace to the Commonwealth of Kentucky. He blew the game against Tennessee tonite, the Florida game. Why not put a throwing threat (Sawyer Smith) in the dam game
Never know it was 0-0 at the half at Georgia. Florida State please please hire mark STOOPS and take Eddie gran too. After blowing Thu game against Tennessee UK fans with any sense will call for his job. He is a disgrace.

***Spud6*** · 11-10-2019, 06:41 AM

I think Stoops has a lot of say so over Gran. We also will have a hot stretch and get up and then we start playing not to lose. I think that’s Stoops. But Gran definitely sucks at playcallimg. Who runs a option on four yard line

After everything went right last year everything has went wrong this year. Terry gets hurt, Sawyer gets hurt, kicker forgets how to kick, and coaching staff canât make any adjustments. Rough season which could have been an 8+ win year. Bitter pill to swallow.

pirateforlife · 11-10-2019, 07:08 AM

Maybe next year boys lol how many games is Stoops going to have to lose until he plays NOT to lose and play to WIN the game??? He just isn't a very good football coach!

***Spud6*** · 11-10-2019, 07:09 AM

I pray Florida State hires him. Please

pirateforlife · 11-10-2019, 07:16 AM

Why would any offense recruit in the nation want to play in an offense ran by Eddie Gran? He's terrible! I'd like to see a formation with Smith and Bowden both on the field at the same time. Have to have some trick plays or something with a one dimensional QB.

pirateforlife · 11-10-2019, 07:18 AM

Gran had 2 weeks to come up with some creativeness on offense and didn't. I've watched my last UK game this season.

Thatâs the biggest part! We had a bye week before this to prepare and this is what we get. Lynn Bowden will be the last great athlete to ever come to Kentucky. Imagine going into a recruits home and trying to convince them to come play offense for us?

Pretty upset that they refuse too try anything different. First half we dominated Tenn. They made adjustments and Stoops and company never adjust when it's obvious out offensive plays aren't working the 2nd half. Just can't believe Smith didn't play.

That last part is biggest head scratcher to me. Is Smith hurt to the point where all he can do is come in and hand off when Bowden is injured? Or are we just afraid to mix things up?
Anyway, the problem for next year is the schedule. At Florida, at Tennessee, at Auburn, at Missouri, at Louisville. Plus Georgia, Miss. St. and South Carolina at home. Six wins will be a tough get next year.

***Spud6*** · 11-10-2019, 04:11 PM

Smith has to still be injured. There’s no way Stoops is that clueless that he’d not try something to get momentum from somewhere. But knowing Stoops and Gran, I guess it wouldn’t be too surprised.

Craze JACKET man · 11-10-2019, 04:40 PM

Last year the word was Georgia was taking to Gran. I believe there is No truth to that.. Kentucky runs a high school offense! We can’t win another game passing for 29 yards.
What the hell is FSU thinking!��

**Spirit100** · 11-10-2019, 05:35 PM

Get rid of Gran and be sure to pressure Stoops on the importance of a very good replacement. Gran has been giving way too much leash.

The fire Stoops talk is ridiculous at this point.

You think this has nothing to with Stoops coaching ability? Heâs the one who has to pull the trigger for Smith to come back in the game. And how many times has he lost to a backup QB in his time here? The amount of times opposing coaches have put in a backup QB during the game to get a spark and beat us with him in the second half is ridiculous. You think Stoops would see that and maybe try something different

Why do they not have a better goal line package for situations they had at the end of the game last night. Bring 1 or 2 of those big 350lb defensive tackles to lead block or run that inverted wishbone to have some lead blockers on that play. A creative trick play would have been nice also.

***Granny Bear*** · 11-10-2019, 07:32 PM

I fell asleep at halftime. I'm getting too old to hang!

From what I've heard, I was better off.

On that goal line play if they would have had a reverse on that play it was wide open back side.

Just wanted to bring this up lol

AnswertheBell · 01-03-2020, 04:08 AM

Kentucky fans , Fire him....he is the greatest......no wait fire him now......Coach of the year, we are going to be great next year.

I have become a Ky fan with this QB. He was fun to watch. Stoops has done a good job , the question is can he take them over the top and win a SEC East ?

***Westside*** · 01-03-2020, 07:53 AM

I say fire him now!!!!

NO....Emphatically NO. Stoops has reached his pinnacle. Improvement yes but if you want more needs to be someone else.

Needs to be who ? If he can win 8-10 games at UK regularly he can stay for 20 years . Youâll get a 12 win season in there somewhere . Itâs not like there is Sabans and Sweeneyâs walking around . Itâs still UK football at the end of the day. We arenât a powerhouse recruiting spot .

OK you have answered my question from the other thread. I agree with you. That is why Kentucky will not ever win the SEC East. At the end of the day it is still Kentucky Football. Could not have said that better.
