Stats can sometimes be misleading. The guy is built like Cutter Boley trying to play MLB in the SEC. It's no wonder why our run defense has gone to s*** the past couple of seasons.
Stoops won’t be fired tonight. But what about Hamdan?
- Thread starter phunterd
- Start date
Look at the competition during those years. We were playing a down Tennessee, S Carolina, Vanderbilt, Missouri, Florida, Miss State for half of Stoops' tenure and Louisville. All those programs have stepped their games up while Stoops quit trying about four years ago.
I just listened to the KSR podcast where Van Hiles called out Rayner saying he was responsible for three or four of those third down conversions that USCe got in the 1st quarter. I knew Rayner didn't pass the eye test but Hiles was actually laughing because Rayner was so bad. I kept wondering who Watson was on defense and it finally registered with me that he was playing for Rayner. I think we need Watson's size in there because Rayner looks like a free safety out there.
But But But, Coen double secret pinky promised him he was going to stay.
Anyone who believed that the second time was a fool. Honestly i think stoops didn't care. You literally get the hottest name in all of football for another year, i understand taking that because its so rare. However i do think keeping scang was the better long term move.
All that said, if he hires someone competent after coen ditches us the second time, its a non issue. Like i posted way back then, uk should've been actively pursuing ocs that entire season since there was zero chance he would stay.
Just to clarify BBI…Scang had Levis in 2022, are you saying Levis was head case?
Who would call plays, Stoops? Been told by a donor that has been around UK football for years and goes to practices that Stoops OC’s call their plays. I just think Hamdan is a bad OC and a bad hire. Also having RS freshman lead the team is another problem with Hamdan’s offense. I love Cutter but he is not going to excel in this offense.

Should have never removed Eddie Gran imo. The revolving door could have been avoided completely. I feel pretty confident we would be better off on the whole if Gran were still running the offense.
