Title: Looks like it's official that UK will get Mark Stoops
Post by: Creek Walker on November 27, 2012, 07:43:15 EST
What does this mean for the remote possibility that UT might land Bob Stoops? Would he come to the SEC to coach directly against his little brother?

I think the possibility of Bob Stoops coming here was always very remote (far less likely than Gruden, IMO), but coaching against Mark probably does nothing to make him more interested.

FWIW I don't think this is a good hire for UK.

UK is Basketball first and is not willing to shell out big money for a top notch Head Football Coach(examples Rich Brooks and Joker Phillips)

I'm well aware of that, but statements like that are worth just about as much as this entire thread. Which is to say, nothing.

Really?  I was impressed they got a  name that big.  But if I am not mistaken, Stoops has failed as an HC before, if that's where you are coming from.

He did a poor job at Arizona and will do much worse with a lot less talent at UK

Mike was the head coach at Arizona, not Mark.

However, I do think Mark can do as good a job at UK as Nelson Briles has done at Baylor.
