And so it begins...

Re: Coaching Carousel Thread 2011-2012 Edition

Thank goodness. After watching him in games this year against Oregon and OSU his "can't coach that well so I'll just yell all the time" attitude is ridiculous.

Since his name is censored,

I think it could be him.

Chris Petersen better be getting a ring first right off the bat.

The Kentucky fan base is turning the heat up on Joker Phillips, and rightfully so. I said to Joker detractors after last season's poor finish that Joker wouldn't be on the hot seat unless he had a disaster of a season.

That disaster of a season may very well be this year.

Kentucky is sitting at 2-4 this season and could easily be 0-6 at this point if it wasn't for powerhouse programs such as Western Kentucky and Central Michigan shooting themselves in the foot with turnovers. Morgan Newton looks worse now than he did as a freshman. Kentucky has a good defense under new coordinator Rick Minter, but it doesn't help when the defense is out on the field for 3/4 of the game because the offensive offense goes 3 and out over and over and over again with their vanilla has hell offense.

And with each passing game, it looks more and more like Joker has lost this team. Even the game against Jacksonville State is starting to look more and more like one for the loss column.

It's time to fire Joker Phillips. Some people feel he should be given more time. Joker may only be in his second year as head coach, but he was the coach in waiting for years. Joker isn't trying to get his recruits in here. All the players on this team are his players that he recruited. It would be different if UK just hired him from somewhere else. These players aren't trying to learn a new offense. It's all the same...same coaches, same players, same offense. The only thing different is they're not winning now. Rich Brooks got time because he took over a team that was terrible after the probation years. Joker took over a team that went to 4 straight bowl games and won two of them.

There is one name that Kentucky fans are rallying around.



Hire the Pirate!

Leach should never have lost his job because of Craig "the hooker killer" James anyway...

I say to UK, "You have no stones or sense if you don't hire Leach."

I may end up being completely wrong about this but I think unless a absolute can't pass up job comes his way that Venables is happy as OU's DC and will be here until Stoops retires and then take over as HC

If I had to guess, Stoops has about 10-15 years of coaching left - he's only 51. Don't think anybody would wait that long.

And I'll be rooting for whichever team picks up the pirate, Mike Leach.

Leach would do good at Arizona in the Pac12.

I have a feeling that Rich Rodriguez will find a new head coaching home this offseason, maybe out west.

Would all his guys leave Pitt to join him?
