Wouldn’t it be something if Kentucky won the East?!?!?

Unfortunately the money guys in Vegas say Georgia is a 22 1/2 point favorite and they will probably cover.

The scary thing is Florida -10 AT L.S.U.! Tell me the last time that happened? Meyer’s time? Spurrier’s?

2009 was right at about 10 points
 
Ole Miss already lost to Bama. Ole Miss needs to run the table and hope Bama drops another one.
 
I can not see him leaving Lexington. He built this from the ground up after the Joker fail. He may use leverage to get a raise, but I dont see that happening. I know he has one gripe but I think that will be taken care of.
 
Mark Stoops wouldn’t turn down LSU to stay at UK if he ever got that offer. He’s not going to turn down an opportunity to coach at a national championship type program. I don’t see LSU going after him anyways.

I dont see LSU going after him either. I have heard scuttlebutt about FSU, but how many coaches can they afford to have on their payroll? Nebraska was another one. But who in the hell wants to live in Nebraska? Have you ever been there? Its nothing.

No offense but Ky isn't exactly the garden spot of the US. It's one of the 10 poorest states in the country. Now I agree no reason to go to Nebraska over Ky. But if LSU comes calling he will definitely listen. He can win natty's there.

Man I would love college football if this happened
What would that do to the 5 star dominance theory by Sikes and Swamp-thing?
 
Your coach is now the Pretty Girl at the Dance and the other boys are noticing.
Stoops…

I think it would take a top level SEC team like LSU to get him out of there now. Any other jobs he would consider probably aren't coming open after this season.
 
There have been a few recent threads on the UK board about what Stoops may or may not do after this season regarding coaching vacancies. My personal opinion - the only schools I worry about would be Ohio State and Notre Dame. He has a pretty cushy contract at UK that is essentially an evergreen that rolls out 4 or 5 year at $5M/yr. Expectations at UK are still relatively low compared to places like LSU, where Coach O is probably done if he doesn't win out. The one downside from UK's perspective is that his buyout is really low....I forget the details but it makes it relatively easy for him to be hired away from a dollars standpoint.

On a personal note for Stoops, he and his (now ex) wife divorced within the past year, and she and their two sons have relocated to Colorado. That may or may not play in him leaving and/or where he would go if he does.
As I see who is coaching at CU, and if he's willing to relocate to be closer to his kids, this could be the year Colorado looks for a new coach. I'm surprised they Karl Dorrell after his failed stint at UCLA, and his offense stunk against Texas A&M. The only reason why I'd see Stoops leave KY.

Interesting about the Colorado piece. OSU and ND I don't believe will be looking for coaches anytime soon. I agree about the expectations piece at UK. At the end of the day it's still a hoops first school. So in my mind the only potential opening would be LSU.

I hope he goes to LSU so he can have sustained success. I loved him at FSU. Always wanted him back at FSU

OSU and ND coaches aren't going anywhere. No way is USC and him a fit either. I think if he was to leave everything points to LSU. Not sure if he would consider a place like Penn State if Franklin went to USC. Penn State is in a better position to compete for the conference/playoffs than Kentucky would be however.

I would have to say Dan Mullen can/will be a perfect fit at USCw.
 
The weather and golf courses in Lexington are a lot nicer and more relaxing to play on in the summer than in the Deep South, where it is 98 everyday and golf sucks. Stoops loves golfing with buddies and restauranting at night. Lexington’s milder weather is probably a lot more appealing to the ginger from youngstown
