Good fits for Stoops - other than A&M how bout the Barn ?
Good point…Auburn is such a difficult place to survive.
Auburn is a bad job, but aTm is quickly becoming a bad job for the same reason
If Stoops goes to a big time program y’all think he can recruit with the big boys? He would be expected to but he strikes me as a football only type guy without much personality…but what do I know.
You don’t have Kentucky playing that well for that long without being a half decent recruiter.
He would never go to the Barn without major reassurances he’s running the show.
NIL actually benefits coaches like that way more if they have strong institutional backing and boosters with deep pockets.
This is a good call. Hadn’t thought about that but surely it does. Good for him. In that case he might just wait for Ohio State to open up.
lmao who is downvoting my posts saying Stoops is a good coach?
They got Tex, Kasey, and me. As you all know I don't care about DVs but what was so objectionable about those posts? I'm just interested in understanding why now
You cannot win without a QB. Napier does not have one.
Probably just don’t like giving credit to other SEC coaches.
I think DVs are chicken shi+. Never given one. But that’s just me.
Agree. He has a tremendous athlete under center…but tremendous athlete doesn’t always translate into good QB.
Stoops is a great example of a coach being given enough time. In another thread I talked about Stoops being a fit at Kentucky. That matters. He’s well connected in Ohio high school football. I think he would also do well at Florida State but that Nebraska job, I wouldn’t take that unless I was ready to retire and get a big check.
I don’t see Napier being given the time at Florida. Stability in leadership is important. Look UGA and Kentucky with longtime coaches. The orange clowns let the inmates run the asylum.( all 3!) That fan base will not give Napier the time unless you have a University president with the gonads to stand up to the boosters. At this point it would take a Saban like hire to fix them IMO. A coach with enough **** to do what Saban did and let them know who runs things.
I have no idea how any college football fan can look at what Stoops has done at Kentucky and not be impressed.
Same here. Don’t understand it at all. Just simply move on if I don’t like or disagree with a post.
Got better things to do!
And Stoops is a helluva Coach! Any non-delusional fan-based team would love to have him! Actually, don’t really see him ever leaving KY unless there is some inner craving he needs to itch. Don’t think money motivates him.
Agree. Why would he leave Kentucky at this juncture? I guess everyone has a price…
Maybe, but that’s kind of my point……I don’t think he does.
Sometimes satisfaction in establishing a legacy (and passing a legend) can be enough! UF, tOSU, Auburn….they all have their legacies and legends.
I’m probably too young to remember TAMU’s legend…..might be some interest there.
This leads me into… I hope Monken is comfortable being the best OC in college football! 😎
He is their all time winningest coach now. Passed Bear Bryant with the win over FU.
Great coaches are a red hot commodity. I expect teams to go after him harder in the future.
