November 23, 201213 yr I read somewhere, can't exactly remember where I seen it at, might have been on KSR or Twitter but that Jones hasn't accepted nor turned down the UK job. Don't know if true or not just seen it It was on Twitter plus I posted it on here.
November 23, 201213 yr Matt Jones still seems to think that Butch Jones is the leader/favorite to get the UK job. GT have you heard anything else? Have heard UK is making it very hard to turn down the job...
November 23, 201213 yr Have heard UK is making it very hard to turn down the job... Has your gut feeling changed any? These conference changes playing a big part in it. IF he did accept would he bring coaches along you think?
November 23, 201213 yr Has your gut feeling changed any? These conference changes playing a big part in it. IF he did accept would he bring coaches along you think? Not really, but UK is offering a substantial raise so you never know. Yes I think the instability is a big part of it. No one wants to be left without a seat at the table when this all plays out. I'm sure he would. No way he takes the job without being able to pick his staff...
November 23, 201213 yr I can't read anything on Catspause because I'm not a stinkin member. The place is a joke anyway.

Wonder if UK is promising to upgrade facilities in any offer?
November 23, 201213 yr Ron Caragher spent four seasons at Kentucky as running backs coach under Rich Brooks from 2003-2006 before becoming the University of San Diego head where he has a 43-22 mark in almost six seasons. He was at UK in 2006 when the Cats finished 8-5 and were 4-4 in Southeastern Conference play. He spent nine seasons (1994-2002) on UCLA’s staff under Terry Donahue and then Bob Toledo — he played there from 1986-89. He coached receivers, punters and kickers during his time there. During the 1997-98 seasons, UCLA won a school-record 20 straight games and averaged over 40 points per game. Former UK assistant Ron Caragher has interesting perspective on what it will take for next coach to win at UK | vaughtsviews

November 23, 201213 yr I think Jones is still the target. The turning down of the deal a second time, in my opinion, is to try and throw people off the trail so to speak. Both sides were not happy when the info made its way onto the UC message boards last week.
November 23, 201213 yr I saw this post on Cats Illustrated and must say... It is impressive the lengths people will go to troll some people. :lol: Enjoy So I am sitting at the main table eating Thanksgivng dinner, theres about 54 people in my extended family all inclusive. On my mothers side are 2 fanatical UK BOOSTERS. If youve seen a few of my posts you know that have a long love affair with the University of Kentucky, having the honor of 'trying' to play football for Fran Curci and loving every painful moment. Now my family members really dont know anything about this kind of forum to discuss coaching topics and the conversation came up about UK football. Now keep in mind that 2 extended family members are large money donators, one has his name on a building and the other has an entire division of the University named after him, and they have been for a very long time. They asked me If I was still keeping up with things and did I continue to give to the athletic department yearly. I said yes, up until next year, Im fed up with the step child treatment the football program gets. We had a 30 minute conversation about who I thought should be coach and why. Most on here know I support the hiring of Bobby Petrino, except they dont know that I've been on here publicly extolling my choice with vim and vigor. My 'relative', then pulls out his cell phone and makes a call. Says to the other party on the line, "you have a big fan sitting here at my thanksgiving table, he played at UK back in the 70's and then he hands me the phone. I say hello, and he says Hi this is Bob, I'd like to invite you to my first practice, will you come? I said without a doubt. I asked him if he remembered me from having a beer at Cheddars about 6 weeks ago? He said, yep. I said, When will we all know? He said, "thats not up to me so I cant say but I'm ready to go to work. Then he said Happy Thanksgiving and hung up. Apparantly the look on my face was priceless, the whole family busted out laughing and clapping. Edited November 24, 201213 yr by PurplePride92
