August 5, 200818 yr It's Brooks, walking over to the practice field. :lol: I questioned early on, if he was the right guy for the job and he's proven me wrong, both on and off the field. :lol: I saw that floppy hair and thought it was Pete.
August 5, 200818 yr So it takes Brooks months to find out one of his star players was arrested (only after a second arrest does he get wind that there might be a problem) and then some more time on top of that to get the details (but not before public statements that Pulley might still start?) Doesn't sound like Brooks has a very firm grasp on the reins, there. Now that's funny! Edited August 5, 200818 yr by spindoc
August 5, 200818 yr Something else has had to transpire. Brooks never mentioned dismissing last week. He sure changed his tune a lot over the past few days. It went from "in house" discipline to off the team discipline. I think he just wanted to avoid the knee jerk reaction. For all that criticize for collecting as much info as possible before dropping the hammer, he would have looked 10x as silly if for some reason further evidence showed his innocence.

August 5, 200818 yr Wow, all those people judging the situation before it played out ... All the UK people said they would let it play out and what should of happened happened. Well on to Hartline.

Doesn't sound like Brooks has a very firm grasp on the reins, there. :confused: I'd say dismissing him is a pretty firm grasp.

August 5, 200818 yr I'll bet you coach Brooks listened to his story, made him take a drug test and when he got the results the story did not match up and he was dismissed.
August 5, 200818 yr Once Brooks had all the information (which none of us probably have), he made the decision he felt was in the best interest of the program. Noone can say he did not give Pulley his chances, but I hope that Curtis takes this as a sign that changes need to be made. He has too much potential to not do something positive somewhere. I wish him the best, but I do support Brooks in his decision.
August 5, 200818 yr I think Kentucky was going to go with Hartline at QB anyway, but they lose an option they needed and someone they were going to get out on the field somewhere else almost certainly. It's a shame this kid couldn't have pulled it together. A story we see all too often.

August 5, 200818 yr "I'm sure he will transfer. ...," Brooks said. "His best option at this point is a I-AA school." Let's go Racers (CLAP,CLAP, clap-clap-clap)! That was my thought, as well. He might be better off going further from Hoptown, though.
