GT, I would think you would pick up on the fact that most coaches don't always mean exactly what they say. Well with the whole Brian Kelly thing and all

 

BK said he was going to win championships at UC. At least he backed up his crazy talk... :lol:

^Everything people said for a page and a half you shot down, not hearing anyone's side of the story. I don't see any post where anyone claimed UK could own Cincinnati, please show them to me. One post about the difficulties UK would face in the area would have sufficed, but we had a page load of the stuff, when no one was even arguing with you.

I was simply posting my thoughts on a message board. What a crazy concept. Never got worked up once. Thanks for your obvious concern though... :thumb: :lol:

 

Trust me, I wasn't concerned for you at all, I like you was posting my thoughts, but reading through the thread, I-like many others-think you and CCC both got worked up pretty good.

I was talking about that week leading up to the Pitt game while ND was pursuing him

Oh yeah, he sure brought home the BCS Title last season. UC played a real team and got demolished last season, just like they would have if they would have lucked into the title game. But, should that stop Jones from setting a goal of winning the Big East and MNC? I would hope not, but please don't ever bring that into conversation because we will have to remind you why it could never happen on the National Title level.

Yeah, "bam" says the bammer!

 

As far as this whole thread goes. UK will never own Cincy as far as recruiting goes. However an effort nonetheless must be made and could pay off. Maybe that won't be a big payoff, but it couldn't be any worse than it was in the last 9-10 years.

I picked UF by multiple TDs even before BK left, and said all year UC had no shot at winning a national title. But whatever helps you sleep at night... :lol:

Which is what most people on here are saying, including me.

Did I say you picked UC? Don't remember saying that.

 

But, I would say that it was probably a goal for BK and the UC boys, if not last year in future years. Would that be stupid too? I know it will never happen, but coaches and players can dream can't they?

Here is UC AD Mike Thomas talking about what Butch Jones brings to UC.

 

Once I had the chance to meet Butch Jones face to face I knew we had found an individual with the right characteristics who would carry on the momentum that had been built around the UC football program.

 

Butch Jones is just that person. He innovative mind and energy makes him the knockout choice for the University and positions Cincinnati football for a future where it cannot only compete for BIG EAST championships but for national championships as well.

 

I guess that was stupid as well. The challenges UC faces to win a National Championship are numerous. First off, they can go undefeated and still not get in. Once they do, they have proven to be at a tremendous athletic disadvantage to teams from bigger conferences, with the Sugar Bowl against UF being the prime example. How dare the UC AD to dream that UC could one day hold the National Championship. They should settle for winning the Big East, and getting the opportunity to play an SEC team in a lesser BCS Bowl game.

I hope we keep most or our recruiting efforts south of the Mason Dixon lines.

He said COMPETE for a national championship, or are there words you want to add in there like you do when replying to my posts? Joker said OWN Cincinnati recruiting. Apples and anchovies. And in case you missed it UC was 1 second from COMPETING for a national championship last year. Lesson over. I'm done here...

And Joker said "We've got to own Cincinnati", which would indicate that there is still work to be done. He didn't say we own Cincinnati or will own Cincinnati did he? :sssh: Checkmate, my friend. You can't have it both ways.

 

What? Even if they had gotten into the game, wasn't the UF game enough to show you that UC would have gotten creamed? They may have been in the game, but it would not have been competitive. Maybe you have forgotten about the Sugar Bowl.

 

Now that is the biggest laugh I've had all day.:laugh:

 

 

They sure competed against UF.

All I can think about is this video after all this:

I hope we keep most or our recruiting efforts south of the Mason Dixon lines.

 

I agree and I don't even get the bickering or comment by Joker. There are probably 1-2 kids in Cincy annually who would make a splash in the SEC.
