I thought that same thing. Where is all that money coming from..

I figured this thread would blow up with responses. Been pretty quiet...IMO mercer is a better job than both Garrard and Lincoln...

Who is the name from your source?

This sounds like the epic ending of an old batman episode LOL!

Do the football players playing baseball and basketball not lift or do anything during the football off-season?

Shutting down the weight room is unfortunate. I made a post earlier in this forum talking about how getting behind in the off-season will cost you in the regular season..looks like the ball has been dropped in that aspect especially if the weight room will remain closed until the hire is made. If Rogers didn't get an interview that is very sad news.

Any chance the reason they haven't announced yet is because they have been turned down by their top picks?

Are these two kids big pieces of the team? I hate seeing a coach come in, the community place unrealistic expectations on the season, and the coach being ran off due to those expectations.

What are the expectations from the community for the up-coming seasons? Between these 4 listed, what would be considered a "good first year?"

I think he was very underutilized at Corbin after his sophomore year. I do think though that EKU is a much better fit than UK.

How long should they wait for an answer from him before they offer someone else if he is the top choice?

Will the administration allow someone to stay that long? Coaching is a production based world..

Well, you do have to pay a price to win a championship...the price is called hard work.

Might just have to change it.

Can they not get some of that Buffalo Trace money?! LOL. If they were willing to donate and revamp I'd name the field after them!

I would be curious if that is a money issue or a lack of attention to detail by those making the decisions.

I assume they will be talented. I meant more along the lines of the OL. Ledford is back as well correct?

Sounds like a tough get other than the schedule. I haven't seen them play in a very long time, the last time I did they had some good athletes.

What does it look like for the new coach coming in? Roster, facilities, schedule, etc.?

What do you mean by "buy a championship?"

How long was Rogers the DC at Lincoln?

They say winning cures all. Whoever they bring in, if they are successful, will have community support.

Curious to know what all Franklin is losing and has coming back next season. I know Moorman will be back, what pieces do they have around him?

Bellevue has won 3 games in the past 3 seasons. 2 of those 3 wins being against the same school. What is the reason for such a decline?

The problem with taking your time now is that the off-season has already started and isn't going to wait around. I understand the kids are in the weight room with Coach Rogers now, but if he isn't the guy and doesn't stay that's time you lose in the transition.
