[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 913585, member: 4572"] I would argue Mark Stoops is much closer to Kentucky’s version of George O’Leary or CPJ than he is to Mullen. He’s won 10 games twice in 10 seasons. Before Stoops Kentucky hadn’t won 10 games since 1977, and they only had 2 in their entire history. He’s going to take them to their 7th straight bowl game this year. Kentucky had only been to 15 bowl games total before Stoops. He’s finished ranked in the top 25 twice, the last time Kentucky finished ranked before Stoops was 1984. The only other Kentucky coaches to finish ranked more than once are Fran Curci and Bear Bryant. Since 2016 Stoops’ conference record is 28-29 (.491). After their game against UGA this week it will probably fall to 28-30 (.482), but when you compare that to their all time conference record of 199-428-20 (.168), what Stoops has done at Kentucky is miraculous. If Mark Stoops wanted to come to GT and coach, we’d be insane to tell him no. If Stoops had the resources of a place like Auburn, Tennessee, Florida State, Penn State, Nebraska etc. I bet he would be competing for conference championships and natties. Disclaimer: that doesn’t mean he would be a fit at any of those schools, just a comparison of resources. [/QUOTE]
