Matt Jones comments on Stoops

[wmcovol]

Jones the Uk homer, said this morning on Mac & Cube that he “wouldn’t be surprised to see Stoops quit after this season”. Said Stoops appears burnt out from all he’s been doing, wanted out last year & brother Bob tells him how great “retirement” is.

Vols need to lay a big butt whoopin on him next Sat.

I like the way you think.

I hope they force him into early retirement by hanging 70 on them, while they can only muster a big greasy NOTHING BURGER

I hope the opposite.

I hope Stoops and Napier stay at their current gigs for many, many more years to come. They are two of my favorite rival coaches currently.

It's almost as good as having unlimited pre-registered artillery fire available, 24/7.

Go Vols!

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Wouldn’t surprise me.

I’d also like to add that Matt Jones can EAD.

 

[OrangeVolMan]

I don’t see him quitting. Too much money on the table. He may settle for some payout but no one is leaving a job with the guaranteed money he has coming.

I think you forget how bad Kentucky was prior to Stoops. I’d like them to return to that. Stoops is a good coach IMO

His SEC record is 39-60 (.394)

Not exactly “good”.

For Kentucky, that’s good, bruv.

 

[Voltopia]

Meh. The day I give a single solitary crap about Matt “Tennessee football will never be elite again, and is basically Nebraska” Jones will be a cold, cold one in the depths of hell.

He’s one of a precious handful of sports media personalities who can somehow make the Paul Finebaum show dumber simply by appearing.

I want Stoops to stay just to piss him off about UK football some more.

Not bad for Kentucky.. They always have a below average SEC roster. They beat a top 10 team this year and nobody was shocked. They put UGA on the ropes and nobody was shocked. I’m not saying he deserves to be in the hall of fame but I think they’re about as good as Kentucky can be without a Heisman caliber QB

I’d settle for any first half points.

Followed by a W would also be acceptable

If he was so burned out last year, why did he accept the A&M job? If he was looking to retire, taking the A&M job would be an odd choice.

Exactly...he may look dumb but it's just a disguise

“Good ”at Kentucky isn’t an issue of wins and losses. Good means they are competitive, which keeps the fans happy waiting on basketball.

I understood the “burnt out” issue is at Kentucky. Jones claimed Stoops raises the NIL $ himself for football.

He’s a mastermind in the ways of espionage

I wouldn't be surprised if he tried his hand at something else. I think he has already maxed out the best he could do when UK managed a 10 win season. During those years, he was able to take advantage of down seasons for both Tennessee and Florida in the SEC East and were generally better than Mizzou, South Carolina, and Vandy. Now that the divisions are defunct, I think the path to 10 wins for a team like Kentucky is extremely difficult.

Stoops might be better suited in the ACC where he could take similar level of talent as Kentucky and compete for conference Championships. Maybe a team like UNC or NC State or Virginia Tech.

I think thats about the only way he leaves UK.. they ain't firing him.

why do want him to retire? he's great for business.

 

[Volfan1000]

I would rather see Tennessee whip Kentucky's ass 3 times every season in men's basketball.

 

[Jackcrevol]

they just gave him an extension disnt they

Since 2016, he's almost .500 in the SEC (32-39). By their standards, that is incredible. They are barely .500 overall, all-time.

 

[VolFanatic27]

I might be one of the few here that kinda likes Stoops, and I respect what he’s managed to do at Kensucky. It’s more than they deserve.
