    Kenny Payne at Louisville

    Yes on the political board. How analogous to Tubby Smith is he?

    Well he did not follow a high profile national championship coach. In a way I guess he did, but not directly after said coach won a title, that he did not have to give up, and made a fool of himself on a dining table at a local restaurant. Also Tubby did not lose 8 games in a row at his new school. I think a similarity that fits is that he has coached long enough as a head coach in the state of KY, that the U6 fans hate him.

    My best friend is a UL fan and liberal. Crazy I know... lol

    I asked him why they were this bad. He said, "no guards and unmotivated players". I did not expect the later with KP.

    Kenny will load up with good transfers. I am quite certain there are other things afoot at U of L. I expect a mass exodus.

    I always thought KP was a good hire for UL, and given their roster right now it's hard to say.

    I never thought it was a good move for KP. Jury still out on that too, but not looking good so far.
    People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

    Kenny Payne at Louisville

    If he makes it through the year with his job, I’d be curious to see what he can do, with recruiting, portal, and then coaching them to pay his style of ball, and what that would look like.

    Re: Kenny Payne at Louisville

    I was never sold on him as a head coach. IMO his niche is second tier, like he was at UK as an instructor coach and recruiter. IMO too laid back for the top spot at a big school

    That team has plenty of talent to have won 4-5 games. KP is showing he has no coaching ability.
    I am so thankful for the UK fans that wanted KP coaching UK that this did not happen to UK.
