Looking forward to see how this progresses over the next couple of months with the recruits and everything. Either way, it's great news for the University and M.B. deserves some credit.

Colonel Kill · 03-31-2009, 09:35 PM

Great job UK!!!! This is the coach I was hoping for. I said in another post to the people who said he would not leave that he would not pass up the opportunity or the money.
