Smith or Whitlow will never see another down at QB while in a UK uniform. Whitlow is being switched to WR. Barker will be the starter next fall with Reese being his backup. The reason Neil couldn't run the airraid was because he didn't have any players to run it. You can't expect 2 QBs that had zero D1 offers to spread the field to open up for the air raid. Look for 4-5 wins next year and year 3 will see a 7 win team. If Stoops is the man that is. Yall have no idea how bad Jokers recruiting was the last 2-3 years. His players averaged under a 3* rating. Stoops has a top 15 class,, still only good enough for 8th best in the SEC. He has the players now,, let's see if he can coach like his brothers.

Max Smith had a lot of talent when he arrived at UK but he was threw into the fire as a true Freshmen and Smith was hurt both seasons that he played for Joker. Joker screwed up Morgan Newton and had ran the kid from Texas off (Moss)so instead of developing Smith the right way, Joker threw him too the SEC wolves. Joker had to worry about saving his job! I think Stoops and his staff handled the QB position well this past season. They redshirted the OB's that needed redshirted and played the guys that had played a lot in the past. They found out that Smith can no longer make all the throws that is needed for Neal Browns system and that Whitlow is not a very accurate passer also. I think next season that the QB job at UK will be won by either Towles or Phillips and Barker will be redshirted. I think Phillips is the favorite. I look for them to name there starter after Spring ball and stick with him.
