I don't want any of them.  If any of these guys really wanted to be in Lexington, they would've been here.  There was an opening about a year ago.  UK just signed a contract with Pope, honor it.

It's a hypothetical. Just pretend one of them called and said he met the woman of his dreams, who lives in Lexington and won't move from here. He wants to spend the rest of his life here and wants to coach and win championships. Hell, let's go wild with our imaginations. Let's suppose we had supernatural encounter with a mystical being that told us that one of these three men would win two Nattys in the next three years, if he came to Lexington. Would you dump the 14 loss guy for the Nattys?

Ok, I'll slide over to your dream world for just a few minutes.
Ricky, forget him, he was here once and left.  Also, that could have been my wife he had on the table.
Bruce, what has he ever won to prove he's worthy?
Brad, he did take what I'll call a mid major to the runner up spot twice.

Brad would be my pick if I were to make a change.

Now, I'm going back to the real world.

Thanks for playing. Brad would be my pick, as well. While I think Pope has done fine, I would dump the Mormon for the Methodist in a heartbeat.  Real world, though. We're stuck with the 14 loss guy who avoids alcohol and caffeine. But... we'll have fun watching his mid majors and knowing that Coach Pope loves us and understands our sensibilities and sensitivities.
