Alright. I thought a non bowl appearance season was embarrassing but maybe that's just me.

I don't know of many if any problems with Rich Brooks' issues. I do know these however.

1989

Nice info. Rich Brooks has done miracles with this program, considering what he had when he first came to Lexington. A Music City Bowl appearance is not bad at all, but I think with the talent this team has and the potential, they can do better. An Outback, Cotton, or Chik-fil-A Bowl are out of the question. A bowl is a bowl, IMO, and to have back-to-back bowl seasons for UK is a GREAT job in my book!
