Well, there are many reasons. Some/Most will probably say something about Brooks and how he is a poor coach.
But then you have to factor in that he came in when UK was just ending probation leaving him with fewer scholarships and talented upper-classmen. And to go on top of this, there mave been MAJOR injuries (mostly to these upper-class players). I believe the report at one point was 15 players had gone under the knife since fall practice started not to mention all the players that just have injuries that keep them out.
With all these injuries, it has forced the Cats to play many young players, including A LOT of true freshman. At one time, they had 7 freshmen on the field. It is hard to win with a lineup like that when you are going against many 3-4-5 year players with more experience. With the Cats being this young, I can only see the next couple of years get better as they get more ecperience. :thumb:
