Hey Ky hired Mark Stoops and he may be their best HC since they Hired Bear Bryant back in the 50's.

Yes we are in awful shape with leadership, but a couple decent hires can change the culture. No doubt I have lost football interest, but I graduated in 1973 and far more things to do than fret over Msu football now days. Fact is I'm headed to deer camp Friday Morning. Happy Turkey Day and Hail State Always!!!
How is 2-10 an improved year with any staff no matter limited talent, along with poor coaching which has also played a big part in this debacle? There seems to be several coaches/ex-coaches on this board that could have taken the millions and put together a better staff and could have beaten E KY and UMASS! We have to break the cycle of bad hires and a revolving door on HC, but will Lebby/Hutz be another Croom/Woody after next year?
