If you were Joker for a day....

Let's pretend for a moment that you are Joker Phillips the day after being announced as the new head coach at Kentucky. Of course, that's assuming Rich Brooks retires. What would you do as the new head coach? Please leave your comments as this could be a lot of fun.
  • Make coaching changes? Who would you let go? Who would you keep? Who would you promote? Why?
  • Name a starting quarterback heading into spring? Would you name Newton hoping to push Mossakowski and Hartline?
  • Would you name Randall Cobb the starting quarterback?
  • Throw the ball more out of the WildCobb?
  • Allow the team to wear all black for the Louisville game, heck move the Louisville game to the last game of the season or drop if from the schedule?
  • Rename the Nutter after Rich Brooks?
  • Lean on the administration to upgrade the facilities at Commonwealth?
  • Visit a few key recruits?
  • Show up a Rupp Arena during a basketball game to get more exposure?

  1. 1. I would spray paint over the C M Newton at Commonwealth

    2. I would send the team over to "beat up" the BBall team then spin it as the UK Med Center has been working on a covert cloning project--ok I'm really NOT kidding on this one : )

    3. Have a newsconference declaring a new day for UK FBall

    4. Get rid of Ortmayer (this probably should be #1)

    5. Hire at leasst 2 Recruiting gurus (1 for Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Oklahoma) (1 for Florida California, and the Carolinas) I can still handle Georgia, Bama, TN, and KY.

    6. Go out and sign 25 5 * players (isn't that the answer of all of the naysayers?)

    7. Enjoy the day!!

  2. 1. Make sure Brooks has something to do with this team in the future. (Not ready to beleive Joker can handle it)

    2. Get rid of Ortmayer. (Tired of getting gashed in the running game)

    3. Name Newton as the starter and make Cobb a full time receiver/occasional wildcat (Biggest need)

    4. Get Sanders a pay raise

    5. Beat SC to a pulp so the Chickens will finally shut up.

    5. Spend a lot of time in FL recruiting, taking advantage of the circus that is the UF coaching situation.

    Finally, I would show up at the Louisville game today dressed as Karen Sipher holding a sign that said "Here's what Charlie Strong has to look forward to".

  3. 1) Hire Mike Leach in some capacity. Whether it be as an OC or offensive consultant, they need to at least implement his passing game. He would also bring in recruiting ties to the fruitful state of Texas.

    2) Make the QB siutation a two horse race with Newton and Moss.

    3) Get rid of Coach Ort.

    4) Get an ace recuiter that has ties to Florida recruiting.

    5) Replace Steve Brown with someone like John Tunuta or Tommy West.
