Jacob Tamme Wants Your Support
The former Cat and current NFL success story has some words for anyone considering not showing up to #PackCommonwealth today:
A message to #BBN: Consider going to the game today. I know you’re not happy. No one involved with the football program is happy…cont

(5) for the program. The guys I saw in the locker room after the UGA game were devastated–they did not quit. And I hope they come out…

clap, clap, clap! we’ll said j.t, one of my fav UK fball greats
Nope, not giving UK one more red cent until they get serious about football. Not even bothering to consider one of the best coaches in the country (Petrino), like we are too good for him is beyond asinine.
I’ll keep my money in my pocket and let Mitch figure out how to pay his bills.
What number 2 said!!
#2 and #3 why don’t you all just stay away when we get better and leave the seats for real fans.
@2. you just as well get over it. Petrino got caught literally with his pants down, and using school money to pay for her position (no pun intended). Win or lose, Any school hiring him would be nuts.
Let’s go sit in the cold and watch one awful team beat another awful team (maybe) because a bunch of people we don’t know (the Seniors) worked really hard for someone we all think of as a failure (Joker). Great Idea! Does it cost money to do this? It does! EVEN BETTER!
How about if I just sit home on my couch and hit myself in the head with hammer. Sounds like roughly the same amount of fun.
Also: Let’s hire a coach that we know is a ticking time bomb of inappropriate behavior and/or leaving us in the dust while he heads to another school.
Petrino’s dad has absolutely set this coach search back weeks while simultaneously exposing the IQ of 50% of UK’s fan base.
I don’t understand why people like #6 even take the time to comment.
#8: to make sure that my fellow UK fans know that going to see a game “for the Seniors” is nothing but a sh!tty marketing ploy to drum up interest in a worthless game.
#5, You’re right, UK doesn’t need Petrino. We’ve got this whole football thing figured out just fine.
I would love Petrino for our next coach, but at this point let’s get this straight…it is not going to happen. Move on. I believe there are other candidates that could do a good job but let’s see who Barnhart picks. It will be interesting…
me thinks Mitch is waiting on joker final home game to announce the new coach, so it wont interfere with the seniors.
@10, one “billy g” type experience wasn’t enough for you, huh. If they don’t hire just who you want, then i guess-be a child, take your ball and go home. That’s ok, it’ll make room for the rest of the true fans. You have fun pouting at home.
Thats a nice written statement he tweeted out, btw Petrino or bust
#13 I’ve spent more hours inside Commonwealth than you’ve had descended testicles. If UK pisses away a chance to hire a top ten coach in the country, then yes I’m done with them and their crap.
If this was bball we’re talking about they’d hire him in a minute with no questions asked….. Oh wait, they already did.
Just don’t bring us Cutcliffe please. He’s in the ACC and has only a .500 record, I’d rather keep Joker if UK goes that way.
15. You don’t know what i do, therefore you have no idea how much time i’ve spent inside commonwealth. I’ll waste no more time debating with a moron. Have a nice day at home.
Thanks, Mr. Tamme. You’re a classy Kentuckian. I don’t think the others on the forum understand that even though college football is becoming more of a money making enterprise each year, the players still suit up and play because of pride. Pride they feel for the hard work they’ve put in, pride for their coaches, and pride for the state & the fans.
What channel is the game on insight in louisville?

I hate our fans. A bunch of spoiled, petty pussies.
