Here goes nothing, this is of course based on my memory and my opinion and in no particular order.
Football-Ray Goff- Georgia- Followed a legend in Vince Dooley and sent Georgia into the also rans of the SEC! He basically was a former player who they had to run out of town. If my memory serves me correctly he never won more then 6 games in 5 years and that doesnt cut it at Georgia! Steve Spurrier beat him like a red headed step child!
Football- Mike Dubose- Alabama- Followed Gene Stallings who won a national title! He never was liked by the Alabama people and has the distinction of being the only Alabama coach to lose to Kentucky in the last 85 years!! They ran him off after 2 losing years and recruiting violations!!
Basketball-Wade Houston- Tennessee- I know, I know he got lucky once and beat Rick Pitino on a lucky bounce. But he was brought in to get his son and recruit players to Tennessee like he got at UofL! He quickly found out that Tennessee wasnt U0fL! His teams didnt play hard, they didnt play defense and Wade looked lost most of the time!
Football- Bill Curry- Kentucky- A very nice guy but a horrible football coach. Need I say more then he tried to run the option with Tim Couch instead of putting in a drop back passing game! He almost could have made this list twice with his performance at Alabama, except he did go to bowl games every year there including an SEC title and a Sugar Bowl bid! However he never was aceepted at Alabama because he simply couldnt beat Auburn and he wasnt one of Bear Bryants boys! Let us not forget there is a reason that we took Alabama's football coach and we saw the results on the field for about 4 years too long!
Football- Rich Brooks- Kentucky- In 30 plus years of following this program i have never seen such a MESS as there is over there right now! No, not Jerry Claibornes first year when they went 0-10-1, they ALWAYS played hard!! Nope not any of the Bill Curry years because say what you want to about Curry he could recruit some!! We had players, just werent utilized! King Richard appears to believe in what he does, just doesnt seem to be able to get his team to or to play hard consistantly. Strap in for this season, it is going to be LONG!!!!!
