Kragthorpe #3 on the "Coacheshotseat"
U of L coach Steve Kragthorpe has shot up to #3 at Coacheshotseat.com behind Notre Dame's Charlie Weis and Auburn's Tommy Tuberville. The list includes other notables such as Texas A & M's Mike Sherman and old friend Hal Mumme now at New Mexico State.
But what makes me question the validity of those who assembled this list is that it also includes Michigan's Rich Rodriguez. Does anyone really think Rich is gone after a single season where he essentially tried to run his spread offense with a bunch of hippos and elephants?
As for Kragthorpe...I still don't see him leaving after this season. It takes more than two years to turn around a program and we know now that Bobby P. left it in a mess.

Unfortunately I'm not surprised to see this... I think its ridiculous! I would also question the validity of this poll also...
I also agree its obvious Petrino left a mess for Kragthorpe or any coach who does his job with any set of good morals... Yes Petrino won and won a lot while he was here but clearly he was doing it with a big rug and a big broom continually sweeping issues under the rug.
Funny how his "system" with more talented players in the pro's didn't work or maybe he wasn't able to "control" everyone like he did while at UL... With in players in Atlanta like DeAngelo Hall not allowing him to sweep issues under the rug and speaking out against him it was never going to work. I guess that's what happens when the players you're coaching make more money than you do...
Great first season for him at Arkansas too huh? WOW a losing record and being beaten by the guy who previously held his job Houston Nutt...
If UK isn't careful they could be facing the same problem with Billy G... Take the Liggins issue for example the day after he "refused" to enter the K-State game he was playing against WVU as if nothing happened... Why? In my opinion b/c Liggins is more than likely a better athlete or more talented than any backup they've got at that position and Billy G can't afford to lose again anytime soon...
That to me is kind of sad, with an attitude of win at any cost... Look at where it got UL football. UL Football was riding high with an Orange Bowl win and 2 seasons in a row of being in the discussion for a slim but potential shot at a National Championship... Next thing you know that coach leaves and we bring in a man who does things the right way and the mess he's having to clean up may be too big for any one man...

Wildcat why do you call Kragthorpe names? you're not even a Louisville fan... If anything I'd think you'd like what has happened with him as coach...
I guess I'm confused why you'd call him "Kragglywhore" ? It really makes no sense...

I mean you can do what you want to do I'm just saying for someone like yourself based on how things have gone since he got here I'd think you would be one of his biggest fans...
To me it doesn't make a lot of sense for you to make fun of him... But hey do your thing, what ever floats your boat...

ul has Randy and Chrissy with their constant "corn liquor" and "racist" stupid comments. Now we have to endure HINK with his constant "ul sucks" stupid comment. To ALL of you... please deal with some FACTS, NOT opinions. Opinions are FINE IF they deal with at least some facts. Stupid statements without ANY facts get old in a hurry. Good luck cards. (Does that make me a "racist", Chrissy??? After all, ul has mostly black basketball players, so the lack of white players could mean I'm a racist.) GO CATS!!! (Does that make me a "corn liquor" drunk, Randy? After all, ul fans don't drink anything but beer, do they?) May GOD bless us all. OOOPS!!! That makes me a right-wing religious zealot!!! See ya!!!
