Joker Phillips at Media Day

Shortly after the Southeastern Conference Media Days, I read that Kentucky football coach wasn’t believable. He wasn’t as knowledgeable and passionate about the Kentucky football program like his counterparts. My question, what were you watching?

Joker Phillips has settled into his position as the head football coach of the University of Kentucky. As a homegrown talent and alumni of the university, Joker has as much love for this team as anyone possibly could. For anyone to criticize his investment in this program would be absolutely ludicrous. Coach is a man preaching the Big Blue gospel and recruits are receptive to it.  We should be fortunate to have found a coach that we don’t have to worry about leaving us for a better looking girl.
