The entire Big Blue Nation has been wanting Joker Phillips fired for some time, and yesterday’s embarrassing 40-0 loss to Vanderbilt finally pushed Mitch Barnhart to give his final answer.
It wasn’t cheap though.
Kentucky’s buyout of Joker Phillips will cost the school $2.55 million over two years. That’s $3,493 a day NOT to coach.

Do you think it was worth the money to fire Joker?
Don’t forget that 9 assistant coaches were under contract until 2014 as well.
