Team Speed Kills takes a look at three things we know and three things we do not know about Kentucky football this coming season.
I think these are valid points and worthy of discussion as we inch closer and closer to Joker Phillips’ first season at the helm.
[B]Three things we know:[/B]
1. Joker Phillips will be a great leader of the Kentucky program
2. The running game should be pretty good
3. The Wildcats should be able to get pressure on opposing quarterbacks
[B]Three things we don’t know:[/B]
1. If Joker Phillips will be a great coach for the Kentucky program
2. Who the quarterback will be all season
3. Where the defensive leadership will come from
Excerpt of the article that addresses a legitimate concern that UK fans seem to have:
Phillips has all the intangibles and off-the-field qualities you want in a head coach. The question still remains of how many games he’ll win in Lexington. It’s impossible to know how good a head coach will be until he works in the job, so there is some uncertainty there despite his resume as an assistant coach. [B]The [COLOR=black]dramatic decline in offense[/COLOR] from 2006-07 to 2008-09 came under Phillips’ watch as well,[/B] and only time will tell which set of years was the uncharacteristic one. Phillips is a good guy, but good guys don’t always win.
