Eric Crawford - It's 10 o'clock, and we're up and running. Your questions are welcome, all topics considered.

Although we have no idea how they feel about the possible opening at the moment, how do you feel about the prospect of Tommy Tuberville or Phillip Fullmer finishing their coaching careers at UofL? Would it be better to hire a younger, up and coming coach?

10:02

Eric Crawford - Well, I keep thinking about this. And what is so bad about having some of the best young names in coaching passing through every four or five years. The problem with getting a lifer is that -- well, you might have to have him for longer than you want. Those things almost never end well.

Hello Eric... do you think UofL can win any other Big East football games this year? Any chance against Syracuse?

10:03

Eric Crawford - I don't think it looks good. And the big reason why is the reason I worried about at the beginning of the season -- the grind. These games without a bye week are taking a toll on a team that wasn't deep in the first place.

How bad will UK beat Little Brother this year

10:04

Eric Crawford - Going to wait to see them both play a few games before I wade in on that one. I haven't seen enough of the Wildcats yet, but am looking forward to changing that.

How come Zach Stout isn't seeing any playing time? Is he on the outs with coach K?

10:06

Eric Crawford - The only word I've ever gotten on Stoudt is that he was a long way behind as far as knowing the playbook. I think people may have a far, far heightened idea of how good he is. However, given what we've seen so far this season -- I have to agree with your question. Why wouldn't you try him?

Sounds like a packed house tonight. You have been reporting for a long time during Tom Jurich's tenure as AD. Based on his previous tendencies, do you see him remaining silent until the season is complete? Could ridiculously poor performances cause an earlier decision?
