What is your biggest "What-If" in UK history? I want a bunch of you to give your what-if...and 3-4 things that would have happened if your condition was met. (Examples - Pitino doesn't leave, Meeks returns for his Senior year, Eddie does not get caught cheating, Etc.)
I'll start
What if John Calipari was hired in 2007 instead of Billy Gillespie?
-Derrick Rose signs with Kentucky
-Everyone important...including Randolph Morris...returns
-Patterson still signs
-Sandy Bell/Calipari make sure Rose's ACT is never an issue
A starting lineup of:
Morris
Patterson
Crawford
Bradley/Meeks
Rose
I think that is a dominant team that could have challenged for the national title. 3 really good seniors with an elite freshman in Rose...oh and PPat was pretty good too BTW. No NIT and No Gardner Webb. Our rise back to the top would have been immediate.
And who knows, by year 2 we could have seen a Tyreke Evans and Jodie Meeks back-court.
