Bump this thread when you want Mitch Barnhart fired

I think Mitch is a good AD. He's done some great things and he is a university president's dream as an AD. But, he ABSOLUTEOY SUCKS at giving out contracts. This is the one that might finally bite him in the ass.
 
Yep. Fire Cal. 100% But football and VB fans feel your anger is misdirected at checkerboard uniforms and things that do not matter. I was in Orlando for the bowl game. You? You look like an idiot.
I know you think I look like an idiot, you don't have to keep telling me each post. I have no problem with the uniforms, it's a silly discussion and acknowledged what the impact he had on the other programs before my rant. However, to hold him in some regard that he should not be held accountable for some of the worst contracts to Kentucky Basketball, what our school is known for most is absurd to say the least.
 
OP and many are fools. Shut up because you look stupid.
No people like you who want to keep this clown are who look stupid. UK basketball is the heart of uk sports. That’s been a fact for decades. You can’t have a sick heart and a healthy body it doesn’t work like that. He needs to be canned immediately for putting us in this position by being played by cal to get the most ridiculous contract in college history.
 
I wanted Cal gone last year. Mitch has nothing to do with it. It is time for MB to take a very long look at his coach.
As long as Barney is running things you can count on him to really f up hiring a and contracts. He is a drunken blind man playing darts when it comes to hiring. I get it football is better than ever but it’s not an sec or playoff contender. Also if stoops bolts after a bannner season you want Barney making another joker hire? No get him out now.
 
Yes, Fire MB and JC is still going to be the most overrated coach in all of ccb. Doesn't solve a thing. Thank God for FOOTBALL.
It doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. They both should be gone. The fact of the matter it's impossible to ditch the contract he was offered and signed now. That's not on Cal, he'd been a fool to not do it.
 
No he’s right. You look retarded (no offense to retarder people). Fire the AD? Wtf. Cope better.
Notice what happens at places like USC in football when their powerhouse program hit the shitter, the AD was held accountable and let go. Why is Mitch above reproach? Funny you want to mock people with intellectual disabilities and can't even spell.

We all get it. You and other Jurich slurpers around here started buying into the Media Jurich>MB propaganda years ago and you dont kniw how or why.. You too but you should see how that ended and realize you were trolled. Oh and you hate checkerboards. All the important stuff.

Fact is, we lost last night and have no idea how this ends. You should learn to hold your tongue rather than show your ignorance.

Why can't the people that forced Barnhart to hire Calipari force him to fire him?

Excellent question. These are the same people who know for a fact Barnhart had no choice. FORCED to hire Cal. Yet he has total freedom to fire him. Idiots.
 
Um no.

UK has almost every sport in a post season on a regular basis. That's what ATHLETIC directors do.
Other athletic directors don’t sign away control over their most popular program with the craziest long-term contract ever seen in the history of the sport. The only other coach to ever get a comparable contract is Coach K …but he had five national championships and more wins than anyone in the history of the sport to justify it …Cal did not.

It’s indefensible how badly Mitch caved with that contract. He got scared shitless when Cal bluffed him with a threat to jump to UCLA and signed away everything. The man would be a terrible poker player.
 
Mitch is connected with the elite big dollars boosters - he’s not going anywhere
 
Stop there because the rest of your word salad looks ignorant.
Only if you’re a football only homer with which Barney really got lucky with. Because fb is doing better than ever is not a direct result of Barney leadership. He got lucky when stoops wanted the job and pushed his way in. You’re brainwashed buddy. Barney is probably you bff

He's made it where the boosters have less influence than they've ever had with any other administration. Craft is the only one he's afraid of alienating.

No matter what else he's done for other UK programs, he was handed the 'golden goose' with the Kentucky Basketball program and we've had all-time lows under his watch here. He cannot control the basketball coach because Cal wears the pants in the relationship. It's consecutive years of embarrassment. He was the Chairman of the Selection committee last year and yet his program, the winningest tradition in all of College Basketball wasn't even in the Tournament after the worst year in school history. We'll be lucky to hold claim to the most by the end of this year's Tournament. We don't hang banners for regular season accolades in UK history. Final 4's & National Championships. Not sure we get another with either one of these 2 clowns here.
If he’s not at least on the phone with Brad Stevens, Billy Donovan, Tommy Floyd, or Scott Drew during the off season, he takes just as much responsibility for this fiasco as Cal.

Go stay on the fb forum bc you don’t give a shat about anything else. We re in danger of becoming an ole miss or a USC with some decent fb and no banner program. Get outta here

The whole point of a contract is to prevent him from getting out of it because he wants.
Him being Calipari or him being Barnhart/UK? The whole point of the contract from Barnhart’s point of view is to protect UK not make UK a slave to the coach. The level of the buyout is ridiculous.
