Buyout is imminent

[Fox2monk]

Coach Cal and the University in talks currently on a buyout agreement. I believe Cal will still be involved in the program at a lessor role, not sure on a time-frame to finalize the deal but 90% sure it is happening and happening in the very near future.

We shall see, who told you this or do you have a link?

Yes sir. I paid 9 bucks to Paramount to watch an NFL playoff game and went through Yellowstone and all the spinoff and then dumped it. Best 9 bucks I've ever spent. Probably do it again this winter to finish off Yellowstone.

He's a great actor.

Yeah he is man I thought they did a hell of a job with that show.

 

[Fox2monk]

lesser role? janitor hopefully

He could oversee the program from his office, he’s fantastic at recruiting and stuff. Keep doing that and let another person actually coach.

You seen the show 1883 with Sam Elliot in it?

Sam Elliot is awesome.

The poster is a troll.

Definitely not a troll. Just posting what I know to be going on first hand. Details aren't available yet. We will know more before long.

The guy I bought a Jamal Bradley jersey from in the Applebee's parking lot says his source says OP's source is incorrect and the buyout chance is only at 84.6%.

Still one of the greatest moments in message board history

That was a legendary thread.

 

[JFCats22]

So UK is going to pay Cal a ton of money to leave but not really leave and still kind of be involved in the program??

Sure, I totally believe that.

A new coach would definitely lineup to come to UK in that scenario 🙄

 

[J-Ryan]

When did they report this? Because if it was last night then it was already talked about on here

Nothing new reported…

 

[ACTSEAN]

Mitch and alcohol, I don't see it.

Maybe a gummy?

 

[ChicagoCat1990]

I'm hearing the same things. Also, Donovan and Wright are the short list for his replacement.

Ok

Honestly I don't even remember the thread too much. I just remember something about buying jerseys in an Applebee's parking lot. And I'm pretty sure the Jamal Bradley mistake was from another thread.

Let him recruit and sit in the first row.

 

[HoneyMoon155]

Ok

You really don’t want him to go do you?

I bet his family is telling him that we don't deserve his awesomeness so take a deal and move out of KY right away.

 

[ukcatz12]

Cal is leaving to coach IUPUI(pronounced Ooey Pooey). Apropos landing spot considering the last 4 seasons he's coached at Kentucky.

Didn't they just fold their basketball program? Unless this is the joke I'm missing?

Yeah I’m hearing Jay Wright left the CBS studio and is now in Kentucky helping Cal pack his bags

Whatever keeps him away from the team

Two years?

I mean I’m fine with Cal sticking around to help with recruiting but I wouldn’t want him anywhere near coaching decisions

No one post more BS on this site than you .

News on the street is Barney has the buyout on a fast paste track.

Yes he is
Still makes my heart flutter

No coach worth having would ever come to UK without absolute assurances that the basketball program is 100% his baby. Calipari hanging around "to oversee the program from his office"? Forget about it.

This needs to be a clean break, free of any entanglements or even the appearance of same.

 

[TM2013]

Can't imagine a desirable coach would want to come here if Cal is still lurking around

 

[cathouse]

Mitch and alcohol, I don't see it.

If he was ever going to drink, now would be the time.

 

[Bereacat420]

I bet you’re sad.

I sure am

Yeah that’s the only issue I’d find, I still think he could be an asset especially recruiting but it would be a delicate balance.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

I hope Cals not involved in the program in any way. At least not in the near term. He will be a distraction. He needs to find another gig and try to reinvent himself. If in the future he came back and was around the program that would be fine.

I would prefer him in the front office involved in recruiting and not involved in coaching.

 

[NothinButNylon]

Cal to Michigan! You heard it first from Dr. Bubba. UM has a cam on Cal's door so it must be true.

Since a hundred people said this yesterday, how about you being 101st.

 

[Fox2monk]

But you remember what happened there this long ago! That’s what makes it legendary.

Check the flight logs!!!!! Any inbound flights to Lexington?

 

[Bkocats]

Calipari wouldn’t give up coaching
His ego is too great
And he sure as hell wouldn’t step down to anything less than control of the basketball program

 

[stereonut]

Don't ask Col. Jessup. He will lie about it!

Never work.
There is NO coach who would want Cal talking to recruits he will be responsible for coaching.

Who would want the kind of roster that Cal recruits???
There is always a missing piece or two on any Cal roster that he has put together other than 2012.

So you let the coach build the roster and maybe bring Cal in to convince a one or two elite freshmen to commit by talking up his NBA connections.

Probably the cashier at Kroger where Cal or Mitch by their Boone's Farm.
