Cal couldn't go undefeated

And I feel like Gillespie would still be coaching here if he was winning titles.
UK may have swept a lot under the rug, but not the booty grabbing sexual harassment of coeds...then he went to the pokey if memory serves and just cause was hatched...

Clyde thought he was entitled to same privileges as the players...
 
But Father Time still is. The only UK coach who knew the game was passing him by was Hall. He even said in his retirement press conference he "didn't want to be an old coach."

Cal still thinks if he can just catch a break or two it will come back.
You can be an old coach and be successful, but you have to be willing to change and be innovative, neither of which Cal is willing to do.

WRONG - Tubby and Joe B pushed out for far less than Couch Cal and Rupp was 72 and in poor health.

Rupp had gout, diabetes, congestive heart issues and cancer...the man wore house shoes on the sidelines it was so bad...grab a clue...
Rupp was over 70. State law required his retirement. He had no choice. You are right about his health though. Sad state of affairs then.

No coach has ever been fired for on court performance at KY. This ‘pressure’ is nothing but delusion in the minds of ignorant fans. I do like the current coach’s contempt for this blatant stupidity in social media.
 
Bottom line is no Kentucky Basketball coach has ever been fired for performance in the court. Joe Hall retired of his own free will. It was not required.
did i say he was fired..........NO
he was being pushed out just like UNC did with Guthridge
both were allowed to leave with honor intact

believe what you think
either way i am done with this conversation

He’s not up to handling the pressure here in Lexington. That is abundantly clear the minute he faced adversity.

What’s does pushed out mean? That’s hysterical. Pushed out. That’s an amateurish term to make things fit a delusion. Bottom line, is no coach has ever been fired for on court performance at KY. Nor will they be. Pushed out. Laugh.
 
I know you want reptilian years, baiter boy. That should put Cal here another 18. It’s on you.
You like reptiles...right bass?

There definitely were some whining fans but I don't believe there is any real chance either one would have been fired. Hall was one year removed from the final four and was returning a loaded roster.
