Is Cal The Perfect Villain?

Darth Cal has risen. He IS definitely a villain now. He's crapped on and mocked this fanbase for YEARS.
We don't need to make him the enemy. Don't need to boo him at Rupp. He did great things for the program and the state and his jersey will be retired and hanging in the rafters one day. I know it's a sensitive subject right now with our recruiting class following him but that's typical of any coach leaving. I wish he would've taken a job outside of the SEC but other than that I wish him well. Go Cats.
he is a bloated ego kneeler

It is funny how that swung full circle. Now we’re loving Pitino and hating Calipari.
Who could’ve imagined that turn of events a decade ago?
Agree OP, now let’s beat his ass by 30 every time he steps foot in Rupp Arena.
Let's retire that nickname. It's an all-time bad one
At the end of the day, regardless of what you believe, it's all opinion and everyone is entitled to how they feel about it. I for one, am glad he is gone and wish to move forward, but I agree I don't think he is like a bad guy, just not a good fit any longer. Of course, fanhood never is rational
Yikes, you sir are far too reasonable at a time like this.
Don't you realize everyone who is not with you at the moment is the embodiment of evil?
Cal is 65, he won’t be doing this much longer. I would not be surprised if he jumps to the NBA in a year or 2. It would be quite funny if an NBA team hired him away this offseason
Strange that you have this GIF ready to go at a moment's notice. Almost like it might be in a favorites folder of yours or something......
I was just saying that exact point. He is not a villain. I'm thankful for his time here and hope we beat him everytime we play him kinda like we did with Pitino.
I googled “deep throat” on my phone and clicked on “images”. It was like the 5th or 6th result. Technology is crazy huh?
I think he’s an arrogant maniac, I don’t think he’s an asshole, he’s a kind person.
I don’t think BBN will grow to hate Cal, but he is a villain right now, he won’t be forever.
He’s a competitor and he wants to out compete us specifically and shine in his new job. He will be motivated and try harder than he was going to in year 16 here, he will have unlimited money to offer players.
I still think the game of basketball has passed him by and that he will still have some hang-ons to how he likes to do things that all the talent in the world isn’t going to fix. I think he will lose 10+ games a year for 3-4 seasons and then retire, and identify his career as being the National Champion at Kentucky while supporting us from afar.
He was grossly overpaid and intentionally did not try to win as a number one priority. Rather it was promoting his precious one and dones by playing them when they did not deserve it . He did not have loyalty to UK or Big Blue Nation. He is a jerk
Your points are well thought out.
I never hated Cal, I just grew tired of the post season failures of the past few years.
The administration held themselves hostage and should count his leaving a blessing that saved them enough to pay for the 5 year contract that Pope signed. * Kinda like getting a coach for free.
Good job!
Signed,
Glad Cal's gone, but agree with your points.
Wait... you GOOGLED THAT and then looked through MULTIPLE results.....
Wow, that is not making it better.
I don't think he's a villain. In 15 years, people will look back on the fonder times Cal was here. Until he retires, he's the coach of a competitor. I hope we whip his butt.
I think he thinks he got a raw deal here and will definitely become a villain over the next few years.
As of now, like someone else said, he’s just an ass hole.

He not only can’t coach, he doesn’t even care about winning. That’s 2 easy 20-30 point wins every year, we should be happy.
A rebuttal like this would be seen by far fewer people if it was embedded in another thread.
I like it. I think it highlights some good points. Cal might've been stubborn, but at least he got out before he drove us completely into the ground.
I don’t like that he’s got Jerry Jones promising recruits he will pay them double what we pay in NIL. He’s a rival now. It is what it is.
I would love to just forget about Cal and move on. But you're living in a fantasy land if you think that's possible. If Cal is even moderately successful in his first year and Pope struggles, the media will have a field day with it, along with rival fans and the few KY fans that still support him. So even if we choose to let it go, they won't let us. We absolutely need to crush Cal and show that UK is bigger than any one coach and that Cal needed to go. And anyone would be naive as hell to think that Cal doesn't want to crush KY. He wants to prove the opposite and will likely work his ass off to do so. So yes, he's the enemy right now. Maybe one day when he retires we can sing kumbaya with him in Rupp. But for now,
Yippee Ki‐Yay asshole!
Yippee Ki‐Yay asshole!

On the contrary. It made me laugh. Couple of funny ones in there. Some head scratchers. And a whole lot of girls eating bananas.
