Everybody but Cal knew this years ago.
In the end he will because he wants to continue coaching. He’s not going out like this.I agree. But I was hopeful he would negotiate a buyout.
Give me a great x and o coach with 5 star freshman I like my chances. Cal couldn’t win this tourney if he hand picked his teamThis is the TRUTH! Even the most dominant freshmen 5 star recruits struggle against average older players. Muscle has so much to do with it.
Yup. Doesn't matter how the fans feel, Cal will be here until he's fired or his contract expires. And unless Barney finds like $35 million, which he won't, Cal isn't getting fired.
@chattanoogawildcat you can’t possible think calipri is still the answer for Kentucky anymore? Do you?I’ll drive to Waco and help Scott drew move here at this point
Don’t abide, dude. Never abide.I was able to give him the benefit of the doubt for the 9-16 team as a fluke after COVID year.
I was able to give him the benefit of the doubt of a couple years of early round upsets, it's happened to all the greats.
But I cannot abide this one. Time for new blood.
Are you joking? For as much time as you spend on this board you obviously haven't seen my recent post?@chattanoogawildcat you can’t possible think calipri is still the answer for Kentucky anymore? Do you?
It was my grandfather on here all night, I just logged on 20 mins ago. So my apologizes but what did you say?Are you joking? For as much time as you spend on this board you obviously haven't seen my recent post?
Btw, who is Calipri?@chattanoogawildcat you can’t possible think calipri is still the answer for Kentucky anymore? Do you?
You quoted itIt was my grandfather on here all night, I just logged on 20 mins ago. So my apologizes but what did you say?
I quoted your question to me, I didn’t quote anything else you said, but I’m gonna assume your team cal goneYou quoted it
Your team cal gone....what???I quoted your question to me, I didn’t quote anything else you said, but I’m gonna assume your team cal gone
Appreciate your take. I just think we can do so much better than Pearl. Time needs to be taken to make the right hire and not rush into hiring too quickly.Yeah I don't get down with judging people like that. At least he respects the history of Uk basketball and understands the fans desire to win. I think we would still get good recruits with him and he coaches his teams to have an edge.
I"m afraid you are rightIf Mitch Barnhart is allowed to hire Calipari's replacement it's going to be Scott Drew. Just the way it is. I'm fine with that BTW. There may be more desirable options but, not many of them are realistic. Pearl will never even be considered as long as MB is here. So, you say "fire Mitch too"? Not going to happen. The Board of Trustees and the President love him. He's a money-maker and that's all they care about.
So, best case scenario right now is Calipari leaves or is bought out and is replaced by Scott Drew.
Bruce would do good because he’s hungry for a title and never been a coach at a blue blood program.Donovan isn’t coming. Hurley isn’t coming. Bruce Pearl is the perfect fit. Would crush it here. Too bad Barney sucks at his job too
Jay Wright didn't excite anyone until he won 2 titles. Scott Drew didn't either until he won one. There are people who can coach, given the right circumstances.Unfortunately nobody out there excites me as a replacement.
Cal’s shelf life is expired at UK. Need new energy and culture
I would like to think there is also but I just don't see who it would be. I think some of the names people bring up are just silly and unrealistic. The former nba coach types just seem like a bad fit. It takes a certain personality to coach at college level.Appreciate your take. I just think we can do so much better than Pearl. Time needs to be taken to make the right hire and not rush into hiring too quickly.
A lot of what you are upset with is my grandfather, he is the one who gets out of control on here 95 percent of time. I may finally delete the account off his phone finally, but I don’t see how anybody can defend cal anymoreYour team cal gone....what???
Dude, nobody said I defend Cal. Where are you getting this nonsense?A lot of what you are upset with is my grandfather, he is the one who gets out of control on here 95 percent of time. I may finally delete the account off his phone finally, but I don’t see how anybody can defend cal anymore
Did I say you were? I’m saying nobody can defend him anymore, didn’t cal you out after the intial post. I did the first time but I’m not calling you out I’m just stating a factDude, nobody said I defend Cal. Where are you getting this nonsense?
You could make it 20 and he wouldnt come to ukThrow $12 mil a year at Donovan.
You or your grandfather or whoever is posting is confusing. Move on please.Did I say you were? I’m saying nobody can defend him anymore, didn’t cal you out after the intial post. I did the first time but I’m not calling you out I’m just stating a fact
That coach is out there even though he may not be a house-hold name. That said, I don't know who yet it might be and I'm OK with it. I just want a committee to take the time and look at all candidates and that person doesn't have to be some "so-called" marquee name. Todd Golden is a good example of the "type" of candidate that might be intriguing to consider. No one really knew much about Pitino before he was hired. Just my thoughts. I absolutely don't want Barnhart to unilaterally make the hire. All the best.I would like to think there is also but I just don't see who it would be. I think some of the names people bring up are just silly and unrealistic. The former nba coach types just seem like a bad fit. It takes a certain personality to coach at college level.
I asked you a question about if you were still on team cal, you started getting defensive and deflecting the question. But have a good night, I just wanted to know what you thoughYou or your grandfather or whoever is posting is confusing. Move on please.
You are one strange dude. Go to deplion's thread .I asked you a question about if you were still on team cal, you started getting defensive and deflecting the question. But have a good night, I just wanted to know what you though
He's exactly right, and I said it earlier today in some other thread here. All our first round draft picks are fools gold when it comes to college success. A first round pick means you'll be a good NBA player in a year or more, not that you're necessarily an elite player now.
I like Golden alsoThat coach is out there even though he may not be a house-hold name. That said, I don't know who yet it might be and I'm OK with it. I just want a committee to take the time and look at all candidates and that person doesn't have to be some "so-called" marquee name. Todd Golden is a good example of the "type" of candidate that might be intriguing to consider. No one really knew much about Pitino before he was hired. Just my thoughts. I absolutely don't want Barnhart to unilaterally make the hire. All the best.
I’m am literally just asking you what you thought, and you are taking shots and being a prick. Jesus Christ dude, I just wanted to know what a cal fanboy though now, but **** your opinion, go shove it your ass for all I careYou are one strange dude. Go to deplion's thread .
Why don't you just come try to do that yourself bitch?I’m am literally just asking you what you thought, and you are taking shots and being a prick. Jesus Christ dude, I just wanted to know what a cal fanboy though now, but **** your opinion, go shove it your ass for all I care
I think there's a good chance Todd Golden is the best coach in the SEC.Todd Golden is a good example of the "type" of candidate that might be intriguing to consider.
It's ironic that both Tony Bennett and Cal echoing the same statements basically after another embarrassing loss for both.
Of course. But you’re trusting Mitch Barnhart to identify them.Jay Wright didn't excite anyone until he won 2 titles. Scott Drew didn't either until he won one. There are people who can coach, given the right circumstances.
They just increased his salary to $4.1 million. We could certainly offer him a bigger raise.I think there's a good chance Todd Golden is the best coach in the SEC.
