Did Lon Kruger just move in front of Nate Oats?

[Kybluedude]

As our new coach?

 

[the nail at the foul line]

No

 

[LmdCat]

As our new coach?

There is no way Nate Oats would ever consider taking the UK job. He knows how difficult it would be to cleanup Cal's mess.

 

[Orville Boggs]

What is John Beilein into these days?

There’s no mess. It’s a goldmine job. Every coach in the country would jump to get an offer

 

[the nail at the foul line]

There’s no mess.

[onearmedjesus]

Lon is like what, 90 years old? Respect the hyperbole.

 

[YardCat]

As our new coach?

Hell No

 

[wccat2969]

Guess this loss ruins Oats thoughts that his guys know how to win.

 

[doc4UK]

Our next coach will come from the NBA

Our next coach will come from the NBA

Why?

 

[drbubba]

Lon Kruger is a great coach, but close to retirement. I even liked the guy when he was at Florida. I would have loved to see him as UK's coach, but I think his window is closing. He'll probably coach 1 or 2 more years, then retire.

 

[Cawood86]

As our new coach?

Yes. From here forward, any game Nate Oats or Chris Beard lose, the winning coach is ahead of them.
Attn: UK is 5-10 this year. I repeat UK is 5-10 this year.

 

[Cawood86]

Guess this loss ruins Oats thoughts that his guys know how to win.

Yes it does. Any coach UK will hire in the future must never have lost a game. Will be hard but it is what it is.

 

[wccat2969]

Why?

Did they win?

 

[SmedMoley]

These kind of threads crack me up. Yeah, Oats is doing so much worse than Cal this year. You sure got us!

Oats is a sure fire HOFamer

 

[kyjeff1]

Oats is a sure fire HOFamer

If Kelvin Sampson is a Hall of Famer, any coach that has won a college game is a Hall of Famer.

 

[SmedMoley]

Oats is a sure fire HOFamer

Who said that?

Who said that?

75% of Rupp Rafters.

 

[Roe07]

Travis Ford or John Pelphrey.

75% of Rupp Rafters.

They did? Nah. You're embellishing for emphasis.

 

[RunninRichie]

They did? Nah. You're embellishing for emphasis.

“wanting a coach=he’s a hall of famer”-Cals disciples.

 

[Zissou87]

Travis Ford or John Pelphrey.

Add Sean Woods and Mark Pope

 

[Roe07]

Add Sean Woods and Mark Pope

No not Pope. We need a true “Kentucky boy.” Someone who knows what it means to wear the jersey with pride.

Sure, Ford and Pelphrey have failed miserably everywhere they’ve been, but I have no doubt one of those guys could take UK back to the promised land because they love Kentucky.

 

[WildcatfaninOhio]

Any coach that won their last game is a prime candidate to be UK’s next coach. And if they lost their last game, they’re out of the running. Awesome!

 

[Zissou87]

Probably throw in Scott Padgett as well.

This is some serious hyperbowl right here. Sh*t post man.

 

[MakinMusic]

Typical of our fan base to flip flop on something over one game. 😂

 

[sluggercatfan]

I'm 70...5 different coaches have won a NC here in my lifetime. NO other school can . say that. Think KENTUCKY will/would be fine.

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

Next coach is Kenny Payne’s if Cal moves on in the next couple of years

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

Add Sean Woods and Mark Pope

Mark Pope would be second to Kenny Payne...IMHO

 

[Pickle_Rick]

I would take Kelvin Sampson right now.

 

[Doodah859]

Lmao so stupid

 

[Zissou87]

I hope not. It needs to be someone outside of Cal's coaching tree. His coaching tree is awful.

 

[Lightbringer123]

Fred Hoiberg dude can coach...

 

[yoshukai]

Next coach is Kenny Payne’s if Cal moves on in the next couple of years

I just can’t imagine UK ever hiring a head basketball coach that has never been a head coach. Not these days.

Pelphry was a great assistant and recruiter at UF. He struggled ay Arkansas, but I'd love to see him as an assistant at UK. I'm not so sure about Travis Ford.

So true lol
