Flight from Waco nearing Lexington; TV crews at Airport

This is hilarious if it is someone going to Keenland. Imagine if it is Chip and Joanna Gaines.
Imagine not wanting a coach that won a championship at freakin baylor. from 1950-2003 when they hired Drew they made ONE tournament. ONE. Thats worse than vandy.
If Drew is the guy as expected then he is going to trip out when he finds out what a big job this is as he steps out of the airplane
Get Hurley to UK asap and give him a blank check and ask him to fill out what it will take. Please
Drew isn’t my first choice but he’s an upgrade over Cal and that’s not debatable
His floor is pretty high. I don't think we'll ever be lousy under him.
I'm just not convinced his ceiling is all that high though.
Yeah, he had a great run to the title at Baylor. That was an amazing accomplishment, but outside of that, his teams have had pretty pedestrian postseason performances.
That's ultimately what caused the fans to turn on Cal.
Apparently his wife is with him and she's an extreme introvert. Wonder how that's going to go over when she gets off the plane and there are 200 media cameras popping like the paparazzi.
I would imagine this is a done deal. Mitch wants it done and likes Drew. He probably gauged some others reactions. I will be excited to see what he can do. Hurley is the hot ticket but did people think he would really leave UConn his dream job after winning a second championship.
Probably got mixed reactions from Donovan but can't afford to wait and drag this out as it could be a very bad look especially if The Bulls turn it around and he waffles again. Bird in hand

Mitch knew he wanted his friend here from day one.
I'm on board with this. I think he'll do great here. He can bring some players with him, meet with the current UK players soon and maybe steal a recruit or two from Cal.
Sounds like the boosters like him too and are guaranteeing big NIL money. NIL was a disaster under Cal and his staff. It'll be nice to have some coaches that actually gameplan, make in-game adjustments and can navigate the NIL world.

Did anyone think Pitino's ceiling was as high as it was? He had one final four at providence. No evidence he was going to go on one of the greatest runs in kentucky history
Same for Tubby. No final fours. he coached at Tulsa. Nothing said he would win a title or come close to multiple final fours
Same for Hall. He had no head coaching experience
Calipari was the only successful hire that people thought was a home run when he was hired and only because of his recruiting
Drew has a higher ceiling than everyone except Cal and he probably is at the same level as Cal in terms of expected ceiling at hiring
True. Good assessment. I'd just add that there's a big difference, and longer shelf life for Drew, is; 1) the product being sold, and 2) the personality. The two programs will be night and day difference. A Scott Drew program being mediocre is much more palatable than Cal's player first mediocre program.
that's fine, but if it comes out we never even waited for Hurley to respond to a 11 million a year offer, Mitch needs to be fired.
And is that a problem? What if his friend was Hurley. Would you say the same thing?
How funny would it be if Billy Gillespie walked out of the plane?
