If you listened to that tonight and you don’t think in some fashion he has talked to Mitch or the admin and was given certain talking point narratives then that’s naive of you, IMO.
Nice to know Billy Richmond also won a state title.
The idea of Cal getting one last go leads me to believe the coaches I’d most be interested are in the running. Beard and or Oats. Both signing those extensions just really limited the pool of coaches, but I’d much prefer the idea of waiting 1 more year and getting Beard than to settle this year and get a guy that might succeed and have him for 4-5 years while Beard or the like fill IU, KU and other positions taking them out of the running.
Side note, is Richard Pitino a legit candidate for UL? Would seem extremely awkward.
