Put the $77 mil out there for Hurley. Then offer the guy everyone, including Hurley, knows will take the job. Let the pressure rise for a bit and wait for a call from Connecticut.

This is classic, ball busting, hard as nails Mitch Barnhart negotiating folks

 

[_Chase_]

If it’s Drew I’m cool with it. I feel like half the reason people are “meh” on Drew is because it’s been known for a few years that he’s Mitch’s guy.

If they had zero relationship, it seems like there would be people saying what about Scott Drew? He’s done the nearly impossible at Baylor and is recruiting 5 stars to that shit hole.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Drew was held in high regard around here, until the job actually opened up, and dreams of Hurley and Donovan took hold.

 

[jayroon]

Could be possible he accepts contingent upon him what Hurley says first or to put some pressure on Hurley.

Poster on Trilly when asked if seperate offers could both be out for DH and SD:
“ Yes you do. Maybe not in business but in coaching industry you see who would take what. It’s not a “the job is yours with this offer” it’s a “would you take this”

Should have hired Mark Pope, then it would have been Pope Pope, or Pope squared...

 

[RunninRichie]

What are you hearing?

 

[It'saDoneDeal]

Drew would kill it here, and the fanbase would fall in love with him with a quickness.

I don't think the younger fans who grew up as part of the cult of Cal realize how powerful the Kentucky machine is. Kentucky elevates every coach that comes here as long as your sober. Drew at Kentucky is a powerhouse.

Didn’t one of Drew’s assistants threaten to have somebody deported if they didn’t sign with Baylor? I don’t mind that kind of energy, to be honest.

I’ll take that over letting a NBA lottery pick sit on the bench. As my team is down two guards. TyTy and Grady banged up and letting a top ten pick hang out on the bench. Use our resources but won’t play. That was it for me with Cal.

 

[HymanKaplan]

I'd invite everyone to get on youtube, and re-watch what Baylor did to that Gonzaga machine 3 years ago, and then tell me that Scott Drew can't coach.

 

[RunninRichie]

Need a JDrummond bomb asap. What the hell is going on?

Also lied to the NCAA so street cred there too.

Relax and let it unfold.

I would slap someone IRL if they suggested Dawn Staley as a legit choice

Courier Journal has an article up about how we should do that

 

[Ron Mehico]

Anyone of the coaches mentioned would absolutely murder it with Sheppard, Z, Thiero, and some top shelf transfers. We’ve been spoiled and have lost complete track of how incredibly talented we were last year and have been due to Cals almost criminal misuse. The more reality is setting in that we don’t have to deal with whatever the hell Cal has been doing with the ridiculous talent the last six years the more excited I get.

 

[Kooky Kats]

She disqualified her search showing her gnarled toes in that Oofos commercial. 👎🏻

Rack em

 

[Geese Feeder]

Big fan of Scott Drew.

Sign on the line and lessssseffingooooooo.

 

[justa]

Drew assts have been on staff for 7, 8, & 14 yrs.

Imagine not turning over the entire staff every year. Brooks looks like a helluva recruiter

 

[HymanKaplan]

Drew would be the first coach to come to Kentucky, that had already won a National Championship when they got here, IIRC...

 

[rudd1]

Note the Date

 

[roguemocha]

Mitch has the presidential pardon going right now with this hire. He’s in the waning years and if it’s great awesome, ride off into the sunset, if not, he at least swung for the fences once in his life and no one would get mad at him if Hurley or Donovan “failed” here.

Do it Mitch, one time, go with what your balls tell you, not the Bible.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Rudd Johnson is RIGHT!

 

[FargenBastich]

I guess we'll be heading back to Maui at some point and I plan on going. That would be a bucket list item for me.

 

[bbonds]

Maui burned down

 

[TCPUKChamps]

I'm all in with Scott Drew. It is totally fine and he'll kill it here.

 

[FargenBastich]

Did they move the tournament to another island?

Randall's been hacked.

 

[Hank Camacho]

Also lied to the NCAA so street cred there too.

What's Dwayne Casey up to? We don't need him on the bench but in some sort of compliance role? Damn straight.

 

[HymanKaplan]

That Gonzaga game looked like a bunch of guys from the 'burbs wandered up to 142nd and Lenox avenue to play pickup LOL

 

[bbonds]

Did they move the tournament to another island?

It was in Vegas in 22, and Oahu in 23. Who knows if they’ll return. The Civic Center is fine.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

Randall's been hacked.

I'm just tired. 6 years of being exhaustingly 100% correct took its toll on me mentally.

Excited to just enjoy UK Basketball again. He did that shit at effing BAYLOR. If Kentucky is what we all believe it is, sky is the limit.

 

[Kooky Kats]

124th

 

[HymanKaplan]

124th is gentrified

 

[Strokin_Bandit]

When’s the last time UK had a bald(ing) coach? I have my doubts.

 

[It'saDoneDeal]

I don't think most realize how utter garbage Baylor's basketball program was before Drew got there.

Since 1950, until Drew was hired, they appeared in --one-- NCAA tourney. One. 1987. The only 20+ win season they'd had in 50 years prior to Drew being hired. And they lost in the first round, lol. The fact he's made Waco, TX a basketball destination is absolutely wild.

Put a guy like that at Kentucky? That's going to be a powerhouse.

Cal was so bad at the end with all the things he just refused to do that I'm excited literally just for things to be possible again. A zone is possible. The Maui invitational is possible. Getting a straight answer on an injury is possible. It's very exciting.

He can focus on basketball and not on stupid shit like combs imo.
