Do you watch Baylor? It’s a poor man’s cal team
Hurley offered

Ok, so post it then. I cannot believe he knows this, posted it and literally no other person in the media has reposted it or confirmed it. I don’t buy it at all
If you’re right, I’ll eat a massive pile of crow
Not even for the $. All UConn will do is come as close as possible and give him more years and some perks that he/wife will enjoy. This isn't Nick Saban's wife hating Miami and wanting to be in college town/atmosphere. His wife loves the setup being close to their extended families and embraced by UConn before the winning. He's a fit there and have seen the Pitino comparison throw out but omitting Pitino saying "My biggest mistake was leaving UK"--i.e. leaving where you are the king of the sport on top.
Love to be wrong but just feel we're heading for Drew once Cal left after knowing he turned down UofL. Preparing myself to support Coach Drew and hope he utilizes the resources Kentucky can provide. Don't settle for being Baylor in Lexington-go get best staff possible, talent, etc...
I’m not saying I'm right. I have no idea how much he wants to be home. I’m saying UConn isn’t keeping him there
UK does have some things going for them. More resources, and a much more sound returning roster, believe it or not. Uconn is losing 5 and Hurley knows this. He *could* stand to have a better roster at UK in day 1.
I dont like the condescending comments tho. Not true on both of your second sentence assertions
Well he'd better hurry up and accept $11m / year because Drew apparently has an offer on the table as well.
Dude . You can’t just post premium stuff from the HOB board on Rupp rafters . Surely you know that.
Hurley's recruiting will benefit significantly from Cal leaving UK. I expect UConn and UNC to benefit the most from Cal leaving Lexington. Cal in Fayetteville isn't the same at Cal at UK. It'll be very good but not what we grew accustomed to--more like his Memphis days IMO
seems like Drum heard from a "money guy" they were prepared to offer $11m
but I would assume that Barnhart didn't bite on that and went with his buddy, Drew
Now the question is - does Drew come to Ky for whatever...I'm guessing $6.5M?

If that’s the case and Mitch didn’t go for that he needs FIRED…..
And evidently that’s his wife’s problem. So UConn could probably get to within about 5mil per year of our offer . So over 5 years that’s 25 million dollars. If she won’t leave she must REALLY love that place, lol .
Did
Did Torres put this out? If so he’s either trolling or it has real legs bc AT is a huge UConn fan and tapped into that program as well. He wouldn’t add fuel to the fire and cares about his rep in the industryIt's time
If he's the guy, I'll support him 100%. They tried to get the guys I liked ahead of him and they declined. Drew needs to embrace changing some things too. Use the resources to improve his current staff.
That’s ridiculous. Whether you like or want Scott Drew or if you don’t. He always has teams that appear well coached .
Would suck to be paying for HOB and have JDrum on ignore....
Don’t worry bro, my cousin’s girlfriend’s sister’s classmate’s neighbor confirmed it.
This is what I want clarification on. This isn't recruiting where the first to accept gets it. You offer one coach, if they decline, you move on to the next option. If Hurley declined I'd think we would have heard about it. Something isn't adding up, or someone has bad sources.
