Kenny Payne,John Robic and Cal's Replacement

[9timeChampion]

Kenny Payne was assistant since 2020, the real start of our misery. John Robic left after our historic bad year. Did they help with them early Cal Teams? Robic was he more of a defense coach, Payne helped with our big men. Do you think since they both left it hurt our program or is it just Cal?
We can find a way to buy Cal out and I think two realistic options would be Scott Drew, and Bruce Pearl. I used to be anti Bruce but he is passionate about winning and he always is favorable toward Kentucky and its fans. The small violation things are no different than what Cal has done.

It's mostly Cal. I doubt those two made any meaningful contributions. Cal doesn't let his assistants do that.

KP was here since 2010 until he left.

I think the loss of both of these assistants hurt bad. Robic in particular.

Robic did scouting of opponents and game planning. He was with Cal since his Umass days and Cal actually listened to him. Biggest loss for Cal imo

Dwayne Peavy leaving hurt too.

Bingo! Not counting the abysmal 9-16 season, look at how unprepared we look since Robic left.
