Mitch Needs to be Fired

[Farsight]

Sorry but what has he done for our basketball program? The fact that he has no relationship with Cal is absurd and not doing his job as an AD. He's the guy in charge of the entire department. I don't care if he doesn't like Cal, do your damn job and make an ultimatum. He allowed the life time contract to a guy who never deserved it. If Cal won in 2015 maybe. If he won 3 titles, then he deserved that.

I do NOT Trust Mitch to make the next hire.

If he really likes Scott Drew, he can't get it done in the Big 12 this year. Bah.

 

[Wildcats1st]

It should have happened two years ago. The guy is awful. Ukbb has been suspect under his very long tenure as Ad

 

[Cefiro]

Never gonna happen, but he’s slowly ruining UK athletics with these terrible contracts!

[kybloo92]

Needs to be held accountable for putting UK in a bind with Cal with the horse shit contract instead of calling his bluff to UCLA. Would be much better off 4 years into a new coach though I don't trust his ass in coach hirings.

 

[wildcatglenn]

And his extension to Elzy. She has run the girls in the ground

 

[Farsight]

What does Mitch have to say about this? Why does he also get off scott free? Like seriously. If this was your job there would be talking too or at least consequences.

 

[Farsight]

If Cal wears the pants in the relationship then that should be an automatic fire for Mitch. I don't care.

Lifelong contract was a super big screw up!

Basketball sucks
Baseball sucks
Women’s basketball sucks
He is beyond incompetent yet some think he has done a great job. Total lunacy.

Amen. There are some Mitch shills just as bad as Cal shills. They must spend part of their excessive salaries on message board plants.

We haven't won the SECT since 2018.
Haven't won an NCAAT game since 2019

As I mentioned in another thread...Boeheim (rightfully and obviously forced out at Syracuse in spite of being the ENTIRETY of their successful history) has more recent tournament wins and a more recent Final Four than Cal. Disgusting.

Football is doing great however. Heck we are going to build a statue of our HOF football coach. You don't fire the
AD that is doing that with football in the SEC

 

[Farsight]

Whose in charge of Mitch?

 

[Blueworld_3.0]

Who is going to fire MB? The BoT love the guy as he brings in the $$$. The only way Barnhart feels any heat is if fans stop going to games in very large numbers. Remember a empty Commonwealth Stadium for a 40 point beatdown by Vandy in Joker's last year? It's going to take more than that.

Correct. People need to realize that the fans of this program have a collective voice that can bring about change, but if we keep showing up in droves and paying high ticket prices and eating overrated ice cream, the admin has no incentive to do anything differently.

I, for one, will not be attending another UK bball game until Cal is gone.

The UK President loves Barnhart. He isn’t going anywhere. And it’s a damn shame because the right AD could get this shit right pretty quickly.

What do you expect for 9 million dollars a year?

Football is doing great? What team are you watching? 😂

 

[bbncal02]

Men’s BB: Sucks
Women’s BB: Sucks
Baseball: Not great
Football: Sucked last year considering. Wait and see this year.

It’s time for Mitch to go. Like Cal he had us churning for a while. But he’s lost his fire too.

I think that was sarcasm.

Oh, my bad then! I should have caught that 🤣

When we won these are the same clowns who swore up and down he was forced to Cal?

It should have happened when he hired BCG. Or hired Joker or the baseball coaches or the women’s coach. He is a disaster

Too bad clueless message board fans who never attended UK and contribute nothing to UK have zero pull with the board of trustees.
