A first round loss.
Change the locks. Announce a vacancy.
No discussion. Have lawyers negotiate a settlement.
Mitch is forced to resign for signing contract.
A second round loss. Mitch calls Cal and invites him to participate in how he leaves. Give him the option to resign with a fraction of his buyout. Let him know that under no circumstances will he coach at UK next season and it will be a cold day in Hell before he gets the full sum of his buyout.
Sweet 16. Encourage him to resign with honor. Allow him to make his case to return. Set specific objectives that must be met if he stays.
Elite 8. Very similar to sweet 16 with a friendlier tone.
Final 4. Good improvement. Now what’s the plan to improve upon that next year? Who’s coming back? How do the new recruits fit in? Are we starting a new roster all over again?
Championship. Keep up the good work coach.
