Are you sure about that? Cal seems to have been working on this Arkansas deal for a while in violation of those same contract provisions. When the smoke clears we might get some more insight into how everything developed. But the salient point is that Cal was planning his exit strategy, even dating back to the regular season if some reports are correct. He may not have been staying regardless to deal with the mess he made.

Yes Cal had been working on this for a while. And it has been mentioned that he knew he was violating the terms of his contract, but obviously didn't care, just like he didn't care about anything UK. That would explain the apathy about winning. Did he tank the tournaments knowing he was looking to leave? I wouldn't put it past him. I had asked in another thread if he didn't let Mitch know in advance, was that a contract violation. Well, I got my answer. It apparently IS a violation. The more that comes out about things, Cal becomes scummier (is that a word?) by the day. You would think other schools would see him as the trash he is and not want anything to do with him. I guess Arkansas is not that smart. Doesnot surprise me. Good riddance, Cal.
Since Oats said he’s not interested, it tells me he either wasn’t asked or the Kentucky stage is too big for him. No one turns down Kentucky versus Alabama basketball unless the stage is too big.
Which I don’t get at all! These same dudes were probably terrified to ask out the hot chicks for the same reasons 🤣
No, he tanked the tournaments because he can't coach 5 NBA players to a win against Oakland.
I don't disagree with this. He is awful to watch on the sidelines. But, he is the best coach in college basketball at the moment.
