Forde has a deep hatred of the fanbase dating back to his suspension, and how some of us trolled him mercilessly during that time. He's not a legit or unbiased source of anything UK related.

Bingo. If he wanted to coach, he would have been coaching the last few years making $10M+ at the place of his choice. The guy wants an office job making $5M per year without the pressure of winning the next game. Not a thing wrong with thatj
We know that Forde stated, upon Cal’s hiring, that he would get Cal fired. Go back and read some of Forde’s stuff in the 2009 - 2012 time frame. Remember the Eric Bledsoe didn’t graduate high school, AD’s parents were paid $100K, etc.? At the time, Forde was in tight with Jurich and Pitino. If cal tried to get him fired, it was justifiable payback.
Forde hates UK and the fanbase. It's no secret he has over the years, read Rupp Rafters, as he's admitted so. He and Bilas mock the "lunatic fringe" base that comes with BBN. BILAS referenced this last night on ESPN.
Forde just trolled BBN, don't be a idiot and believe it.

Clarification:
"industry insider" = someone that works in the entire NBA industry, which isn't small, who just speculated and then told Forde his speculation.
If Forde's "source" in the "industry" knew more, he'd have provided more. As in "what makes this person believe this is the case?".
Stevens is the GM of the best team in the NBA. They are chasing a championship. I doubt he has given the UK job one second of thought..who starts this nonsense..I expect to see Pat Riley's name bantered about.
To be fair 99% of fans on here have always said Stevens has no chance.
Pat Forde just said this. Not “this group”
And ffs don't click on anything or engage with Forde. All the troll wants is more attention.
He tried to get Forde fired too? The story that Goodman tells of Cal trying to get him fired has been out for many years, I never heard that he tried to get Forde fired.
I've been thinking that since this whole thing started. How many raises did he get off of UK? And they never called him!!
Well... the Celtics do owe us one. Just sayin'.
Pat Forde is a giant walking SCROTUM. So I actually fully support Calipari if he attempted to get him fired.
I love the people that are just like yea, there’s zero chance.
Screw that. You all don’t know anything. You have no idea how that man feels about his current situation. And if you’re feeling really skippy, go look at his salary and realize we can easily triple it and then some

Stevens is one of the greatest basketball minds to never win anything. If that passion for coaching is still in there somewhere, he could come to the greatest program, have all the tools and resources, and have 20+ years left to build his legacy and become rich rich rich.
Not saying there’s any chance, but def something to think about. You got to at least pitch it to him.

I was actually thinking that I liked Cal better knowing that he tried to get Fjorde fixed. Maybe we should match Arkansas' offer?
I'm of the opinion that you never talk yourself out of asking out the prettiest girl and never listen to others that think she won't go out with you. If you like her, ask her out and screw what anyone thinks about it.
I don’t think it will happen, but here’s the case. He is still a very young man who got very close to a championship. After being away for a while, is there not a part of him thinking, “I could win multiple titles at UK. Yes, it’s a different set of headaches, but I could be remembered as one of the legendary coaches of all time”.
Do I think it’s going to happen? No. Would I be just totally shocked if it did? Pleasantly surprised, but not shocked.

That makes my heart skip a beat!!! Imagine for a second Steven's coaching, Reed and Travis Perry in the same backcourt. Big Blue Orgasm 💙 😍
I'm not believing ANYTHING Pat Horntoad says. The dude HATES UK! He's just trying to gets hits.
Especially since the Celtics are doing so poorly.
Just kidding.
At the time Stevens confirmed that he talked to Indiana and was interested but decided to leave the decision to his family. His wife and kids wanted to stay in Boston. He also said that he was not offered $70M for 10 years. It was less than that.
