So I read elsewhere that Chin may be leaving

[CELTICAT]

Was a fan of Chin, personally. Watched him lead the team through warm ups prior to the High Point game. He had a word for each player and you could tell the team was responding to him. We spent so much of season well prepared and actually made adjustments that won games. In my mind, Chin was responsible for that.

Of course, I could be wrong and John Calipari was the one doing all that, but somehow I doubt it.

 

[villefan76]

I hope he don’t leave, I think he’s a really good assistant.

However, if he does leave, give Derek Anderson a chance.

 

[MudererofCrows]

Sinking ship.

Bet ol Cal doesn’t go down with the ship. He’ll get his golden parachute in a couple of years.

 

[blackcat714]

Promote Brad!

Earned not given

 

[Farsight]

I dated a narcissist for 9 months. They don't like to be to be challenged at all.

And yes, Cal is a narcissist. It's so wild after you date one you can sniff one out

 

[AzubuikeandFitch]

Hope his Chicago ties yield results.

 

[ck-2]

Cal can’t stand being questioned. He’s looking for a yes man.

 

[jrm693]

Not a yes man can’t have someone questioning the General.

THE HOF GENERAL at that, who is making 9.5 for his efforts

 

[shaudyshaud]

He was just with Cal over the weekend at DJ Wagner game .

 

[Seth_C]

If chin leaves replace him with a offensive minded coach

Yeah, so Cal has someone new to ignore and berate!

 

[CowboyGumBoots]

I took it the opposite way of what some of you all are saying. Seems to me after Chin arrived he was nothing but a disruptive force. I didn’t see the other coaches acting the way he did except for the strength coach.

I heard all the “you need to have some fire” arguments. That’s not a good look in setting an example of togetherness for the young men you’re coaching.. You know, the way actual good teams play.

Instead we had a couple hot heads well I say good riddance we’d be better off looking elsewhere. Acting like that come on now

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

He don’t want anyone with balls, only pusses.

Uh you realize that hothead Cal is who he was fighting with so should Cal go too.

 

[CowboyGumBoots]

What’s Chin ever done anyways? The fact that Cal has done it before has bought him one more year. I’m not leasing Chin Coleman a damn thing

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Yeah, so Cal has someone new to ignore and berate!

Cal has heard the noise and knows he has to change I am going to choose to believe he makes the changes, if he doesn’t then it’s definitely time to move on

 

[seccats04]

Chin to Cal: Let’s design some in bounds plays today coach.
Cal to Chin : WHAAAAAAT!

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

9-16 and losing to the Peacocks is enough.How long are people going to let him live off his early success.

 

[CowboyGumBoots]

9-16 and losing to the Peacocks is enough.How long are people going to let him live off his early success.

One more year because he has had success. Like I said Chin on the other hand hasn’t done jack.

Matter of fact Chins been a part of bad and disappointing teams his entire career. Spanning all of about 10 years. So I really fail to see the adoration and defense of him in here, to me he doesn’t deserve any leniency

 

[Seth_C]

That’s the problem. You are going to choose to believe it. Why? Because you want to. There is no evidence, no indication at all that it will occur. You just hope to believe it into reality.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Because calipari is going to be our coach whether we like it or not, if he doesn’t make the changes that he is a ignorant SOB and Kentucky has to do something, but for now Kentucky is stuck with him, I am Kentucky I am always going to believe in Kentucky, there is to much noise for calipari to not atleast some changes

But was she HOT ? Sorry, had to ask .

I get it if I get the people saying he isn’t going to change it not really confident at all he will, but I love Kentucky so much it fools me into belief I will believe up until the season starts, and during the season the cycle will repeat

 

[turkeywildturkey]

No big loss. As long as we keep Orlando and Lucas, we’re good.

 

[Aw34uk1]

Sharpe told his barber that he’s headed to the draft & Chin won’t be back either

 

[TheDude73]

Certainly doesn’t take much to get our current fan base riled up.

“I read it somewhere”.

It’s amazing what qualifies as facts these days.

I mean, as long as you are prepared for disappointment then. Good for you I guess. Haha

Seriously though, in my experience if Cal has “heard the complaints” then in my experience he is more likely just double down on whatever he was doing because his ego drives him to prove people wrong more than anything. Success, in Cal’s mind, is “I’m right and you’re wrong.”

so is Pitino, K, Roy, Saban and almost every other top coach in every sport
so yea i agree they are easy to spot

Absolutely. That's what stings about it lol

I’m fully prepared to be back in the same spot next year, I will believe in Kentucky no matter what, and my hope is a lot of the media outlets plus some NBA people calling him out will finally make him change

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Great season if true.

No first round win.
No Sharpe.
No Chin.
No Oscar return.

Cal has pissed away our program.

 

[K_TIME]

If so that’s fine. I would like to see a guy hired that has an obvious connection to a transfer or a star HS player. Chin and O have been on staff a year. Besides maybe Livingston I can’t think of the recruiting results we expected with that change.

Uh....
Sharpe
Cason Wallace
Chris Livingston

And we go TyTy last due to Chin
Cockburn was ours for the taking due to Chin/Orlando....

These dudes are rackng up talent in short time.

 

[jacobbleedsblue]

You should have assistants for 1 of 2 reasons. 1: they get recruits. 2: they manage a particular aspect of preparation better than the coach is able to/has the capacity to. Payne was the big man guru, Robic was the game plan guru, etc. If we're not using them for #2, why the heck don't we just sell out on number one and keep an open slot for a top recruit's family member?

What does believing in Kentucky even mean? Kentucky is a thing. You don’t need to “believe” in it because it is a factual reality. There is no need to believe in things that are provable or disprovable.

I get the concerns and why people are mad, but if you don’t believe in your team why even be a fan. Why root for something if you don’t believe in it

 

[Smashcat]

Chin actually tries to Coach the players during the games not scream and yell.

In their last episode Chin was telling Brooks the exact opposite of what Cal told him to do. That can’t happen.

 

[MbergCat]

If chin leaves replace him with a offensive minded coach

Bro, we've got Brad.

 

[sluggercatfan]

Taking a job on Missouri’s staff . Anyone else heard this ?

Just hire Rex...Cal loves him anyway.

 

[UKFan32065]

Sharpe told his barber that he’s headed to the draft & Chin won’t be back either

I thought it was his best friends cousin?

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Bro, we've got Brad.

My bad i forget Kentucky is going to avg 120 PPG next year now
