Tyler Ulis looks like he hates his life

[chasingwildcat]

Yeah I agree , Even with Cal picking him up after the accident ( who knows the details ??) he had to know Cal was a terrible coach . There should be no denying this , he should have jumped off board instead of volunteering his head for the chopping block . Elections have consequences I've heard before , well he elected to go to Arky with a washed up coach .

Ulis should be grateful and loval for Cal who is saving his life, I understand it

Keep in mind that Cal might have been the only offer he had. I have no ill will toward him for taking the job. I do feel sorry for him because he had to know it would be a disaster, but what else was he supposed to do? I'm sure he hopes to get a couple years of experience and then find a better landing spot.

What's the whole story? Cal saving his life ?

Re Ullis......

Hitched his wagon to the wrong horse.

You buy your ticket, you take your chances.

Pick your favorite one.

He should be well connected in the NCAA circles , even a low level D1 coach makes a good living . Or go build a resume at a D2 or something , at some point go be your own man . I'm sure he made some serious coin as an assistant to Cal at UK and Ark .

It very likely was the ONLY horse available to him to hitch to.

Can't blame Ulis for taking a job on Cal's staff. Some people wait half their lives to get a position like that. Hopefully he manages to not take on some of Cal's bad habits.

I have no sympathy for Ulis. As with the players who followed Cal, he is getting just what he deserves. Ulis certainly knew that Cal can't coach. I have no idea why he wanted to be a member of that sad bunch of assistant coaches. It would be understandable if he was doing it at Kentucky, but certainly not at Arkansas.

I mean, what other choice did he have ? I seriously doubt he had any other opportunities.
