J Wright recruits 3 stars and develops them, sometimes he misses tournamentWow. What do we do with Jay Wright? Throw $11mil at him? I would.
But pretty sure he already expressed he wasnt interested on live TV. I also get the sense he wants no part in NIL, transfer portal, etc. However.. Kentucky isn't Villanova. He'd have every tool at his disposal to make sure his rosters are better than 99% of everyone else.
Edit: Man how about we let Cal handle the NIL stuff for him haaha.
Wright would be a fool to act interested-string it out to get more money-IF he is really interested.Wow. What do we do with Jay Wright? Throw $11mil at him? I would.

Jay Wright has won 2 NC coaching those 3 stars SINCE 2015.J Wright recruits 3 stars and develops them, sometimes he misses tournament
Cal recruits 5 stars, they leave after 1 year, and he sometimes misses the tournament with a 9-16 record.J Wright recruits 3 stars and develops them, sometimes he misses tournament
Just that a result in one tournament should not be a consideration at all.I dont get what you're trying to say.
Not defending Cal here, Drew just isn’t the answer. He wasn’t the answer before the loss to Clemson. If it’s him, it’s gonna be more of the same with lesser recruitingAll of these so called fans afraid of change and say we should just keep Cal are pathetic. The man cannot even win a conference title, conference game, or ncaa tournament game anymore. What in the world would it take for you to feel
the need to replace him?
I think they mended fences a few years ago. Pitino publicly thanked Cal for reaching out and being kind to him. But I do agree: that would certainly motivate Cal!IF we are forced to bring Cal back for whatever reason the one thing that may motivate him to try again is tell him if he gets fired after next year then Pitino is his replacement lol. Pitino kept him motivated for years because they couldn’t stand each other.
Right now, most Kentucky fans would take that improvement over the current crap we are getting from Cal in a heartbeat.
We have made the round of 32 one time in 4 years.I would not be happy if we have had to fire Cal (warranted) and replaced him with a coach that gets us to the round of 32. Even if consistently.
If that happens then we’re definitely in Indiana territory. 100%.
If it was as good as it needs to be to wow all of you, he'd never leave there like how Izzo didnt leave MSU and Few didnt leave Gonzaga etc. Look at Cal and Pitino's post seasons before UK ...Look at his record during tournament play. It’s not good.
Yeah, and he's going to leave that job where he has ESPN in their back pocket, all the mega wealthy boosters from Conn to Boston and and administration that is all in on basketball where Barnhart is football first...... You better start knocking on doors and getting together BBN to try and get Mitch ousted first and a basketball first AD hired first... then maybe try for Hurley.I personally think if Mitch doesn't go after Danny Hurley with everything he's got, he is missing the chance of a lifetime to hire a young Rick Pitino type coach.
DH would have to tell me no at least 3 times and then I would ask him one more time if he was sure he didn't want to be the coach of the greatest basketball school of all times.
He’s not who I want but I try to consider that he’s not at a great basketball school. I can name several coaches I’d rather haveGod, no Drew. He is no better than what we have.
Absurd. Indiana has been to the second weekend three times in the last 20 years. We aren’t even close to Indiana territory.We have made the round of 32 one time in 4 years.
We are already in Indiana territory..
Hey dude, you got me! I confess. He would be nice to look at on the sidelines. I just might have trouble concentrating on the game!!🤣🤣Oh now Susan. You just have a huge crush on Jay! 😂
If he wins his second in a row at UConn it will be hard for him to leave just saying..There is only 1 person right for this Job--Dan Hurley, call him up after the tourney and make him say no
Yep that’s the Mitch way of doing it. Sounds like what they will be doing with the women’s team.My guess now is they move on from cal and they end up hiring a coach we aren’t even talking about right now
I bet you’ve been listening to the kid rock song picture a lot lately. Sejonesy put Cals picture away….sat down and cried todayHe would guarantee maybe 1 more win per tournament than Cal, since he hasn’t gotten past the round of 32 the last 3 years. Would be a terrible and boring hire.
This is so true and I said when Pitino left Cal would drop off. Also, there was a big article in SI about Cal where someone who knows them both well (either Dick Weiss or Sonny Vaccaro) said that Calipari making the Hall of Fame would change him because "he no longer has to chase the ghost (Pitino)".IF we are forced to bring Cal back for whatever reason the one thing that may motivate him to try again is tell him if he gets fired after next year then Pitino is his replacement lol. Pitino kept him motivated for years because they couldn’t stand each other.
We would be a laughing stock in the National news every week.I do as well, but I don’t think bringing cal back helps anybody anymore. The players would be put in a bad position, the fans would, and cal would coach even worse then he already does
The usual suspects are online trying to get cal back because they think we can’t live without himWe would be a laughing stock in the National news every week.
Doesn’t surprise me at all.The usual suspects are online trying to get cal back because they think we can’t live without him
I agree with Pearl. I know people don't like him for whatever reason but he is a good coach. I mean he's literally made Auburn relevant in basketball. That program was in the crapper.Assuming the big 3 say no, MY next call would go to Pearl ; I just think he would knock it out of the park here, I really do, and he can handle the pressure, IMO.
Drew? Not so much.
My God, I wasn't kidding him, I think UK fans patience would wear thin or maybe we are more patient than Villinova😂😂. He nearly got fired at VillinovaJay Wright has won 2 NC coaching those 3 stars SINCE 2015.
Cal has NEVER missed the tournament with all his 5 stars......Oh Wait....

We want better, rightCal recruits 5 stars, they leave after 1 year, and he sometimes misses the tournament with a 9-16 record.
Just stopIf it was as good as it needs to be to wow all of you, he'd never leave there like how Izzo didnt leave MSU and Few didnt leave Gonzaga etc. Look at Cal and Pitino's post seasons before UK ...
