2023/2024 NCAA Season

Told ya lol. Calipari abandoning ship. The Kentucky fan base is just too much to deal with

Seems like he knew Kentucky was close to moving on. He survived this off season meeting, but knew he probably wouldn't have made it through another if they didn't make a deep tournament run.

Kentucky might be about to find out the grass isn't always greener if they can't get one of their main targets.

Their fans seem to want Hurley Wright Donovan Drew or Oats.

Calipari going to be on a mission to beat UK at Arkansas.

I'm sure some Kentucky fans will claim that Kentucky had moved on from calipari and advised him to interview for new coaching positions to avoid a public firing

I'm sure some will and we will probably never know the truth....but based on how everything was going, a change may be best for all involved.

[TDub]

such a step down from UK....weird deal.

[ousdahl]

In terms of some college hoops bigger picture, yea.

In terms of a massively egotistical coach struggling at a program with unrealistically yuge expectations, it kinda checks out.

Either way, Rupp Rafters continues to be a special kind of comedy

Calipari going to be on a mission to beat UK at Arkansas.

ok, but he's not getting multiple top-5 talent every year to come to fayetteville unless he starts winning more than he has been doing. and he's been relying on such talent for wins he's gotten, so not sure how he's gonna solve that catch-22.

[KUTradition]

don’t forget about all that walmart money, too

[MICHHAWK]

cal will do fine.

and no. i do not want one of our best coaches to go to the sec. i'm a BIG 12 fan. not an sec fan.

if drew wants to go, that tells me he’s not much of a Big12 fan…why would you want him here?

[hoopla]

you guys are right, i'm still living pre-NIL, and if you're 17 looking for best path to NBA, Cal has that track record.

one question tho: has Arkansas just not offered the money until now, but bringing Cal in signals their intention to invest more? i mean, its not as if the tyson and wal-mart money is new, its not crypto, e.g.

[DeletedUser]

I think Cal called them because the UK fans are calling for his head and he wasn't going to make it more than another season or two there anyway. I can't imagine Arkansas thought he was a realistic option enough to call him unsolicited.

[DeletedUser]

Also, Arkansas is Nike....so I think some of those Nike recruits will follow him, and continue in the future, to Arkansas.


I sort of hope UK gets Jay Wright and he hates it after 16 months and retires again and then they're really left holding their dicks.

[pdub]

I think Purdue is better than we are but watching them today they certainly aren’t a put fear in the hearts of men team.

I think UConn is that team.

7 weeks ago.

The last two repeat champs both lost to Kansas during the regular season their second championship year

[DeletedUser]

And hopefully next year goes how the year after Florida's went.

Banner worthy?

KU also beat Kentucky those seasons.
All that and $9.78 (plus tax) gets us a slice of pizza and a large coke at Sbarro.

[MICHHAWK]

uconn just made it look easy.

i don't know who they got coming back next year. who is out of eligibility. who they got coming in. who will declare for the draft.

they made it look easy.

[pdub]

They are going to loose a ton.
Likely their starting five and their best sixth man.

One thing Jay Wright is NOT is stupid.
