I'm hoping it doesn't work out, since he can't possibly go back to UK after this, and then they'll need to figure out that buyout.
UK Coach Search Updates
- Thread starter Tammany Hall
- Start date
UK will say breach of contract..etc. Cal might just get some cash out of this. Longer this goes the worse it looks for both.
Dan Hurley: 'No way' UConn coach would entertain Kentucky job
UConn AD David Benedict said the program would do "everything we can to remain in position to win championships."theathletic.com
Saban: 'I'm not going to be the Alabama coach'
Nick Saban again adamantly denied that he's headed back to the college ranks, denouncing rumors that he is interested in the Alabama coaching job.
Nobody has said no. Mitch hasn't reached out to anyone because Cal hasn't officially left UK. All that's been put out are empty statements that have been put out before.
Trilly Donovan said UK is ready to put OVER 10 million a year for Hurley. Boosters and donors have opened their pocket books.
''I don't give a shit about North Carolina''-Roy Williams
''I won't be alabama's coach''-Nick Saban
Cal signed a 5 year deal with Memphis before he left for UK.
Not just a christian but a fanatical one he claims. Whatever that means.
Read the whole post. You fu$&s misunderstand and go all apeshit about nothing. He’s a faith healer type. Prays in tongues, faints…etc. he’s not your typical Christian. Some people can handle it. Most can’t.
Blah blah blah. It’s all about the money. A big enough bag has a lot of sway. No pun intended.
lol Damn them to hell? Yikes, you sound psychotic. You have to believe in hell to damn someone to this mythical place, therefore, only those who believe *cough cough* are the ones doing such damning.
So for example, you agree if someone were to deny hiring or to an even lesser degree, make a cake for someone because of their personal beliefs, that is wrong?
The fact that Cal hasn’t left yet is that this is a power play on his part and he is trying to shift the balance back to his favor. UK and Cal are beginning to look like the couple that doesn’t get divorced because they can’t (won’t) afford to do so.
Looks like he was forced to walk when they called his bluff.
Apparently, he spoke with Ohio State in February. He’s getting the out he “wanted”
Pat Forde just said on The Bob Valvano show that he was told by an industry Insider not to rule out Brad Stevens.
Sources are saying Spoelstra, Pop, and Kerr are possibilities too.
Hell I heard Phil Jackson and Pat Riley are looking at horse farms in the Lex area tomorrow.
This from my buddy who lives in Lexington and claims to be in on talks (I'm not saying he is... but he sure thinks he is):
They want Hurley, but understand UConn is about to give him a huge new deal.
Chris Beard, Sean Miller and Mick Cronin are in the mix. Beard's the top next choice right now, assuming Hurley remains a no. All are the right age and have good profiles.
Sampson and Pearl mid to late 60's and are selling a "coach in waiting" program with their sons. Not attractive. Sr. Pitino is selling his son hard, but the body of work just isn't there.
There's some push for Pope... he could be a fall back.

I just overheard at a Denny's this morning that UK is going to experiment with co-coaches; Stevens & Donovan. I think they got the idea from IU since it worked so well here.
False. Hurley is the play, then Oats. Fallback is Scott Drew.
I’m hearing Mick Cronin is in Lexington now. Level 2 source
Hiring a Christian is not the same thing as asking someone to do something against their conscience. Can you force a lesbian baker to make a cake for muslims who hate lesbians? No. But when you are talking about hiring somebody for a job it is far different. Religious beliefs should not be a determining factor.
Please STFU ....
