Sounds like Drew is getting cold feet and looking for any reason to stay
His family don’t want to live in Lexington. And no matter how good he does, he will be just another UK coach that’s similar to Tubby Smith. But if he don’t make the final 4 every year, the fans will run him out of town like they did Cal.

Cal just pissed a ton of the the wrong people off at UK. He’s all about himself, not the school

I thought he hasn’t done shite in years and they wanted to dump him?

Cal has been on a downslope for years at UK. He managed to alienate some very rich people with his arrogant ways while losing. Kind of like Fisher at A&M …

Yep. Colorado Ag is spot on.

Cal is a lot more respected than jimbo.
Kentucky wanted cal gone and he left , I don’t see him being selfish. He also could’ve tanked their program and got 33 mil so idk selfish really is …

The similarities are there no matter how much Arkansas fans want to deny them. When a fanbase is cheering their coach left, there are reasons for it.

He had tanked us for a few years now. Barnhart pushed him to change knowing that his ego wouldn't handle that, and got him to leave while keeping the stupid buyout. I give him credit for getting what UK needed without it costing us more money,.

So he intentionally tanked your program? Thus, he isn't "past his prime" and still has plenty in the tank to elevate Arkansas and make a run. Got it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Your coach left and then you hired the guy Kentucky fans have wanted to get rid of for at least 2 years.
Absolutely stole him from UK for $2 Mil/yr less! Was Cal’s agent named Mr Haney?

cals attorney is an arkansas grad and his representation. Like Cal said, its weird how everything lined up and thats why he took it. Im happy for the guy and the more I learn about him the more I like him. Im happy he had his success at Kentucky and other places and he wants to come here.

Kentucky fans sure are trying to rewrite history over the last week.
Barnhart used a jedi mind trick to fire Cal and make it look like Arkansas hired him away, thus keeping the buyout money. Then he saved more money by getting all of the top coaches to pass on the open job.
Next they'll push out their best players so avoid paying them NIL money.
