Im just going to say im certainly concerned. We all knew that this crossroads would eventually come and we find out which direction he goes.

BUT...

What an unbelievably bad hire by Arkansas. They just agreed to pay a 33 million dollar buyout plus im assuming they will pay Cal in the ballpark of 8-10 mill a year. This is all for a coach who has clearly demonstrated that he has struggled to adjust to the new era of college basketball and his track record over the past 8 years at a school with ALL the amenities to win with little coaching effort is not good.

Sorry meant to add. They also just gave one of the greatest blue bloods in college basketball a complete get out of jail free card for making a horrible contract agreement with Cal. Kentucky was in a bit of shambles trying to figure out when it economically made sense to can Cal and they decided they would weather 1 or 2 more years. Just such a bad all around move by Arkansas. If they were going to spend this much money, they had so many better options.

No buyout if he leaves in his own accord. It was only that large to fire him.

Cal doesn’t have a buyout from another school, just from UK. The $33 million was only if they fired him.
