He's really only been underwhelming since the season after the canceled COVID tournament. That's four years of missed tourney, first round, second round, first round.
He's obviously on the downhill slide. The only question for me is, is he burnt out at Kentucky, or is he more or less done and we're his retirement gig that he halfasses, ala Danny Ford?
Edit: He's also 65. If we get five good years out of him and a couple of pretty deep runs, I'd say that was a successful outing. We just keep squandering momentum. If we're not going to get Chris Beard, Will Wade, etc, then we need to get short term hires like this and try again in a few years. A hire like this at least gives you hope. A hire like Chris Jans, Jerome Tang… Sam Pittman… it's just hard to care.
