Wade isn't going to Kentucky. He'll be at Ole Miss by end of the week

I’ll laugh when oats declines and stays at Gump land.

Alabama can be just as good as Kentucky in BB.

And Jeff Goodman of Stadium says he’s heard the only call will be to Scott Drew.

In other words nobody really knows nothing.

I mentioned Billy Donovan the day UK got bounced. That would be a home run hire. God no…

Does Arkansas now pay Cal’s buyout? That would be enough to pay Oats buyout no?

No one seriously believes this.

No one.

Kentucky is NCAA basketball.

If Kentucky wants your coach - they will take him. Just like the old saying, “Never leave your girlfriend alone with Motley Crue…because they will..”.

Only crazy people think that Alabama or Auburn could be as good of a basketball job as Kentucky. You can have success at both, but Kentucky is a much better job. Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean any given coach would want the pressure at Kentucky

Exactly.

Funny part about this is what if Pearl’s first round loss is what kept his name out of the search and Oats final four run was what made him the man of the hour?

How bittersweet is that for both programs if Oats took the KY job?

Kentucky is a better job because the recruiting is easier, they also have one of the best stadiums in the country. Walk into almost every recruits home and he wants to play at Kentucky to some degree, the same can’t be said for elsewhere

There will be only one person the Board will go after, and everyone knows who it is.
