Two of those guys won a National Championship.
And Tubby had a very good resume when he came to Kentucky. That’s some serious revisionist history pretending that wasn’t a good hire.

Tubby won one national championship. Calipari won one national championship. In the last twenty fire years, Kentucky has only won one national championship. Could you imagine how much shite would be thrown here it Alabama had only won one national championship in football in the last 25 years? People here would scream from the roofs what a shitty job it was.
I question why so many here still seem to believe Kentucky is THE top job. A top ten job? Sure. The top job?
Tubby was head coach for 4 years at Tulsa (52-20; .722) and 2 years at Georgia (45-19; .703). He won a national championship his first year at Kentucky and then never sniffed another. Calipari was more accomplished. He was 189-70 (.730) at UMass and 214-68 (.759) at Memphis. And like Tubby, he had early success winning his one national championship in his third year. Yet neither was able to sustain that level of success, a level demanded at Kentucky. That seems to be a theme, early success and then stagnation.

Agreed 100%
I don't think Kentucky is the top job in basketball but it is in the SEC
