This is as stupid as the Bama fan who says Tubby Smith wasn't a good hire when Kentucky picked him up.

The situation at Kentucky wasn't tenable with the way it was when he left. He had multiple first weekend outs in a row, hasn't made an Elite Eight since 2019 or a Final Four in a decade, and that's never going to meet the standard at Kentucky.

Y’all made it a standard with unrealistic expectations.

He won 64 percent his last four years. He was 1-3 in the NCAA losing to 14 and 15 seeds. He lost first round SEC tournament the last two years and hadn't won anything in the SEC ie. regular season or tournament in four seasons.

The people on here bashing Kentucky are the same ones that
a) Ran off Phil Fulmer
b) Ran off multiple Florida coaches
c) Ran off Houston Nutt
d) Ran off Malzahn
e) Ran off pick your ex Bama coach

when they had similar results. And you know what, they were right.

Cal underachieved. Maybe he will do better at Arkansas. But he wasn't cutting it the last four years.

This could be a win-win situation.

I wonder though if this is such a slam dunk for Arkansas why he was their third or fourth choice?
