Everyone would take an Elite 8 run over a regular season conference championship or conference tournament championship. Doesn’t mean you ignore the regular season though in evaluating your coach’s performance.
Cal also hasn’t won a SEC Regular Season Championship since 2020 either.
I think he’ll be fine at Arkansas but it’s being a bit naive to suggest Kentucky fans only wanted him out because he didn’t make a Final Four every year.

Agreed - not really a fair narrative. Cal has won nothing at Kentucky in the last 4 years. Quite literally nothing.
Doesn't mean he isn't a good hire elsewhere, but 0 SEC Titles, 0 SECT Titles and 0 second weekends in the NCAAT (led alone a Final Four) is a legitimate reason for angst at a place like Kentucky. And he was going to get another year in 2024-2025, too.
