It's pretty easy to do when you are beating up on teams made up of athletic white guys for 60+ years.

Nice job not reading the full article.

He'll most likely leave for the NBA eventually, but I highly doubt that he does it this off-season.

And when he does leave, don't expect us to become South Carolina. UConn basketball was nothing before Jim Calhoun.

The article leaves out a pretty significant part of the quote:


I mean I don't doubt that he's happy in Gainesville. But that didn't exactly come off as he wouldn't leave (I think most Florida fans know that).

If he's getting calls from NBA teams that he wasn't before I think it's safe to say he'll probably entertain some offers. But I look at it like I do Cal, in that neither one is going to leave for just any situation.

We've won the SEC three out of the past five seasons (Cal's tenure).

Just think, if Calipari were to also leave Kentucky, Auburn would have the highest profile coach in the Conference.

Wow he made it to an elite 8! Two other coaches besides Cal and Donovan have done the same thing.

If he failed after 2 years and Bama hired him at 5 million per season, I would fap.

I am talking about his total profile, including the controversial side.

John Pennington from Knoxville news doesn't have enough to write about with the current state of affairs in Hillbillyville? We own the majority of what little space there is in the vol's noggins.

Sweetheart, you don't even come close to "owning" the SEC. Are you currently the top team? Sure. But you definitely don't own it

You do realize NCAA post-season also figures into all that too right?

The two programs have been pretty much equals in Donovan's tenure no matter which metric you want to use.

And that erases anything Florida did pre-Donovan?

Gator fans do realize basketball was played in the SEC before the 00s and after the civil right's movement right?

Of course not, but that's irrelevant to the point that I was arguing against.

Translation : My agent is floating rumors to up my value but as soon as Rick Barnes takes his name out of contention for the Florida job, I am staying, with a fat raise.

Agreed but is sure pisses the Tar Heels off when you call them on it.
