Kentucky will be just fine. Go get Hurley you have an extra $35M to offer him 10M a year. UConn will shite the bed. Good Luck & WPS

Yea we can help with that, we've been to 2 elite 8's, 3 sweet 16's in the last five.

Certainly a better 5 year run than UK.

I do think Cal wants to prove something before retiring. Win/win for both.

Women’s championship last night, men’s championship tonight, and Cal is on the front page of ESPN.

UK chased him away b/c he couldn't win in the tournament. I get it, you want a national title, that's what you do as a basketball school, but things have the possibility to get real real bad now.

It seems Lucifer has returned to the land of demons.


I wonder how long it takes people to forget these gems.

We want to play national rivalries, not regional ones (reason he canceled the Memphis Pig series)

Cal to Pig fans, do not boo my team (Little Rock Sub-regional)

Does Cal do an Altman Call the Hogs, looking like a POW, or does he embrace it like most have?

I don’t care who says what, this is a homerun for Arky. They’re hungry and (if Cal has ANY baw in him) he should have a chip on his shoulder with something to prove.

The real question UK fans should be concerned about - how many of his players and recruits are in the back of that van?

That was not Cal. That was Rick Barnes when he was at Texas.

I would expect all of them except Perry, but who really knows.

That won't happen. We did that once. The Board will throw whatever they want at their top 2 candidates and one of them will come.

I think there's an argument that your past coach was better than your incoming one, for sure.

This very well could be. Everyone needs a change of scenery sometimes. It will certainly add a new element to the UA/UK rivalry. Gonna be some fun match ups on the way.

I'm ecstatic. Arkansas did us a favor. Looking forward to the next chapter in Kentucky basketball.
