Not saying he takes the job...

BUT if he bolts, Oats would get a call. Just saying.

There are literally only 3 jobs Cal could take that aren't a step down, and they are only lateral at best: Duke, Kansas, and UNC.

Hell, the Texas basketball job isn't even the top coaching job on their own campus.

I stated I doubt he would take the job. But word is Texas is going to throw a bunch of money to get him.

Cal will make us sweat, but, if he leaves, Oats is the main guy Kentucky will go after.

Wouldn't blame him if he left Bama for Kentucky. Never thought I would see the day Kentucky basketball wanted a Bama basketball head coach.

I don't think it is a slam dunk he would take the job. Much less pressure at Bama. If he can consistently make the tournament at Bama we are happy.

Don't worry. Texas has no more chance of getting Calipari than they did of getting Saban. In fact, the chances are probably far, far less than Saban. Their fanbase has a hugely inflated perception of their worth.

I dont think Bama fans are disillusioned with the fact it will be hard for them to hold onto Oats

They need to pull and LSU and get dirt on Oats that tethers him to Bama

Why would Cal go to Texas? He seems like the opposite of Nate Oats in that he would never settle for being the 2nd biggest name on campus. I can't picture Cal at a non-basketball 1st school unless there was a scandal that forced him to that level. Cal loves the spotlight and his whole recruiting approach is about convincing players to join his NBA level media parade.

Texas will hire a Scott Drew disciple.

Why would Calipari take a step down? Every job he has held has a better basketball program and history than t.u.

For Texas? Calipari might as well buy a billboard saying, "How the mighty have fallen."

This thread is dumb


OP should have said Texas will come for Oats, which they likely will. But I think Oats is too smart to fall into that trap

But seriously, if he leaves for UK, I won't even be mad. If you guys ever get a better football coach than us, you can bet your sweet arse we would snag him in a heartbeat.

It will only be hard to hold on to Oats only if a blue blood comes calling. And you can count the college basketball blue bloods on one hand.
