NBA assistant coach seems like a great job tbh. Not sure I would leave that for a college gig.
I like how Blackhaus still gets blamed for the legendary Vandy debacle because everyone blacked out and forgot about Huber's jars of moonshine.
Blackhaus is freaking blackberry schnapps. Huber had rocket fuel in a mason jar. I had plenty of both and I managed to only catch myself on fire 2 or 3 times on those portable heaters.
Some of you need to know your limits. You'll never catch me getting so drunk that I pass out or play drums with a spatula or puke behind a Wendy's the next day on the way home from a game. Grow up.
I'd do it all again right now.

Some of these people didn’t grow up on randomly flavored schnapps in the Party Source parking lot and it shows.
Louisville probably isnt in a place to pay a buyout for a new coach while paying a current coach's settlement. I would imagine anyone they get wont have contract ties somewhere else.
Bring Lon Kruger out of retirement for the transition/cleanup.
Honestly, I'm kind of sick of UL being such a laughingstock **** show. Schadenfreude only goes so far. I wish they could hire Pearl, as he would destroy there and the rivalry would be so much more fun. Won't happen though, for reasons mentioned here. But Auburn > UL is way off, and not one of those reasons. Just a terrible take.
UL football is a different story. They're in a damn good spot, with respect to the rivalry. Good enough to have a nice record, generate a little hype and be favored in the Governor's Cup, only to get flattened. I guess that could end up getting old, but I'm pretty good with it for now.
So TyTy is pretty important. Offense has looked like absolute human dog **** since the ankle injury.
Sharpe not playing last night makes me even more sure that he's off to the league after this season. Cal doesn't want to hurt his draft stock by sending him out unprepared, which is completely defensible. But a mid January game in 2022 would have no effect on his 2023 draft stock, and getting more playing time earlier would only be more likely to improve it. Seeing all of these ankles crumble probably isn't making him want to stick around.

I think it’s foolish to think they don’t have the money. Most power 5 athletic departments PRINT money not to mention the vast majority of coaches’ salaries are paid from their endorsements with media partners. If they have a legit shot at someone really good they will find a way to pay him.
I think the worry of future sanctions is being over blown too. The NCAA hasn't hammered anyone in years, and has essentially admitted that they don't want penalties that affect athletes who weren't around for the indiscretions. They might lose some scholarships and pay some fines, but I'd be surprised if they got any post season bans.

I mean, the NCAA did in fact vacate Louisville's 2013 championship.
I hope they hire someone who's terrible.
Just tell L1C4 Mark Pope is actually Beau Zach Smith and its a done deal.
Counterpoint: It's Louisville. I don't know if you have followed what goes for normal over there but it's been an "Always Sunny... " episode for the last 10 or so years.
Last night was pretty awful for 15 minutes but it was comical how few f**ks DJ Jeffries seemed to give. What a waste. The poster child for Penny Hardaway's Memphis State.
Forbes is the guy you call on that list. He's doing a really good job turning around Wake in his 2nd season there, and he rocked at ETSU prior.
Great seats and great time at the game last night. Disappointed Goose was absent from his seats. Would've been awesome to watch a game with him sitting there.
Watching him in person, Oscar does have that moment about once or twice per game where he is so concerned with straying on his man and doesn't know where the ball is. He stood under the basket guarding his man last night with his back to Molinari driving for a layup. Never saw him coming. But he's still amazing to watch. Just a rebounding machine and a smooth mid-range jumper. Never stops working. NPOY.
Mintz and Oscar talking to each other during a timeout outside the huddle to clean up their pick and roll. Mintz might struggle at times, but his leadership qualities with this team are invaluable.
The real shame in the HOF voting is that Ortiz goes in alone. Bonds should be in. Clemens, too. Rolen seems like he's got momentum to get there in the next 2 years. I HATE that the writers become the news instead of just reporting it. Buster Olney was talking about this last night and why he gave up his vote. You have self-righteous baseball writers making the call on a life-fulfilling dream of all these players. Take it away from them. John Fay and C Trent Rosencrantz can go F themselves or give back all the salary they made from 1996-2003 covering the Roids Era.

Can we talk about how Oscar is still projected as a 2nd-round pick, at best? I haven't even seen him as a rising player/one to watch, let alone being taken anywhere near the 1st round. If lol, 
, and ROTFLMAO had a baby, it would be that take.
I realize the NBA isn't really looking at Centers they way they used to, but Bam Adebayo has turned into one of the best big men in the league basically by....
- hitting 12-15 foot jumpers
- rebounding
- playing defense
- pick-and-roll
Whoever drafts Oscar simply will not be disappointed. You telling me Oscar can't be as good as him?

Can't remember which one was saying Oscar's increased offensive game has him trending to late first. Maybe Vecenie?
I could sit and talk about that kid for hours. He just makes me happy.

The difference is Bam was a freshman with upside. Oscar is 22 years, he’s past his upside peak.
If Oscar can get to the point where he can hit 3's at a 33 percent clip, I could very easily see him having a Paul Millsap-type career. Millsap was older when he entered the league, built his rep on rebounding and D, and added a small bit of outside shooting along the way.
“he has a little African in him. Not in a bad way, but he’s like a guy who would have a nice store out front but sell you counterfeit stuff out of the back.”
I hope someone is working 24/7 on a way to get Oscar eligible for NIL money because he would absolutely come back another year if he could be a multi-millionaire.
He's also leaving out Bam's freakish athleticism, he can guard all 5 position, and initiate offense.

Trust me when I tell you that this is a minority opinion.
Bam may be a bad comparison but Montrezl Harrell isn't. If he can have a long NBA career, then so can Oscar.
Oh, I agree. I think he can play for a long time just because he knows his value and is committed to exploiting it which is pretty rare. He's also great because you're not going to have issues with him.

Wasn't Cal quoted last week stating that he fully expected Sharpe to play NEXT season? I know it really doesn't guarantee anything, but it definitely is out of character for Cal to comment during the season about any player who is eligible for the draft. It's always the vague "We'll talk about it with him and his family at the end of the season and I'll support him, blah, blah, blah.....".
So, apparently now the notion is that Mack may never want to coach again? I know UofL is ******, but it's comical that the stench of that place caused an “up and coming” coach to just tap out on the entire profession.
If Oscar were a freshman, he'd be the run away choice for NPOY. There's something about the attachment of untapped potential that adds to the mystique of a freshman who is killing it, but it doesn't mean that those guys are more productive in their 1 season of college basketball vs an established excellent collegiate player. It's why there is no reason to feel like this program needs to rely solely on elite high school recruits now that Cal can bring in transfers so easily.

Really hard to be an NBA big now without being able to make an outside shot or protect the rim (ideally both). As much as I love the guy, Oscar can’t be trusted to do either. His defensive awareness has significant lapses, he still struggles to defend the pick and roll, and he is an average passer out of the post. These are crucial skills for an NBA big. Not to say he won’t help a team at all, but I don’t think he projects as a starter.
I agree Harrell is a good comparison and if you watched what Denver did to him in the 2020 playoffs, it becomes easier to understand why the NBA might not be salivating over him.

* LOL at not wanting Louisville to be a laughing stock... F that. I'm still pissed that they bailed on the game this year. They deserve every GD ounce of this ****.
* Oscar just isn't that athletic and is an average defender. Way above average ball handler for his size and has decent range. Maybe he sticks on that and rebounding but I just don't see it.
* Sharpe isn't playing here next season. You all need to go ahead and get that out of your heads. Maybe Cal is trying to buy time to convince him otherwise, but he's a top 10 pick. He needs to be playing RIGHT NOW, because this is all you are getting.

This is the only perspective that any self respecting UK fan can have
Respectfully go f*** yourself.
If Chris Mack just quits coaching and goes to grad school or something, it will be incredible -- especially if they hire Scotty Davenport.
You can just feel the Louisville coming off of GYERO posters who live in that river city when discussing that stupid program. The program is trash, that trash heap is burning, and it is hilarious. Stop with the Stockholm Syndrome.
Breyer retiring. Another chance to see the President and the Senate engage in reasoned, civil debate.
Chuck Hayes played in the league for fifty billion years. Oscar will be fine. There are garbage *** players all over the league. Oscar does one thing better than anybody, and that's enough to get paid for a long time.
Bingo. Bam is a crazy athlete and Harrell is not far behind. Not good comparisons
Biden pledged to nominate a black woman on the campaign. I bet it will be Ketanji Brown Jackson, who was on D.C. District and is now on the D.C. Circuit.
I had a False Claims Act case relating to a federal procurement before her in 2013 when she was on D.C. District. She wrote an emphatic 58-page opinion denying a MTD that completely misstated the law.
Par for the course, I guess...
He definitely has limitations and may never be more than a role player off the bench. All I'm saying is that his work ethic and determination could result in a long NBA career. He has shown improvement since his time at West Virginia. Why can't he continue to improve?
