Eh, that’s what is said nearly everytime about every good coach and 90% of the time they bolt. Maybe not the next year, but they do eventually.

Calipari is king in Memphis. They’ll pay him more. He’s already recruiting #1 classes there. He built it, it’s his baby. Yada yada. I grew up hearing that from many people.

The only coach I can really remember that stayed at a small place when he had big, big options was Few. In the modern era anyway. cost of living doesn’t matter when you’re gonna be worth 100 million. You can live anywhere you want.
Kind of the point though. If he's happy there, why leave? He's literally got nothing left to prove unless they choke this.

IU was lucky against Iowa. Really lucky against Penn State. They're just a team of destiny I guess.

To me, it’s not about happy, and I think this is the point so many miss about these guys. These guys don’t get off on happy. You and me? Sure, we’re not loaded and it sounds great to us. These guys already have money and they’re already happy because they’re rich. Their family is taken care if for generations.

What they want is immortality. To get to that level you’re half *** psychopathic / a megalomaniac. These guys are vicious. Ultimate competitors. Happy to them is boring.

They want to eat, and eat, and eat.

All Cignetti is probably thinking about now? Can I do this in the NFL? Winners never stop. Never satisfied.

I’m not saying it’s a given, some coaches do stay put. But in his case not many do. I don’t think he’ll turn down the NFL over and over year to year and he’s not getting younger. He’s already shown his value in college and Indiana isn’t a job that you can’t afford to lose. I don’t see him staying unless his family wants nothing to do with the NFL and he’s too old in his mind. Neither I think are true.

And we don’t know where his dream university is or where his ultimate goals are. I doubt it’s Indiana unless for his family wanting to not go.

Boy look on X. All you “go lousville, go Indiana, go SEC!” Fans are about to see how bad of an idea that is.

Indiana fans are already telling UK basketball doesn’t matter and they’re a football school and we wish we were. Get on there and get you some.
