I suppose they are trying to win. I just don’t take a coaches record serious in the nba when half the teams are tanking.
Are the bulls a serious organization at the moment? Is he really all of a sudden a bad coach? I guess he forgot how to coach this February.

If they aren’t tanking … maybe he is because he sees the UK opening in the near future 😉

We should have must paid to lure him away and given him the keys. I mean at least should have waited to see and back channeled. Could have probably been done.

So now let Barnes retire and watch Tennessee throw cash around. Somebody will. But it won’t be Kentucky, we’re good with our 55 year old 63% guy.

The Bulls were & still are in rebuilding mode, that's one of the reasons he still has a job, the owners like him but at some point, if he doesn't start winning like he did at OKC, yeah, he'll be gone. I'd take him at Kentucky right now, he's whom I wanted all along, not Hurley & not Oats.

All the talk has been they’re tanking so this must be some fan or someone who doesn’t know. Maybe not.

They literally traded their whole team. Them losing isn't shocking they're trying to tank(even though they got in that race way too late). They should've fired him about 2-3 seasons ago if anything.

The same people that want Donovan here are the same ones that want Oats, Pearl, Pitino, Beard, etc. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

These people can’t be taken seriously, they have a very low IQ and only know what the tv analyst tell them. Or what Matt Jones, Trilly and whatever other media goofball they have decided to worship for that week tell them.. 😂

There’s a reason none of them are here and none of them have been offered. If you don’t know why, you’re probably not very smart.

Making fun of anyone’s intelligence using smiling faces like a teenage girl. Interesting.

2006 - The same people that want Donovan here are the same ones that wanted Caliapri in 2006, etc. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

There’s a reason Calipari isn’t here and havent been offered. If you don’t know why, you’re probably not very smart.

Now read it again ^. Sounds like it did when it was Gillispie over Calipari. History really does just repeat itself.

Yeah there's a reason. We have Barnhart at the helm. You can post all the emojiis you like. But not seeing the need for a better coach, makes me question either your IQ, or where Barnhart placed your pullstring.

Just out of curiosity, what do you do for a living? I have a theory about anonymous people online talking about people’s intelligence. And remember, unless your name is UK4Life it’s anonymous, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about posting it.

I’m a RN and my wife owns her own hair salon, hopefully I fit into whatever box that you’re trying to put me in. 🤣

0-11 in February


So, a guy with a Bulls fan blog says he’s on a hot seat? Donovan signed an extension last summer and the Bulls are rebuilding. Even if Donovan were fired, he would be coaching for another NBA team next season.

He might be 0-11, but I'm sure they've had a couple of injuries and the refs hate them. Just needs a few more years to prove he is the man for the job.

Some UK fans: We are becoming Indiana

Also some UK fans: We should hire a coach who hasn’t coached in college for 10 years, but won two titles 19 and 20 years ago respectively!

Self awareness: Zero
Eh, I get the game has changed. But self awareness tells me risking a guy who’s won 2 national championships, recruited NBA studs, coached NBA studs, and is going down as one of the greatest college coach’s of all time

Vs.


55 year old without a tournament win in 10 years, also with a 63% winning percentage all time, also who’s never coached elite players at all, and who also has never recruited elite players and to this day is a really bad recruiter……

Which one does self awareness tell you a blue blood needs to be taking a shot on? If we put a blind resume out, there’s not a serious program with title aspirations who’s taking the bottom section there. I really don’t know what else could convince anyone. Or we have vastly different definitions of self awareness

He has already turned us down twice and refused to talk to us until after the nba season ended the 3rd time . I don’t why anyone would think he wants to coach here .
