Polacek knew and tried to tell our coach

if he goes into a shell, its over for him.
That was the beginning of the end for Gillespie.
He has to be accessible.
I don't understand why coaches do this, fans will tolerate more if they just own the mistake - instead of like Calipari sending an assistant coach to the press conference after a loss.

still not good with KSR knowing this and not blasting it all over social media.
And Mike Pratt and others had to go around Mitch to get Cal so he doesn't get credit for that one.
Again, he only had one source. If you don’t have at least two, you’re just spreading an unconfirmed rumor
I hope they ignore your advice or we will be worse off than we are now.
People often come to visit to see if they want to sign. That doesn't mean we have to be clueless suckers that can't read the room.
I distinctly remember many on here stating that the boosters pulled rank on Barnhart to hire Calipari more or less. So im not sure he would have hired Cal without his wrist being bent. It's a good thing Joel Osteen doesn't coach basketball or he would have been handpicked by Barnhart. In place of Cal.
Your source is “many on here?” Solid.
And bringing religion into this kind of shows your bigotry. Congrats.
He’s a little right. Mike Pratt made it happen. With a small contingent. I don’t care what Eli said, or what Mitch said. He wouldn’t have hired Cal without being told to move over and let it happen. Heard it right from Mikes mouth.
Why are you such a shill?
Buddy, you sure are inferring a lot. I'm a Christian. Matter of fact, I watch Osteen often. The distinction is if I'm running a university's at
hletic department, i have enough sense to hire the best person for the job. And not blacklist people because they don't meet MY moral standards. That's totally unprofessional and the definition of bigotry.
As far as the rest, multiple people on here made that claim back when he was hired. I'd might not pay attention to it if just one was claiming it. And considering Barnharts clear distain for certain coaches, it seems to track.
Don't care if you like it or not, Barnhart sycophant.
I've heard it said before that if you don't know who the mark is at the poker table, then you're the mark. We have an actual Mark and he is the literal mark at every poker table he sits down at. This is 100% on Barnhart. Not doing his due diligence again, just like he didn't do his due diligence on Billy Gillespie.
He didn't know crap. Otherwise he would have said so beforehand.
Since you're on your third account, what advice would you give them? I will tell you that respectfully letting someone know that if they have signed elsewhere you're no interested is just plain good business sense.
We let Cal overstay his welcome by about 7 years and then during that time instead of finding the next coach who could actually win some games we panicked at the last minute and hired the only guy who was available and has never won anything.
I mean this isn’t the Wall Street Journal. It’s a paid service for “supposed” insider access. He should have published it on the premium board.
Without a doubt. And even worse, he allegedly wanted to ‘warn’ our coach about info that is shaky enough not to post or even hint at? Yeah right.
Also to then post about it AFTER the fact like some kind of honorable insider just to make us look bad?
Seems confirmation bias is playing a huge role here. Let’s ignore the statements we don’t like and give great credibility to those we do. Done. Great way to get at the truth.
A professed Christian cannot be a bigot? Watching Joel Osteen gives you more credibility?
As a Christian, you don’t care about the moral character of those people you would hire because that would be unprofessional? Caring about moral character is the definition of bigotry?
LOLI don’t know who Barnhart disdains and I am confident you don’t, either. And, as far as sources, a lot of people on here parrot dumb a$$ things. That does not make them more credible.
That’s crazy, so the guy preaching loyalty to Kentucky is starting to hide and ban the people who make it up? I bet the boosters are super happy about that! After missing Stokes it’s no wonder we are filling it out with bench guys. They probably won’t fund him getting anyone who will make a difference now.
I bet they did know. Polacheck probably can’t come out and say it because he needs access to the team. Someone knew at Kansas and I bet it came out, they took Stokes visit way after he signed. That tells me he probably did not listen to anyone like he has been. It’s been said before on here. Makes sense. Another thing is Jacob couldn’t make it public and burn his source, he may never get information again. He could privately let it be known that Kentucky was getting played, while at the same time not publicly burning his bridge. It’s easy now as the information is known to all because he’s committed.

That’s probably why the guys who left were kinda saying what a clown show it was. They were kinda making it obvious. I wouldn’t be surprised later on that as much as Jasper’s uncle seems like a dbag right now that there is something to the reason he’s saying it.
Sir, the lie relies on you not thinking critically or asking questions. Just blindly accept it as fact and fit with the group.
He hired two, Cal was a great hire no matter how ya slice it but he didn’t really make that happen. Others stepped in to make sure he didn’t screw that up.
I think there’s something off about that whole deal. From screenshots I’ve seen KSBoard seems to have rumors posted on there all the time, including by KSR staff. My guess is he anticipated a backlash to putting that info out and opted to save himself the trouble. Then probably didn’t anticipate how much backlash he would get for reporting that after the Kansas commitment was made public.
No, he did not get it confirmed until the day of commitment per himself. Yes he tried to pass it on as a possibility but not confirmed.
LOL. Again, this reminds me of the time Matt Jones said multiple SEC coaches messaged him and told him and told him he should be a little worried about JMI. If KSR fails Matt Jones will be able to be able to sell you air.
