Calipari to Michigan is the current rumor
- Thread starter DKersey
- Start date
Pitino faxed his resignation to Boston from his Miami Beach home, ESPN News interviewed him that same day, you could see the beach & ocean through the glass doors. The people I know in Lexington told me that UK boosters were down there golfing with him, he was trying to find out through them how much interest Tubby had in the Atlanta Hawks job. At that time Tubby had been rumored to be interested. The Michigan job was there for Pitino to take but he took the wrong one in UofL, he's regretted that decision ever since I'm sure.
Interim is the key word there. So it isn't permanent, at least not yet.
With the amount of money they're willing to spend on revenue sports, they should be able to make a big hire.
I haven't seen the Twitter chatter about violations, but what can you even get in trouble for anymore?
No one is touching the top half of the big 10 in money spent on revenue sports. No one. That's been very clear for a few years.
Iām taking the interim tag for Boynton to mean that they arenāt committing to a long term deal with him that runs past this year, not that theyāre leaving the door open to replace him next week if possible.
The actual interesting part of this will be how aggressive they are in moving on from him after the season. His track record as a head coach is not impressive, but this Michigan team should be significantly better than anything he ever had at Oklahoma State on paper. If they have a good year, will they give him a chance to take the permanent job at the risk that it turns into another Rodney Terry at Texas situation, or are they planning on having an open search pretty much regardless of how the season goes? They would definitely be an attractive job if they open it up.

Who said this is about what you think?
Well, that would definitely be keeping with the Michigan tradition
I think Cal would crawl to Ann Arbor if he could but knows what it would do to his reputation if he did. He's a lot of things but he's not stupid.
Posted on X. That was debunked, I believe. Is there any legit news source suggesting that?
