Mullins back to UCONN
- Thread starter SkyPrince
- Start date
Then give him enough to give her half and still have more than he ever imagined.
We literally hired John Vincent Calipari from New Jersey. We hired Rick Pitino. What in the hell are you talking about.
Winning is all that matters.
Agree. I've been a Hines fan since his senior year in high school. BUT. . . he's still pretty raw in many respects skill wise. Plus with that projected lineup listed by the OP you're putting a huge load on him to carry the team in regard to rebounding and interior defense. I think Hines would have been great for UK backing up Moreno and playing some old school bully ball PF.
You don’t live in reality dude .
Could have sworn Calipari was at Memphis but what do I know,lol
Hope you’re correct as (like others have emoted) I can’t stand Hurley and/or UConn.
Umm …we hired Cal from Memphis, and like a full decade after he was fired by NJ.
So …what the hell are you talking about?
Don’t act stupid. You even called them Yankees which meant where they were from originally. You made a dumbass post and got called out. Just accept it.
He clearly meant where they were from. I know you all ain’t this dumb. Even for your standards. Everybody knows he coached at Memphis. That’s not at all what that dumbass was talking about
You got me mixed up with someone else dude. Show me where I said that You can’t.
Then you’re STILL wrong. Cal is not from New Jersey. The only time he ever lived in that state was his very brief stint as a failed NBA coach.
You cannot be this dumb. It’s impossible.
let me lay it to you so you and your boyfriend smeegs can understand this.
The buckwheat guy said this…
I replied with this. Clearly meaning the area he was from. Pennsylvania, Mass, Jersey all northeastern yankee states where he grew up and started his career. Also added that we hired Pitino. Literally a guy born in NY and coached in
Then you two asshats chime in with the “I ThOuGht hE cAmE fRoM mEmPhIs” like no **** Sherlock, even the dumbest Tennessee fans know that.
But then you both doubled down on the stupidity and let it ride. All because you couldn’t read at who I was quoting and wanted to get your little Memphis shot in.
Can’t fight the receipts. And still not a single argument as to why we shouldn’t have made Hurley unable to say no. He was the only option. I guess Mitch knew he needed to save money for his new salary. Case closed.
Good lord, dude, you appear to have some mental health issues that might need addressed.
All I did was respond to your claim that we hired Cal “from New Jersey”, by correctly pointing out that was false. NJ is not where he’s originally from, nor is it where he lived when we hired him. Your statement was indisputably wrong by either interpretation. Deal with it.
Just like I said. You can’t show me where I said anything about “Yankees “ because I didn’t. You even included the post where the guy said it . It wasn’t me . You are such a dumbass .
Yankee?
You pushing for a Johnnie Reb?
Regardless, we already know UK would and has already hired arrogant BB coaches (and AD’s, too)!
And to think we picked Jasper over Mullins...smfh.
With 5/5, it sounds like he'll come back for the last 2 months of the year and be available.
Yeah that was dumb. Even in HS I could tell Braylon was a far superior player. He was a protocol Pope player too. No reason to not make him a priority.
Well, there was one reason. The “Kentucky boys” faction of our fan base would’ve lost their friggin minds if Pope hadn’t made Jasper ….the first five star recruit from Lexington in nearly forever …the higher priority.
Hurley would not get along with our boosters or our fans. He's actually not a great fit here.
It's very naive to think Hurley didn't know full well that we would give him a blank check. He didn't want to be here. Pretending there is something else we could have done won't change it. Much like Billy Donovan, how many times can we get rejected till we move on?
Agree 1,000%. Every time a UK coach didn't take a Kentucky kid and that kid did anything for another program, it was posted on this board again and again and the "Kentucky boys" faction would post repeatedly about the coach's failure to sign "one of our own."
And we get a technical for a guy pointing to the camera and another for a guy sticking out his tongue after a made basket. Those who don’t believe we get the worst whistle in college basketball are in denial. I have no clue why, but we do.
I felt that way for a long time. But last year I noticed him slowly moving from d-bag to punk. Punk I’m fine with.
Indiana sold their soul to keep Bob Knight who is one of the worst people in hell.
UConn will pay a toll for putting up with Hurley.
They should have lost in the FF last season when he head butted an official with .8 seconds left in the game.
No doubt. Evidence that BBN kinda bullied Pope to focus on JJ.
I’d bet money Pope deep down wanted Mullins but felt enormous pressure to sign Johnson.
This year’s roster is more suited with his type players. Good work by Brown
The Lakers gave Hurley a go-away offer. Jeanie had her moments where she was something along the lines of incompetent, but this wasn’t one of them. Hurley and his clan can spin it that he turned down the Lakers, but it was a go-away offer.

I don't think two blank checks would have hired Hurley to Lexington. He will go NBA or stay where he is for life. He has a great gig at UCONN with $$$$$, little to no pressure, and he and family loves the location.
