St. John's and Slice Part Ways
- Thread starter lp866
- Start date
Gonna go ahead and say he regrets leaving UK. Stupid career choices by him, really stupid
I was never in love with the hire and glad when he left.
Not suprised at all of this in the least.

A head scratcher for sure. I hope Cal isn't cavalier about it. Not sure slice isn't a little turmoil waiting to happen. Not sure in his business position-wise hopping a lot is smart unless it's him staying ahead of something....just thinking out loud. No insight...
Slice could have been one of the most over rated coaches in UK history.
Can't say I feel sorry for him. You don't trade Camelot for a slumland, even if the slum is run by one of your supposed best friends.
He was naïve to leave Kentucky.

Guys reputation was bigger than his results!
Y'all need to stop. Cal had his reasons and we should support that.
After UK - who really cares, but show coach some respect.

Never was happy about the hire. Still not sure what he did here.
Slice is a really good guy. Had the opportunity to meet him a few times. One of the most personable people you'll come across. Was told that Mullins wasn't totally pleased about the recruiting class especially Alkins decision to go out west and Heron's decision to go to Auburn. Not to mention they invested a lot of time into Thon Maker and we all know how that ended up. Slice was supposed to real in a big fish. Although the got Ponds, there biggest pickups were transfers that will have to sit out a season.
What's with the random grammar breakdowns in this thread? It real weird me to it got yeah they suck.
What part dont you understand? Stupid he left UK, For UK it clearly makes no difference whether he is here or not.
lol. The transition grammar tends to break down here in the summer, leading to easy buckets.
In the one year Slice was recruiting for UK..
1. We bring in Briscoe..a solid but not great PG
2. Skal...we know how that one turned out
3. Matthews...solid player but not elite and eventually left
4. Murray was a late addition and was 100% Cal
5. Wynard...a total mystery
6. Humphries...a late addition after losing out on many bigs.
We missed in Diallo, Zimmerman, Newman and Brown. The year after Slice leaves we reel in Fox, Monk, Bam, SKJ, Gabriel and only major miss was Bolden inside. I'm sort of not missing him and think we're better off w/o him.
the year he was here we missed on more recruits than we've ever missed. Maybe it was just the class. But he sure didn't help.
It's easier to recruit to Ky than St. John's. Mullin has an uphill battle and unfortunately for Slice he's the first casualty.
Yeah, right, hated it so much he jumped on the first train out after only being here what ..maybe 8 months or so? Yep, a true blue BBN'er that guy was.
Oh, did we get our wittle feelings hurt? Learn English genius.
The funny part was you questioning me about what I couldn't understand.
