We can appreciate having him and knowing when he is gone we will keep ticking. No one coach is bigger than Kentucky basketball. Coach Cal would tell you the same thing. Some are more successful but even good coaches can become great here.

All those great coaches IU got after Knight. How many titles did those coaches get for IU?
I agree but Indiana fans were saying the same thing after Knight left. You see how that turned out.
Why do you keep comparing us to IU? They have never been as good as us and never will be. We've had 3 of 4 coaches win championships since Bobby Knight was fired and the one who didn't was dumped after 2 years. We don't settle for mediocrity.
IU was the king of college basketball when Knight was there. Their fans thought when Knight left they would not take a step back. I am not saying that will happen at UK when Cal leaves but none of us know what the future holds. We do know we have one of the best coaches in college basketball now and should be happy that Cal is our coach.
If that Virginia Tech coach is able to recruit pretty well there he could be scary. Runs a really fun style of offense. Should be able to get a lot better guys than he was getting at a Wofford and has already made a depleted VT roster empowered. Pretty cool.
Agree with Stevens, somewhat agree with Billy D.
I don’t see either of those ever as an option unfortunately. I’d be okay with either though (if Cal were to retire for example)
It's true, and no program gets championships out of merely "good" coaches like UK does.
But still, this is a lot more fun than Joe B or Tubby years.
No, but when you mock Kentuckians with your FAAAR Cal, then make this thread with Fire Izzo, you show your true colors.
Right?
It’s like that hill everyone wants to sled on when there are bigger hills no one is on. It doesn’t make any sense, but weeee!!!!!
Unlike you I have never complained about Cal. He is the one of the best coaches in college basketball.
both suggestions are dumb, just as dumb to compare Va tech to Evansville as some are going to try to do. One is a major conference team the other is a N.I.T/CBI tournament team in a low major
To be fair my boy Zay has definitely called for Cal to be fired on more than one occasion after a bad loss lol.
Also, the infamous “reverse jinx”
By the way.... NOW is the time to post a thread........ using Duke and SFA as your example because now it fits. carry on.
I tried but the mods censored it. No profanity, just a similar post to this one.
@JohnBlue_ just ban me and I’ll go back to lurking once a month.
Powerful Virginia Tech curb stomped by mid major Dayton.
Also, that loss of a mid major beating a #1 team at home that never happens. Stephen F. Austin says hello.
For people badgering the original poster so much it’s funny how quickly things can change in just one day.
