Greg Swaim (Drew is the guy)
- Thread starter Jamal Mercer
- Start date
Could have been, don’t know Illinois NIL but Shannon and Mayer went there so maybe they got paid well.
just like he did the last two BB hires....................SMH
I don't know about Cryer but I remember hearing that Mayer and his family were lunatics and nothing but drama.
Tught
we just got rid of the POS that set this program on fire...oh, I'm sry...u didn't mean dumpster fire...my bad.
Just because this Swaim guy said it doesn’t make it true . So many just panic with everything that’s posted. No way he offered that this quick, but who knows what has gone on in Mitch’s office today? None of us do. Relax.
Not my first choice but I will take his #3 rated recruiting class and get this new era started
remember when Cal said he sat around waiting for the call from Barney and it never came, then he saw Gillispie got the call?
Drew is Gillespie, Hurley is Calipari
He's gotta reach out to Hurley, at least to hear no.
Mitch appears to be deathly afraid of getting formally turned down.

And just what are those resources, and why are they better than Baylor's?
He would step in where Cal left off without missing a beat. 10 loss season and first weekend out. Only difference is Drew is more boring. Will bring no excitement. Tubby Smith style.
Yawn, zero chance this is real info. Cal is technically still the coach at Kentucky. Nothing can happen this fast.
At a place that’s never cared about basketball. Kentucky Basketball is a different story and he would get players he couldn’t dream of at Baylor.
lol, exactly. Some people on this board are mentally handicapped Im convinced. Thats why I try not to be too mean because I just assume they’re wearing a helmet.
We have a dumb fanbase overall.
People ignore the fact all our prior hires had less accomplishments than Drew would have if hired.
That comes off to me like a lot of opinion. It didn’t seem like there was any legit sources feeding Thamel info. I still think it’s in the realm of the possible Hurley is offered so much that UCONN can’t match and he can’t say no.
If he’s afraid of getting formally rejected, the best solution is to deliver an offer that can’t be refused.
Scott Drew will not get it done here !!
Very bad fit!
this program is a completely different animal than Baylor !!!

We recovered from BCG pretty damn fine.Doing this every 3-5 years is "fine"?

Lol, Baylor is in a p5, has wealthy boosters, is in talent rich TX which has produced more top 25 players than any state in the last 20 years, has invested heavily in Drew since he went there. They are a very wealthy school, have good facilities and resources.
Missouri managed to win 2 big 12 titles during that time, Iowa St won 5, TX won a couple, Ok st won a couple, but you're saying Baylor couldn't win at least 1?
Baylor is so bad Scott Drew could them to an E8 in 2010 and 2012 and then only go past the sw 16 once the next 12 years? And he also only made it to the sw16 twice in that gap as well.
He won a title at Baylor for cripes sake. He also is no slouch as a recruiter. Wonder what he could do with our resources?
If we get Drew, I support him of course but I hope he doesn’t get a huge contract. Mitch loves giving big money to coaches regardless of job performance.
They play in a 7500 seat arena in the middle of a football crazed state. Real apples to apples comparison to UK. Keep ‘em coming please !!
Ohh, so now they weren't good because they played in a new arena since 2024?
Go back and try to Google it again. You'll find they were in a different arean until this calendar year. Maybe don't come back and argue until you actually know what you're talking about.
Its that......you thought you were getting the christmas bonus cash for a swimming pool but its a year supply of jellybeans instead!
Tell us all about the final fours and championships that Rupp, Hall, Pitino, Tubby, and Cal won before they came to UK
