Cal needs to stop using UK as B-rads Make a Wish program. He can go sit by Tony Barbee and work his way up.
Here is what ENG has taken from UK.
- scholarship (technically a walk on for 2 years but you know he didn’t pay for anything) for 3 years.
-the ability to redshirt his last year while we were playing with 7 so he could go somewhere else and still have 2 years eligibility.
- a graduate asst position (I guess I’m ok with this one as he aspires to coach and this is an entry level job).
- now a FT asst position where we prob have hundreds of more qualified candidates that would kill to get the spot. Seriously, go earn your stripes somewhere else at a lower school.
Compare that to what he has given to the program and there isn’t another person EVER associated with the program who has taken more, given less. Completely laughable he tattooed “earned not given” across his chest. His life is 100% opposite of what he sees everyday in the mirror.
I didn’t like Cal hiring his old crony friends to come in and be asst coaches but at least they were coaches. This would be a laughable hire and I hope he hears this before it becomes official.

Let's see what Linda Blackford says before rushing judgment.
It'll be an awful hire but they all do it. Steven Pearl is the only reason I wouldn't want Bruce here.
Here's who Cal SHOULD hire if he wants to keep it in the family....Dana Dingle.
Played for him at UMass on that '96 team, and is now co-director of the New York Lightning AAU program. They've produced Chris Duarte, the Ziegler kid from UT, Posh Alexander from St. John's, and their best prospect at the moment, Elliot Cadeau, is already being looked at by Kentucky for '24.
An actual, you know, COACH, who probably has AAU connections nationwide and can help shore up Kentucky's recruiting in the Northeast. This is the kind of hire "past Cal" would have made, instead of just lazily moving Brad into that spot.
Again, I'm not saying I'd hire Dana Dingle above everyone else out there. Just saying that if Cal wants familiarity in that spot, that's the hire I'd rather see him make than some retread head coach or his own son, who hasn't proven anything.

Cal's clearly not the first coach to put his kid in a cush coaching job, and he won't be the last. That said, couldn't he do the Nick Saban thing? Buy an auto dealer and put Brad in a GM position?
Brad Calipari routinely wears turtlenecks.
Pass.
Pass.
My last post on the subject but isn’t this role for game planning and scouting? Clearly a skill ENG has already developed and mastered.
That's not what we are going for at all. Some of these "collectives" are going to cause some serious harm to their universities at some point because what they are doing in just filtering cash to students, especially the ones that are setup as a 501C3 and claim to do charitable work.
Yes, we will use student athletes NIL and they will be compensated for their services, advertising, event appearances, etc, but our main mission is to utilize them to raise money for statewide non-profits. Our group wants everything we do to be a win win for the student athlete, for the University of Kentucky, and for nonprofits that provide much needed services to the people of Kentucky. As our organization grows, the money to statewide nonprofits grow, and the compensation to student athletes grow. We have some large donors that are ready to work with us, but every donation, no matter the size, will be needed to turn this into what we want it to be. Truly, what more could you want out of all of this NIL craziness than what we are going to do?
I believe we are in the final turn of getting everything complete with UK and then we will be able to announce our first deal. And it will be a big one. Stay tuned.
Lastly, if you're a business owner looking to do NIL advertising deals for your company, that's not what we do. I'd be happy to refer you to some other companies that are for profit and do those kind of deals directly with the student athletes they represent.
HUBER and TMFS are just bathing in altruism. Congrats on your service to society, and thank you for making the world a better place.
Are you focusing on synergies?
^he's gonna have to cicle back to that...he'll reach out to you when he's able.
I personally wouldn’t lift a finger for any of these shitheads unless I made a lot of money out of it.
Wonder how that Porsche dealership feels about the Sharpe NIL deal now. If anything, it will probably end up costing them money.
Cal doesn't GAF anymore. IMO,this will be his last season if he doesn't get Wagner Jr to commit, next season will if he does.
SYNERGIES.
CIRCLE BACK.
BEST PRACTICES.
HEY, I’M JUST LIVIN’ THE DREAM.
JUST ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE!
*** the last two literally make me want to reach through the phone and strangle the person on the other line***

Our company recently warned us to never say "just living the dream" when someone asked how you were doing on a Zoom call. I agree with this advice unequivocally.
Anotha' day anotha' dolla'...
I heard some mortgage officer at RBT say this on the phone to someone back right after college when I went to work there. Just like I wrote it, too. With that look on his face. I almost got up and walked out on the spot. I still think about it and get angry.

I cancelled a job interview once because the guy told me to "bring my A game."
Absolutely no chance, bub.

Guarantee they worked hard AND played hard.
Was a nice little tourism/visitors board special weather weekend in Louisville.
My grandmother has taken a bit of a downward turn to the point where we finally had to make the call last week and have her in palliative care facility. We wanted her to be able to meet our daughter so we made the ride up. 7 hour drive with an 11 week old- actually went fine.
My grandmother called her hair lady in to come fix her up because she wanted to look nice too meet the little one- i about lost it when I heard she went to that trouble. She sat in her lap and visited for a couple of hours, just talking away. The rest of us may as well not even been in the room.
Got to have dinner and drinks with Bonzo and a few others Saturday night. Porcini's always delivers, imo. It wont unseat Jack Fry's, but its always a great time there.
My dad got one of those blackstone griddles Saturday- I cooked breakfast on it Sunday morning- was a nice little change up. Pretty cool. I'm in the market for a mid-range/nicer gas grill. Loved the egg for a decade or so but di need something that is faster and more convenient. Assume Weber is the play.
My wife commeneted "it just seems like a bit of overkill for fireworks" and while I told her that she needs to chill and she just doesnt understand the Derby Festival- she's probably spot on. Its just fireworks.
I work with some pretty hardened and unhappy people on the admin side of public higher education- so cliche greetings and phrases are an absolute no-go around here. "Good morning" and "Have a good night, bud" are about as much as we are gonna get. Fine by me. Occasionally you'll hear a "How was your lunch" and thats fine too.
Got our pre-daycare invoice for what the cost breakdown is gonna be. $1250/month is the going rate per kid these days. So there was literally about 2 months between when I finally got finished with student loans, and then childcare began. So much for getting a little bit ahead

Did daycare with two then onto parochial school. Felt like we got a raise when we got them out of daycare.
Battling sources! (Please dear God let Kyle be right)
Childcare is worth every penny, IMO. They should really charge more. They have you 100% by the cajones. Not like there are openings at cheaper daycares or other options. Quiet time.
Cal apparently gave Jones some bad info to get his son a better deal at another school. That sly devil! He's not washed up yet!
At this point I want Cal to hire Brad. Let’s do it all. Let’s reclassify an 8th grader. Give me that Cowboy’s NIL deal. Send me a box of Ellen’s high potency weed brownies. Let’s do it man, let’s torch the whole village.
- Much needed 
- 27 holes of golf between Friday night and Saturday morning. Woke up with tennis elbow for the first time in my life. Absolute ***** of a nagging ailment. Tips from you divot-heads to avoid?
- Welcome back, @thejjackie, your stories have been missed by all.
- Porcini, Seviche, Jack Fry's. Shake them up in a bag and toss them out there, the bees knees of River City dining.
- Oscar and Wheeler returning. The rest is noise. I'd be fine not hearing a peep about our basketball program until October and hopefully by then my flash-like memory will have purged the anger of this past season.
- Not the perfect analogy, but this is the first thing that always comes to mind when I think about how NIL deals benefit the business:

Controversial take on Jack Fry's... while the food you get is obviously the same. If you're not in the main room of that place it's like you're on the JV team. Just ruins the experience.
