Agree there. I knew he'd pull out the "look at all we've done for the state, etc." I applaud him for that but he's paid to win in the post season and I think he's run out of rope with Mitch. I don't expect him to get fired but I still have hope that Mitch will make enough demands that he'll leave on his own.
This ain't over yet

If Mitch had the upper hand he’d have made sure that radio show didn’t happen. Absolutely zero chance he can be fired now after being allowed to essentially say he’s the coach on statewide radio.
No other coach would ever come here seeing one of their fraternity treated as such.
Problem is we have heard this same nonsense for 3 straight years. "Next year will be the year." It's been 15 years of this guy. We ALL know how it ends.
No, but I won't waste my time on KY, while he's still here! I'm almost 84 years old and I've been a rabid fan since 1957 and I'm done until he's gone!!!
Donovan doesn’t do it for me tbh. Jay Wright is the only guy who doesn’t have a job right now that would move the needle to me.
This is how a smart AD would make the move.
He should put spending limits on certain things. If I saw right the basketball program spent 22+ million. You take the unreasonable luxury spending away from Cal. You start budgeting everything like everybody else does and I bet you cal will walk!
People need to realize by going on air before meeting with Barnhart gave Cal ultimate control of the narrative.
yes. he completely manipulated the interview with leach.

^^^^ This post was from Saturday and the leak was spot on. Same group are saying Cal is staying with agreements to be made and followed. If not followed, Mitch will have "cause" for termination.
I can see this.
I feel good , expect the opposite of whatever Cal acts/ appears/ speaks .. if he's confident then Mitch has the goods on him . Case Closed ... he's NEVER told. the truth on the radio show .. so cocky Cal again .. drop the axe tomorrow .. or we could be waiting for the NCAAT to end .
I think, in general, not may in the upper echelons of UK college athletics care about our tradition demands the way we do. The way we have.
I think it’s a hard pill to swallow (for me as well) but I’m starting to feel like the way it was (the tradition, fandom etc we grew up with) is a thing of the past. It seems pretty evident.
A “little” rough, but IYKYK LOL!!!I'm hoping this is Cal's hand.
Yeah, he was still talking as they went off the air. Sounded desperate and not as cocky. Strange hearing him talk about winning and championships and not it 'being about the kids.' First time think I can ever remember him talking about winning to get the highest seed possible.
No, I think apathy will set in if none of the players return. Now, that could change if certain fan favorite players return, particularly Reed, but we will all just have to wait and see what happens.
This summer will determine how bad it will be here next season.
His goals have never aligned with ours from day one but he got players and had energy and we won for 5 years. The energy is gone, he’s aged and we as fans are hostages and have been for quite some time. Sadly, we just have to wait it out now because of the contract.
