I just found that. Landed at 9:43 and took back off at 10:04.

And its not from Waco but temple, had to expand search. Trying to actually get work done in middle of this enjoyment.

As this coaching carousel madness continues on from here into the summer, someone gonna finally scoop up my dude #BuckyBall? If not, they need to. Future star, imo.

Losing 10 games at Baylor is way different than losing 10 games at Kentucky.

He has as many titles as our former HOF once upon a time Werepecker coach…with 1/10 of the pure talent.

And he’s our damn backup plan.
And he's 53 years old. This is a ten year job and he's the perfect age. That matters.

John Calipari might be the greatest negotiator of all time. He turned almost getting fired into $1M upfront and another revolving door contract that will guarantee him income through retirement. This is the last I'm going to say about him for quite some time but seriously -- RESPECT!

Every week with Calipari for 15 years has been like the last 30mins of Goodfellas.

Helicopters! Stir the sauce! Sell the guns! Get the babysitters hat! Cut the coke!

Complete chaos.

And that’s awesome when we’re dominating. But awful when we’re getting bounced in the first round.

We needed that storm to put us back in the spotlight after Tubby’s malaise and BCGs ineptitude.

Now…Drew brings the stability that the program/fans need.

No wonder Ellen was upset. I think he did awful. He got a pay cut AND WENT to Arkansas. Hank, he had that here. If we fired him he got paid to do nothing.

What he got was lower standards. They are ok with NCAA tournament bids. We aren’t.

In my opinion it's a great hire for Arkansas. They were left with nothing after Muss left. Cal is going to bring in top recruiting classes and with that there will always be hope you catch a generational talent and make a run. They didn't have much hope before; now they have it.

They had been turned down several times. Of course, for Arkansas, it will save embarrassment. Give it some time. They don’t call Cal “The Emperor” for nothing in the UK athletics office.

I'm joking and f***ed the joke up. For someone who is known as the world's greatest negotiator, he cost himself a lot of money. Pretty solid deal he got from Arkansas, though.

Oh... it's not going to end well for them.

Btw... remember when Coach K had to take most of the year off due to back issues and his team sucked? Not making any point about whether that was legit at all, but I would LOVE to see Cal get his players and then just hand it over to some other coach who knew what he was doing. Was that deal ever discussed? Could Mitch have said, "counter-offer: you recruit the team and then just sit on your *** until April."

And Tommy getting wacked was like losing to Oakland and one of the apostles. UK fan reaction was like Jimmy's reaction in the phone booth.... anger, sadness, confusion, more anger.

Gonna suck if Drew doesn’t accept the offer, on the other hand it would be a major dick swing if we hired a guy the day after Cal accepted the Arkansas job

- To pass the time until the new coach is announced, can we get a good Chumps post about The Masters tv coverage? The true tradition unlike any other.
