Familiarity breeds complacency.

Well it would have been a bad sign for him to not "win" the press conference - but that was an awesome press conference.
-
I 100% cannot see what Sheppard can do to improve his draft stock more than it is right now. I don't think I've seen him projected below 7th in any mock, and currently as high as 3rd. This is a very weak class - he could have a great year next year at Kentucky and slide backward. By far one of the things I respected most about Cal is that he put the player's future above everything else. Yes, it was frustrating at times. But he knew that most likely they'd harm themselves to pass on the opportunity, and he forced them to make the right choice. Sheppard needs to go (even though frankly, he isn't NBA ready).

I sure hope they didn’t do it because of that - because he’s not staying.
-
Was he excited about Billy G as well? Because here today, feels awfully familiar to that one. And when that went up in flames, he begrudgingly went to the guy a lot wanted two years prior.
-
Well at least there is that. I’m sure they leaked that now because of what they’re seeing in reactions to this monstrosity of a (potential) hire.
-
When everyone is surprised…. not a good sign.
-
I don’t blame Mitch for the rejections, and in fact laud him for those pursuits. But to use the analogy, he swung for the fences for his first two strikes and then laid down a bunt just to get contact. He better hope it doesn’t roll foul and he manages to get on base. Maybe gets a steal and a couple of passed balls to round the bases.
-
It’s A way to go, but it’s risky. If this goes poorly, Barnhart is most assuredly out. Also RE: Hurley, he wasn’t an alum at UConn, so clearly something else got him the job. Does anyone believe Pope sniffs this job if he’s not a UK alum? I mean ANYONE?
-
He’s a body who can go ahead and start working as compared to the worry of waiting on someone like Donovan. Best I got.
-
There’s a lot of Billy G in this hire so yeah, maybe that’s true. Unfortunately, that may be too kind given that Billy had actually won some NCAA tournament games before coming.
-
Reeks of panic. Not to mention, this is a guy you can get in a week, two weeks, month from now. I get you’re worried about players and the portal but holy cow. I’m sticking with the belief that the change was needed but man…. this is a potential faceplant. I immediately thought of Doherty at North Carolina. That’s not a good thing.
-
We went through all this "offered" crap with Alabama. Alabama claimed that the only guy offered was the one who accepted the job. I'd say that's because no one is offering the job unless they're certain it's a yes, so that they can say exactly this. Drew probably wasn't offered (wink), but he was offered.
-
He never did track down those real killers. He must never have looked in the mirror.
-
Of the more realistic names, he was top of my list. Of course, supposedly he was never even in the running per the "sources", but I still hoped.
