You could be right, or completely wrong. We will never know. Once again though if Cal had left after that 2019 season. Many people would feel about him like they did about Pitino. Pitino left when he was still on top. Can guarantee people would have turned on Pitino eventually too, because he wouldn’t have even been able to keep at the same high level he was at those last couple of years. Yet fans would have expected him too. 
 

Which I would be perfectly fine if Pitino came back and gave us five more years before retiring. 

I’m getting your point, but who’s to say Pitino couldn’t have continued with his fantastic run while here? Lots of if’s with those situations, just personally glad we are getting a new look with a different coach as we needed very badly.

Gonzaga? 

Yeah, Stephen A laughed that one off right away.  He didn’t like UConn either; said there was no place to go from here but down. 
 

His number one was Duke.  He liked Michigan as well.

I'm not saying it's not going to happen, but that account is about the worst possible one to get your information from. 

He has consistently thrown out information that's not really a scoop, and when he's been more specific and wrong, he either deletes the tweet or just uses the "things changed." 

I mean with that specific tweet... Why would someone who is supposedly helping set up the press conference know when Drew is meeting with his team? Notice the several degrees of separation? That's his usual tactic.

Evidently the Jet tracked from Texas to Kentucky, went back to Texas this afternoon.  Drew's family was seen getting off of the jet according to reports from Texas. For what that's worth. 

Drew's wife has reservations about moving...Kelly Craft said here guys hold my glass of whine, I will take care of this.

For real, no better time of the year to fly someone into Lexington area over the horse farms and Keeneland?:)

If UK doesn't have someone better than Kelly Craft to offer, they are in trouble.

I don't know muvch about her...other than it was her plane:)  

Seriously Drew puts his family on a plane to come visit Lex (Which tells me his mind is made up), then goes and has lunch with a big booster in Waco (probably getting a sweeter pot there in case his family doesn't like the Lex trip).  

That's some pretty shrewd business negotiations if you asked me! All while getting his favorite Mexican restraunt some hype as well!  You have to love big time Coaching searches in the social media days!

Yeah I would agree that sending the family there doesn't make much sense to me at all, regardless of how you're leaning. 

What are they going to learn in a couple hours that would help them make the decision? 

One angle I thought of... Perhaps he sent them so that if he does turn it down, which is unlikely IMO, he can say "This was a family decision" so he doesn't make Mitch look bad. 

I really need to get some work done today.  

But I once again can't.....

I like Drew as the choice....let's make it happen and get this show on the road.

 

I'm confident we will know about Drew today regardless of the decision.

I still believe it's Duke, UK, UNC, & Kansas.  Don't know about the fifth.  Probably UCONN.

Probably by noon.

Deuce for a non UK fan, you sure are following this closely?

I'm a college sports fan, who is locked in to social media, and lives in Kentucky. So yeah.
