Jay Wright just gave a firm no to Kentucky. He’s off the list. 

What's he going to say on national TV right before the championship game?

Nate Oats has just took himself out per Matt Jones.

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.

From what I read, he had interest and then Alabama boosters kicked in and kept him there 

Hurley said no last night after the game. It will be Drew probably today or tomorrow. 

It’s going to be Scott Drew. I’m okay with that. 

I think Donovan will be our guy. If Mitch gets Drew I think a lot of fans would revolt (I.e. Schiano to Tennessee). IF Donovan says no you would have to pivot to a tier of coaches like Sean Miller, Will Wade, or T.J. Otzelberger because more than likely UConn throws a bag and Hurley says no.

Why would an East Coast guy with all those ties in that area want to move to Lexington? His agent and attorney have probably drafted his new agreement contingent on winning tonight. UConn's fans love him and even if they struggle they won't be as brutal as UKs fans are.

 

 

That question could be answered by Rick or Cal.

Same. No way is Barnhart going to hire a "big personality"-type that will be bigger than the program. From all indications his relationship with Cal wasn't good. I think a more down-to-earth type of coach like Scott Drew is way more in line with Mitch's way of thinking.

Yep. I think it’s Drew myself. He did just win a national title two years ago and seems to have solid teams year in and year out unless I’ve missed something 

Scott Drew would be another notch in the rivalry as well. The coach who turned down Louisville, goes to Kentucky.

Isn't that hiring what they just ran off.  A guy with a title, a few close but no cigars and a few first round flops?   Again, define insanity.

Recency bias?

This is already a circus. Offer it to Dawn Staley to really get people going. 

Maybe she’ll bring her team.
