March 28, 200917 yr Back with the start of the Eddie Sutton era, Kentucky always went after Lute Olsen and Arizona would always give him more money and he stayed. I don't think Lute ever was going to consider KY. Billy D may be working the same game. :idunno: :thumb:Had that thought myself.
March 28, 200917 yr What is wrong with Stansbury @ Mississippi State???Nothing is wrong with Rick Stansbury, he is a very good coach, a class act and one that I would consider in my coaching search. I don't think however that he will be a consideration. Calipari for sure Absolutely not Calapari imo. I have said it before and I just don't trust the guy, he cheated once and got his school busted on it (UMass). I also feel that he is cheating at Memphis and just hasn't got caught yet, JMO. Also, a member of the NCAA sanctions division when Cal was at UMass (ones that placed him and UMass) under penalties is now on the U.K./NCAA compliance board. Wouldn't that make for a good working arragement? JMO but you hire Clapari and you are asking for trouble.

March 28, 200917 yr Personally, should Donovan mean what he is saying I would offer Wright or Izzo to name their price.
March 28, 200917 yr I think Dixon or Wright would be great hires! If Calipari or Donovan say no, I want Dixon.
March 28, 200917 yr The list starts and ends there. Pay whatever you have to to get one of these guys. No Jaime Dixon,No Jay Wright. Absolutely NO Rick Barnes or Travis FordDixon and Wright are playing each other for a berth in the Final Four. Barnes has one on his resume and a couple of Elite Eight appearances, I believe, and has won everywhere he's been. Why not those guys? They are all very good coaches and recruiters.
March 28, 200917 yr Its not about the "pay" anymore. All of those 3 are already rich, have steady jobs, and steady talent there and coming in. At UK they would have to build it back up. :thumb: I heard them talking about Wright and Nova earlier today on one of the preview shoews. Wright has 4 AA's coming back from this years Nova team and has 3 more McDF AA's signerd and coming in next season. 7 all americans on one bench at Nova next season:scared:, plus Wright will probably get a pretty good pay raise!
