Chris Mortensen has passed away. That’s a shame. I liked Mortensen.

I watched two out of three on youtube. ESPN in any form is pretty useless to me.

John Calipari is going to Arkansas from Kentucky. Lots of back room deals to get rid of Calipari without the $33M price tag. I like Calipari but it was time for him to go. He was gutting Kentucky’s program with one and done, turning it into an NBA developmental league. 

Best of luck to him. I’m really curious who all they have slated for the replacement process.

Wish he wasn't so old, but I would like to see someone like Jim Larranaga get an opportunity to coach a team like Kentucky. He took George Mason and Miami to the final 4 and neither are anywhere near the basketball schools Kentucky is.

Dan Hurley seems to be the popular candidate but it’s being reported that the UK Athletic Director, Mitch Barnhart, has a thing for Scott Drew, the coach for Baylor. 

There will be no shortage of interested candidates. Don’t screw this up, Barnhart.

Dan Hurley says no. So does Villanova’s coach. Maybe there will be a shortage of candidates. Then again, is a coach’s word any better than a politician’s when it comes to opportunity?
