Total mischaracterization of the situation. It’s not a Kentucky hoop coach preferring Arkansas straight up it’s a Kentucky coach underachieving for a number of years and getting out of town ahead of the posse and starting fresh in a more relaxed situation than the pressure cooker he was in.

Greenberg is cheap SOB , use to only tip $2 bucks at Sherwood Diner!

Rick needs to adamantly put the UK rumors to rest ASAP. If not, impact on recruiting could be catastrophic.

There are no rumors though.

There are no Rick to UK rumors. He's not going anywhere and everybody knows it

 

[bucketshardy]

think it only helps recruiting that some random pundits bring his name up for one of the Premier jobs (top 3?) in the sport... at 72!!!

If he did leave he might replace Jarvis as the most irrationally hated coach on this board.

Iona fans beg to differ. I believe he also said that was his last stop.

My guess is we’d grab Speedy if Rick screwed us and jumped ship

Luckily don’t think we’ll have to find out

Yes , it’s fun to speculate on things unlikely to happen . Speedy is a good choice but , would he be the only choice ?
If we are speculating why not Shaheen ? Cooley set the precedent for BE Coaches to move within Conference.
Calipari has just done the same thing .

For Coaches in College BB it’s not about the Billy’s and Joe’s , it’s about the Benjamin’s

Happy to keep Pitino for 10 years, but we’d go hard after Holloway over Speedy with someone like Shanley at the helm.

Doubt Holloway would leave for a similiar job, which begs the question what is a better job seton hall or St. John’s ?

St. John's by a long shot
