I have ill feelings towards his resignation so for now I don't even want to imagine another coach here. I'm just looking up some good Golden Gopher gear to wear next season.
dont even act like you like UK if your gonna wear minnesota crap because of the coach. thats pathetic man.

The sportsline article mentioned Crean as a candidate. Aside from that final four season, Crean hasnt done much in the NCAA tournament and has a few first round losses. I wonder how long he would last at UK if he lost in the first round of the tournament 2 straight years?

To cold. I'm a UK fan and that will never change.

Calipari (sp?) would be my pick. Him or Izzo. Both seem to be pretty good coaches, especially Izzo.

IMO, I'd like to see a Kentucky Boy get the job, or atleast someone who recruits Kentucky boys. One that would pick up the next Chris Lofton that comes along.

yeah, he's perfect for A&M but im not so sure about UK..Im still hoping for Few, D'antoni or Pelphrey..those are my favs. Gillespie, Crean, Izzo, guys like that are perfect where they are. We've been spoiled since the days of Pitinos Bombinos, lol..remember those days? But I dont think that they would be accepted because of their style of play. Just like Tubby...

Dude. People can like two teams. They do it all the time. I am UK through and through and UK will always be my primary team but I like Tubby and I will now root for Minnesota as well. There is nothing wrong with having two teams to root for.

No doubt about it. :thumpsup: I will be keeping an eye on the Gophers as well. After all Tubby does have permanent ties to Kentucky.

I just don't see Pelphrey being a top notch coach. I don't want him personally.

me either.. I would love to see ole Rick back.
Going to be interesting waiting for the news of who will be the new coach. Rick or Billy D would be my top picks. If we couldnt get them then go after Calipari.
03-22-2007, 06:20 PM
I don't see them going after Pitino for some reason. I don't think Pitino would come back either. I just want someone who is going to turn this team back into an elite program.

I agree.

I doubt Pitino will leave UL, however, Donovan has been putting off his contract re-negotiations with Florida....interesting.
03-22-2007, 06:43 PM
Pitino needs to come back....

ESPN.com is reporting that the possible candidates are Michigan State's Tom Izzo, Marquette's Tom Crean, Memphis's John Calipari, Gonzaga's Mark Few, and Notre Dame's Mike Brey. I like Izzo. He has a National Championship with the Spartans, and just look at the players he has produced: Jason Richardson, Mateen Cleaves, Morris Peterson, Paul Davis, and Charlie Bell were all NCAA All-Americans, and look at the impact Zach Randolph is having in the NBA. He led the Spartans to 3 straight Final Fours (1998-1999, 1999-2000, 2000-2001), with a National Championship in 1999-2000. He also reached the Final Four in 2004-2005. I like the way he recruits (8 McDonald All-Americans, and 5 Michigan Mr. Basketballs in 8 seasons, 1 Illinois Mr. Basketball) and develops players.
I think Calipari would be good too. Be it, he hasn't proven to be a contender in the NCAA Tournament, he consistently has one of the country's top teams. He recruits some of the best that America's high schools have to offer.
I don't think UK will be a #1 contender next season, but give the new coach a year or two to implement his new system and to get some players in, and then I think UK will be yet again a top program.

I would take Izzo...Maybe even over Donovan.
