UCONN's a **** of a gig and Hurley's a great coach. I don't see him leaving for some time.

[Lobot]

UK will contact Billy Donovan, Scott Drew and Dan Hurley per Kentucky Sports Radio. No mention of Cronin so far.

Hurley effectively took his name out already

i heard part of an interview with Cronin - he was practically begging UK to offer him the job - I can't imagine that happening - at this point, I also can't imagine him being at ucla much longer - he's been ragging on the ucla setup now for months

You know Cronin is going to be ranting a lot this upcoming year when UCLA is traveling cross country for Big Ten games -- not looking out for the student-athletes etc etc

Per Pete Thamel & Jeff Borzello of ESPN:

"Calipari's contract is expected to have an overall base salary of slightly less than the $8.5 million he's making at Kentucky, sources told ESPN. However, the deal is expected to be incentive-laden with the ability to pass that number."

since nil is now legal for everyone, I think that coach cal lost his big $$ bag advantage. I don't think UK cares if he left - that saved the school a huge payout, and should get it some younger, energetic leadership. my question is, has anybody heard any numbers, as to cal's new deal with arkansas? probably wrong, but I can't imagine that arkansas would meet or beat what uk was paying.
