Maedhros Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 When the four game deal between Kentucky and Indiana was announced, we didn't think there was any way Cal would stick around long enough to coach in that fourth game at Assembly Hall. Turns out, he ran from having to play Indiana at all, even at Rupp. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euroclydon Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 About two years in as uk coach Cal said he wasn't a lifer. Something about not wanting to coach into his 70s. If he does five years at Arkansas that puts him on the doorstep. I guess Arkansas is good with a five year window and hope to get a title out of it. My guess is the money and ego push him beyond five years. Still not sure why he stays in the South. Seems he'd be looking to go back East closer to home. Unless he feels Arkansas is on the brink right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
