Why wasn't it there for Cal?

Probably for a similar reason as why there is a lot more lined up here for Calipari than there would have been for year five under Musselman.

For a guy that wasn't in the top 6 in salary in the Big XII alone

I know this: Cal isn't going to be scared to take the Razorbacks to Rupp Arena next season.

They actually did it. They hired the guy.

They wanted a tier I coach but he's anything but. Zero tournament wins in 8 years.

They might have been better off actually hiring Pelphrey.
The same people demanding everyone embrace your beliefs, have zero tolerance and condemn another for embracing theirs.  Oh, the irony.

How much of a manic depressive pussy do you have to be for that to be your reaction to a joke on a sports message board.

Pope looks like my neighbor from across the road that's all serious about fitness and shit. It's disgusting.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

Didn't take long at all for the UK fans go from anger to acceptance and justification.

I heard someone talking today about Cal saying 75% of my players went to the NBA, and some other high amount got second contracts.

If your goal is to make as much as you can in college through NIL because that's your ceiling, sure. If your goal is to make millions through a career in the NBA, I'm your guy.
