The Search for Calipari Thread

I will give Here'sYourCheck credit for that. Takes balls.

Did it? By doing it through Twitter in some bizarre roundabout way? Just say it to his face. Yurachek is a clown.

[red death]

He's been actively looking to get out of here all year.  It's been reported multiple times by multiple sources. 

The fact that there's people upset over losing a 16-17 coach this last year is like battered wife syndrome. 

"Oh sure he hits me but he USED to be good!"  LOL get his ass out of here.  It's just funny he has no market value and can't go.  That should tell all the birdbrains something. 

Yurachek knows what he's doing.  He's getting ahead of the story and backing douchebag into a corner.  If you don't extend your coach that's the next best thing to firing him. 

What is certain is Muss will be toxic if he's here next year.

[Trigger7672]

Yurachek knows what he's doing. 

That would be a first.

[Sus-Scrofa]

If our AD is communicating with our head basketball coach passive aggressively through Twitter, then the athletic department is FUBARed.

The article doesn't say he hasn't talked to Muss about the future, just didn't coordinate the video with him. Maybe he has, maybe he hasn't. We shall see.

[red death]

The reality is Muss is going to fuck us.  If you can't see that I don't know what to do. 

He doesn't want to be here and they're trying to force his hand. 

Our program couldn't be in worse shape.  We have nothing.  I mean nothing for continuity.  Musselman knows it, Yurachek knows it but our fans somehow think you can run off your entire team and magically be successful.  The program management is probably the worse I've ever seen and we will be starting over from the absolute bottom. 

If he tanks our open window to get a new coach and players in the portal by jumping ship, which he wants to do but can't, then there aren't enough fuck yous in the universe for him. 

What they CAN'T do is give him more money and extend him. 

But yes, it's going to be anither disaster but it's definitely NOT Yuracheks fault or our board.  

The blame for all this
,including the drama and program mismanagement and losing, belongs SOLELY on EricPMusselman.

He sucked at his job and he's acting like a big prick wanting more money, or at the very least pulling a Dale by flirting with other jobs. 

[Rick B.]

Our athletic director is retarded. 

No.

[Pig Benis]

Which I have no problem with.

Same here. I really like Muss and hope he stays but I have no problem with HY calling his bluff at this point.

[BASS]

If Muss wants to go to USC, let him.

Go hire amir abdur-rahim or however he spells it.

[hit_that_line]

Fucking let Muss go at this point. Bring on Tang.

[red death]

Fucking let Muss go at this point. Bring on Tang.

They 100% are.

Imagine releasing that video knowing your coach is shopping. 

He made him have to respond affirmative (which he didn't) or show his true intentions (which he did).

Chess move.  Then he gives the university's side in the interview which is you can come back but you're overpaid for the results you gave already. 

I promise Eric is pissed big time.  Big time.  It's brilliant taking the power away from him. 

[Borenutz]

Under .500 in conference 3 out of 5 years. It was nice to see us add some banners, but he had some luck on his side.

The last two years had a lot of stank on them, which we'd all put up with for a bit, given the end results, but you gotta wash that shit off.

He does not have the leverage and it wouldn't be the worst timing for us, with some recent success to sell.

[DrMongoose]

Hunter is on a roll....

If I had money to just throw at something, I think I'd rather just throw it at a new deer stand. I'd get much more enjoyment from that than throwing money at a bunch of kids who don't know me and routinely will run patterns a yard short of the first down marker or refuse to tackle in a program that perpetually is a dumpster fire.
I got kids of my own that can disappoint me just as easily that I'd rather burn money on.

Little Timmy, where did the bad man touch you?

[Hogworth Ballington III]

I love how quickly people convince themselves of an unverifiable certainty. At this point no one knows a damn thing, but they've read all the tea leaves and heard all the unsubstantiated rumors they need to fit the narrative they've invented in their heads.

EXACTLY.  Damn.

[Lurk]

Little Timmy, where did the bad man touch you?

He's got to be an Arkansas State troll. There's no way someone is that bloodthirsty about the entire Arkansas sports administration. He hates them all, just wait until Van Horn drops a series.

It's either that or he's just super weird.

I'm certain Muss is a good recruiter and roster builder. I've watched him be out coached and defeated by lesser talented teams many times. I've watched him coach a team to victory over better teams. I watched him coach three McDonald's all Americans to an 8 seed. I watched the abortion that was this year's team.

Take from that what you will about his ability to coach and make your own conclusions about how successful he will be here in the future.

I'm of the opinion there are better X's and O's coaches out there making a lot less money. If he stays, ok. If he leaves, ok, but the roster next year might be awful.

I have no clue about anything else.

[hit_that_line]

This season was historically bad. Worst home losses in history. Certainly underplayed versus the talent level. He's a slimy little piece of shit if he's making any demands whatsoever after this year. Yurachek took a chance in him after balking initially because of red flags.
