The Search for Calipari Thread

Believe Slick Rick Stansbury was the coach then, who is now an asst under Penny at Memphis.

Richard Williams was the coach, Stansbury was on staff though.

Ron Brewer told me Eddie sent him to Idaho to do the Dontae Jones speed run in order to get him eligible to play here. Mississippi State also had Erick Dampier on that team.

Why would Eddie care who played at Arkansas in 1996?

Anybody buying this?

[flash23]

No but that would be a hell of a hire.

The only thing I think that could even make that remotely true is basketball will always be second fiddle in Alabama, whereas that's not necessarily the case at Arkansas.

[Trigger7672]

No.

If you were good with Tang then you should be more than happy with Chris Jans.

Think we can outbid Mississippi State?

Jans > Tang

Jans is a lousy recruiter.

But I do wonder how they guys who transfer multiple times stay eligible.

Minefield was eligible on the transfer and played but then held out for "academics". The team went to 💩 shortly after.

This is like the search to replace heath and we know how that ended up.

[Barton Fink]

Jans is a lousy recruiter.

Maybe

He's coached 2 places that are really hard to sell and he did get Hubbard

[piglosopher]

Tang was never offered because of the 6 million buyout. Anyone that says otherwise, to me, is instantly discreditable.

[DRYANKNPULL]

In this day and age where you can direct deposit nil money, you have to really be getting after it to cheat in recruiting

[Barton Fink]

Usually it is tampering. Contacting a player before they hit the portal. Pitino get dinged for this a week or so ago.

Gittyup!

I have been wondering about this.  Is Wade even eligible to be hired at Arkansas?
