2024 Mens CBB Coaching Carousel

Probably getting a new chicken restaurant chain thrown in the deal to. Cal's Chicken, coming to a location near you soon.
Cal still thought he could win in the tournament with 5 freshman starters. Doesn’t work anymore. Maybe he will adapt at Arkansas.
He'd be at the top of my list for any job. I would have put him ahead of Calipari. How many current head coaches have a national title under their belt? 7?
For all of Calipari's success on the recruiting trail, they came out of his 15 seasons with 1 national title. Their last Sweet Sixteen was in 2019. Things had definitely gone stale there.
And Drew is definitely used to transfers, something Cal hasn't totally embraced.

Yup. 7. 8 if you consider Billy Donovan is still currently a basketball head coach, but at another level.
I agree with everything here but I'm not sure Scott Drew is a "chase the money" type of guy. He already has a top ten salary at over five million per year. Maybe he throws his name out there to get a raise, but he seems pretty happy at Baylor.
I also have a hard time picturing nice guy Scott Drew wanting to put up with the fanatical Kentucy fanbase... just my opinion, though.
If your UK don't they have to ask Danny Hurley if there's interest? Maybe he's and east coast guy and feels he can thrive at UConn. But the NCAA is evolving so he'll have to evaluate that piece.
Drew makes a lot of sense because he's still young and has had tons of success at Baylor. And UK might get him closer to his Indiana roots (if that's important).
Oats is a natural, he's young, runs an uptempo style that is appealing to elite players.
Tommy Lloyd would be similar of Oats in age/style.
Brad Stevens might be a reach. But he's young and maybe in the NIL/transfer era running UK's program will be a bit like an NBA front office guy.

Yeah, me either. He’s 65. Even if they have lots of NIL money, does he understand it? Of course their list was really bad. At least Calipari gets everyone talking about them for a few days.
