If people are still upset a guy took a better paying job, at a better school, with more basketball success FOURTEEN YEARS LATER, the problem is them.

We've had 2 coaches take us to the championship game. Both left for better paying/better programs. One is still beloved and has a banner in the rafters. One will NEVER be welcome here. It matters HOW you leave--not THAT you leave. The problem is NOT us.

It's a business. What did you want him to do?

Don’t be an as$hole on your way out

Who cares? Most people hate Cal, Tiger fans or not.
Most Tiger fans hate him. It’s not gonna change.

Yeah, that's the issue that alot of you don't and will never get. It's not how he left, it's the fact that he tried to destroy the place on his way out the door.

Yeah Ok, I guess I was wrong about Cal treating Willie badly but I harbor no true animosity towards Calipari. His choice was a simple one, I didn't care for the way he transitioned but that's ancient history.

Anyway, I'm glad for WK.
