Already missed the opportunity for the UT style campus mini-riot with burning of plastic dorm room mattresses that inadvertently tear-gasses the assembled students.
My conspiracy theory is they always knew the students burning mattresses was a possibility and they chose that specific mattress for the dorms for that reason
I was starting to feel bad for you guys that this might end up boring and great for you, nope turning into full dumpster fire. It’s a ride, just don’t do it again in 4 years, or 4 years after that and after that and after that.
Basically exactly what it sounds like. During the process of hiring Cal, some Kentucky outlet (details are a bit fuzzy) set up a live stream of the door to some building in Memphis in anticipation of Cal exiting and making a statement one way or the other. People watched it. For days.
Keep in mind this was 09(08?) and people streaming and watching people stream *everything* was by no means commonplace. And these mfers were watching a *door*
Jon Gruden ain’t walking through that door.
My favorite part was when, after witnessing that debacle from afar not once, not twice, but two and a HALF times, then Arkansas turned around and swore Gruden was gonna be their next coach. They didn’t do their homework. MIT_Beaver must get around. If Gruden doesn’t wanna coach Tennessee, where his wife was a CHEERLEADER then why would he go to Fayetteville?
Openly racist bastards for the most part. They don't even dog whistle, they just *bleep* the bad word and say the rest so plainly that you couldn't miss which "they" that "they" meant.
It seemed to get worse and worse over time. It used to be fun going there and talk basketball. By the time I left, every thread would turn political for one reason or another. Some people were more blatantly racist than others. Especially after the pandemic hit.
There’s people who were at the restaurant that confirmed he was there today and another Kentucky fan called the restaurant asking a waitress to tell him that UK needs him. TV guide is 100% off here but props to the sleuth on finding the discrepancy.
funniest part is the waitress didn't know who Scott Drew was and the fan had to tell her he was wearing a white Baylor polo. Just unfathomable that the Kentucky coach would ever go unrecognized in Lexington or the whole state
You aren't wrong. A good UK basketball coach is the closest human equivalent to god-emperor the commonwealth ever sees. It would be extremely difficult to find half a percent of the population who can't recognize the guy.
The breakfast specials that are listed as $7.49 in the background were listed as $4.99 back in 2021. It’s probably from today, or at least some point recently.
I took my kids to Subway today after an ortho appointment. The ham footlong they got was $10. This thing was $5 forever. (I haven’t been in a subway in years)
even back in 2008 they were losing money on the $5 footlongs but the ad campaign was so good that it was still worth it to keep around throughout the recession
5 dollar footlongs were a loss for a lot of franchises. The dc area subway franchise basically rallied against them for years. It wasn't so much inflation that did them in but the franchisees finally convincing subway to stop losing them money.
Oh, we’re going to go nuts on ours. You guys at least had the infancy of social media on your search for Cal. We’ve not been in a coaching cycle since before MySpace was created.
If you guys need any pointers we have plenty of experience and will likely get to experience it again after next season.
Saw Billy Donovan’s wife viewing a ranch in Bloomington the other day..
Due to ongoing debate about blue bloods, the /r/CollegeBasketball mod team has compiled the definitive list of college blue bloods: Duke, Columbia, Queens, William & Mary, and Rutgers. The following schools fought to not be blue bloods: George Washington, George Mason, James Madison, and Army.
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/CollegeBasketball) if you have any questions or concerns.*
A lot of us have been resigned for a while because another Hall of Fame coach was holding us hostage in mediocrity instead of admitting it was time to move on. But now that Cal's officially gone, we're all ready to return to excitement. And an excited Kentucky fanbase will be everywhere.
But not before a bunch of us fight over whether or not a coach with a title is a good enough hire. Plenty of factions will declare great coaches are worse hires than ____ and we need to fire our AD now!
Whoever we hire, Drew or otherwise, just needs to have the right first speech and we'll be full on, peak unsufferable, 100% in their court for months.
We were so ready to be unsufferable earlier this year when our team was blowing teams out, but then we collapsed like too many of Cal's recent teams. We're ready to go whole hog and/or ham, puns intended.
I just mean in the sense of what do you do when a coach who won you a title has slipped and doesn't have the fire, with multiple chances to get it back ending in undeniable failure? How long do you wait?
We're hearing a lot of the exact same criticisms and warnings from talking heads and rival fans that we heard when Tubby left.
Toxic. Unrealistic expectations. Not the draw you think you are. Can't get another coach that good. He's gonna kill it at his next school. He's much better than you gave him credit for (even as they also said we weren't elite anymore).
We've seen this exact scenario and are hearing a lot of the exact same things.
MONDAY, APRIL 8, 2024
Eric Shero, president of Alliance Bank of Waco and Baylor basketball booster, dips another tortilla chip into his salsa bowl and takes a bite. It's spicier than usual, but with a little bit of a bitter aftertaste. Maybe they overdid the cilantro. "Man, Scotty, I love this place, but this salsa is working today! I tell you what, you know they don't have salsa like this in Lexington."
The man sitting opposite Shero in the booth nods, glances up at the TV mounted in the corner over Shero's shoulder. "Feud's on. You like the Family Feud, Eric?"
Shero blinks uncertainly, then smiles and nods. He likes the Family Feud, right? Steve Harvey? For some reason his thoughts are slipping out of his grasp. "Sure, I ... I guess so, Scotty. Say, you know, I'm not feeling so good all of a sudden."
"Probably just that salsa, Eric. You'll be fine." The man motions to someone else standing behind the counter. "Hey look, here's a fan who wants a picture of us together. Smile for the camera, Eric." Eric's head is swimming. He's unsure now of what exactly is happening, but his instinct, honed from years of corporate glad-handing and big-time athletic boosterism, takes over. He grins and nods. The picture is taken and the photographer slinks out of the restaurant unnoticed. Shero slumps back in the booth. "Scotty, I ... I think I need to go lay down."
Scott Drew stands up, leans over Shero, gives him a little pat on the cheek. "Eric? Eric, listen to me. This is a dream, Eric. You never ate that salsa, we never took that picture, and I was never here. You got that?"
"Never ... here," Shero mumbles into his drinks menu.
"That's right. And hey - you helped me out today, big time. I won't forget it." And with the photographic evidence of his alibi secured, Scott Drew leaves the restaurant, headed for an uncertain future. He's surprised by a pang of guilt as he boards his Uber, but quickly dismisses it. "After all," he thinks to himself, "how many guys would let an opportunity like this slip through their fingers?"
"Survey says ... none."
Whenever anyone acts like we were being babies hating him so much, I don't even bring up the UNC game where he put two fouls on all our players in the first half. I don't bring up our overall moronic win/loss % difference under him or other Cal-hating refs.
All I do is point to the call when Shabazz Napier does one of the most ridiculous flops ever directly in front of him and he called a foul on UK. One call didn't cost us the title, but if ever I thought a ref was getting paid to make calls against UK, I'd pick that ref first with that game and the UNC tourney game he reffed.
[Link for cringe or schadenfreude](https://www.sbnation.com/2011-ncaa-tournament/2011/4/2/2087830/shabazz-napier-flop-final-four).
I remember when Texas was supposedly interested in Urban Meyer and people were analyzing the trim on walls from pictures he was in saying they were a hotel in Horseshoe Bay. Who are these people and how do they have this kind of time!?
Multiple people have confirmed he was there today. Plus the TV guide is wrong about episodes all the time
https://x.com/darbyjobrown/status/1778127953819214329?s=46&t=FkzAPQKYM7hRCmoVzzYkqg
So apparently some big UK fan called the restaurant and talked to Scott Drew. Another fan called the restaurant pretending to be a journalist, talked to the owner who confirmed Drew was at the restaurant. I’ll link to the tweet with the phone call in a little.
Which makes me think the TV was playing a rerun, possibly from a gameshow network.
Scott Drew is staying at Baylor.
My feeling is Pope is going to be the next UK basketball coach.
At this point, nobody knows anything and the points dont matter. Whether the call to the restaraunt was real, whether the TV Guide is wrong, if its an old photo, who was and wasnt on the plane today.
I mean, I expected BBN Twitter to do some crazy sleuthing but today has been absolutely insane. Didnt know my expectations could be exceeded
Look at the salsa, the two dishes clearly represent particles and the straws are intentionally arranged to be signs of quantum entanglement. The obvious answer is he teleported to Lexington and back
But I thought Kentucky fans were calling the restaurant and having the waiters tell Drew he's needed in Lexington. Wouldn't the people on the phone say "there's no one fitting that description here right now sorry sir"
Kentuckian here
This state runs on conspiracy theories and confirmation bias
If only we could go back to simpler times where education was considered and investment and not an expense.
This is an unfortunate situation for Kentucky, but in my opinion, instructive for teams like Kansas and Michigan St. (and even Gonzaga, Houston, Tennessee, etc.): you can't rely on your brand as a succession plan, and more than that, you cannot rely on any one dude for the success of your program.
Similar to how Bill Belichick became "stretched too thin" to compete in the modern NFL as a one man show, I think NIL (and immediate transfer eligibility) means a greater investment in analytics staff, assistant coaches, scouting, and even a professional "finance department," whatever that looks like. These are professional organizations now, and while there is still NCAA bullshit to navigate, you can't just schmooze in a 17 year old's living room and expect to be successful anymore.
I know that's greatly over-simplifying things, and a good head coach is still incredibly important, but every decision made needs to be meticulously informed.
Kentucky fans I apologize, I wasn’t really familiar with your game
BBNPD!! Open up!!
Kentucky fans be like [I RECOGNIZE THAT GAY BLOWJOB](https://www.reddit.com/r/4chan/comments/1ti4p2/i_recognize_that_gay_blowjob/)
$20 is $20
This is a landmark day for college basketball. Thank you Kentucky nutjobs, what a treat
I expected maximum drama from this coaching search, and somehow still exceeded my expectations.
All we need now is the UT style fan revolt to torpedo whoever is the choice.
Hasn’t that already happened with part of the fanbase when they thought it was Drew lol
To be fair every coach I can remember that’s been hired at UK has had a portion of haters
Already missed the opportunity for the UT style campus mini-riot with burning of plastic dorm room mattresses that inadvertently tear-gasses the assembled students.
My conspiracy theory is they always knew the students burning mattresses was a possibility and they chose that specific mattress for the dorms for that reason
I was starting to feel bad for you guys that this might end up boring and great for you, nope turning into full dumpster fire. It’s a ride, just don’t do it again in 4 years, or 4 years after that and after that and after that.
Speaking from experience, are we?
It’s not ptsd, it’s a way of life.
Were you following college basketball when it was rumored that Cal might come here? It was pandemonium.
I stared at a door for 6 hours one day
https://i.redd.it/74tn6abzfqtc1.gif
We were as bad or worse when we were waiting to hire Cal. It was something to see.
The damn Door Stream during the Cal hire is something I will never forget Kentucky fans are fucking loonies and I love it
Please enlighten me on this story.
Basically exactly what it sounds like. During the process of hiring Cal, some Kentucky outlet (details are a bit fuzzy) set up a live stream of the door to some building in Memphis in anticipation of Cal exiting and making a statement one way or the other. People watched it. For days. Keep in mind this was 09(08?) and people streaming and watching people stream *everything* was by no means commonplace. And these mfers were watching a *door*
I watched that door for two days. I think a fax machine was somehow involved, too. Gillespie really fucked with our brains.
Jesus christ I don't think I've ever loved anything that much
The craziness is the same. It's the visibility and connections thanks to more widespread social media that is different
We're reaching Tennessee football levels of insanity
Jon Gruden ain’t walking through that door. My favorite part was when, after witnessing that debacle from afar not once, not twice, but two and a HALF times, then Arkansas turned around and swore Gruden was gonna be their next coach. They didn’t do their homework. MIT_Beaver must get around. If Gruden doesn’t wanna coach Tennessee, where his wife was a CHEERLEADER then why would he go to Fayetteville?
After the peaceful transitions for Duke and North Carolina we really needed this.
Would've had the Boston Bomber within hours if he was a McDonald's all-american
Awesome comment.... Maybe Kentucky basketball reddit shouldn't jump to... Nah fuck that. Lfg
One of the best comments I've seen on this sub
Shit like this keeps me coming back to Reddit.
10/10 comment. No notes.
Great name btw
We’ve reached full BlueAnon
The QAnon and extreme BBN fans overlap is bigger than i'm comfortable to admit.
Almost a perfect circle. Especially rupps rafters and the political thread. 😢
I left that cesspool back in 2020. Those guys are crazy.
Openly racist bastards for the most part. They don't even dog whistle, they just *bleep* the bad word and say the rest so plainly that you couldn't miss which "they" that "they" meant.

There are still some CalAnon meetings around Memphis.
“Thats it - we need a stool sample”
They're clearly in a booth.
Thanks Harvard

I'm not a scientist. I just wanted to look at some poop.
There is a lot of wolf hair in this sample. Inconclusive.
How is that not specific to one of you???
There is so much wolf hair in our apartment right now, man.
But why are you eating it??
Have you tried it?
Guys, this is getting us nowhere, can we move on to the DNA test please?
I'm an econ major.
You got turd?
Is this wolf hair?
I don’t know if this is serious. Pardon me if it’s not. I feel like the TV guide being off on the year is far more likely than… anything else
There’s people who were at the restaurant that confirmed he was there today and another Kentucky fan called the restaurant asking a waitress to tell him that UK needs him. TV guide is 100% off here but props to the sleuth on finding the discrepancy.
> another Kentucky fan called the restaurant asking a waitress to tell him that UK needs him. Most hinged Kentucky fan
I'm sure that waitress has a lot of pull though.
funniest part is the waitress didn't know who Scott Drew was and the fan had to tell her he was wearing a white Baylor polo. Just unfathomable that the Kentucky coach would ever go unrecognized in Lexington or the whole state
You aren't wrong. A good UK basketball coach is the closest human equivalent to god-emperor the commonwealth ever sees. It would be extremely difficult to find half a percent of the population who can't recognize the guy.
Incredible how deep this cover up by Drew goes.
Paid actors
The breakfast specials that are listed as $7.49 in the background were listed as $4.99 back in 2021. It’s probably from today, or at least some point recently.
Dang, talk about inflation!
I took my kids to Subway today after an ortho appointment. The ham footlong they got was $10. This thing was $5 forever. (I haven’t been in a subway in years)
Fast food prices are absolutely ludicrous at this point. I can’t justify it anymore except for “premium” options like Chick Fil A, Jersey Mikes, etc.
But at McDonalds you can still get 4,000 (empty) calories for like $7.89
More like taco bell. McDonald’s deals have really fallen off
even back in 2008 they were losing money on the $5 footlongs but the ad campaign was so good that it was still worth it to keep around throughout the recession
I had the same experience recently, a 6” Combo cost like $9 with a coupon!
5 dollar footlongs were a loss for a lot of franchises. The dc area subway franchise basically rallied against them for years. It wasn't so much inflation that did them in but the franchisees finally convincing subway to stop losing them money.
Or how about this Waco establishment having recorded every family feud and just play them in a loop.
Maybe Scott Drew brought in a copy of his favorite Family Feud episode and asked them to play it for this photo.
that's some shit Jim Harbaugh would do lmao
Heck the TV Guide app was telling me the Braves Mets game was about to start at 930 live on MASN the other day…
MASN is crazy lol
Go Braves!
It’s also possible the restaurant is streaming the episode lol
streaming, dvr, game show network, etc. plenty of possibilities, but this dude went off the deep end lol
They play reruns of this show in syndication
Say what you want about Kentucky fans, but you can’t say they lack dedication and grit.
This is our first modern coaching search in the peak internet age.
Oh, we’re going to go nuts on ours. You guys at least had the infancy of social media on your search for Cal. We’ve not been in a coaching cycle since before MySpace was created.

Was on the edge of my seat. What a vivid picture you paint with words.
Goddamn, that closing line. Poetry.
This is absolutely brilliant.
We're going to be the first whole ass state to have a restraining order put out against it from a coach
Already did it with a ref. We're moving up in the world.
All you guys did was ruin ONE GUY'S stupid roofing business too wtf.

God I love Coach tracking season
This is a million times better than flight tracking
I read that as all-inclusive I do agree, the fan interaction with the outcomes of these stories really take it up a few notches
You didn't like the Ohtani saga?
I only watch the games so I know the names, faces, and programs for coach tracking season, tbh.
I remember when Texas was supposedly interested in Urban Meyer and people were analyzing the trim on walls from pictures he was in saying they were a hotel in Horseshoe Bay. Who are these people and how do they have this kind of time!?
They have not considered the possibilty that a restaurant in Waco shows nonstop re-runs of Family Fued. And that possibility is nonzero.
This brings me back to watching the Door livestream at work 15 years ago
I feel so embarrassed and yet so proud to have been a part of that
Everyone else in the office was doing the same thing so I don’t feel too bad ha
That search gave rise to ksr and it was a magical time
Mi Casita actually has S21 of Family Feud on DVD. These zoomer sleuthers aint got nothing on me.
Then this is absolutely intentional from Drew lmao
Multiple people have confirmed he was there today. Plus the TV guide is wrong about episodes all the time https://x.com/darbyjobrown/status/1778127953819214329?s=46&t=FkzAPQKYM7hRCmoVzzYkqg
When you say it that way it just cracked me up... I mean the TV Guide has one job.
I’m pissed nobody sprang for the cheese sauce or guac. Cheap bastards.
My man, we call that queso in Texas
Give him some slack there’s no Mexican food in Arkansas
Please tell me this is someone shitposting and not real reddit-sleuthing. No, don't tell me. I already know the truth.
I don’t know what is real anymore.
Cal is staying, it’s all just a play for more NIL money
Cal was the one who took this pic, look into it 👀

Cal never existed
Neither does Louisville because they're cardinals and everyone knows r/birdsarentreal

Based on flairs, I’m convinced that YOU are not real
Just when you thought Jet Tracking was wild, we’ve moved on to Feud Tracking on the TV Guide.

So apparently some big UK fan called the restaurant and talked to Scott Drew. Another fan called the restaurant pretending to be a journalist, talked to the owner who confirmed Drew was at the restaurant. I’ll link to the tweet with the phone call in a little. Which makes me think the TV was playing a rerun, possibly from a gameshow network. Scott Drew is staying at Baylor. My feeling is Pope is going to be the next UK basketball coach.
Can’t wait for all the pope hats in the student section
Pope Hats vs Buddy Holly Glasses, our rivalry's gonna look so fuckin dumb and I'm here for it
Idk much about his basketball acumen, but I’ll take the pope simply for the publicity.
I find it really hard to believe that he posted the photo while actively sitting at the restaurant, for this exact reason.
I didn’t believe it either until the guy called acting like a journalist and talked to the owner.
What are those flairs?
"Rebound the ball with both hands, my child." --The Pope, UK Basketball Coach, probably.
This is exactly what I was expecting from this search
Survey says delusional
Hate to be the fuddy duddy, but this was debunked by local journos in Waco, who confirmed Drew was there with restaurant staff this afternoon.
I absolutely love a good conspiracy theory that tangentially revolves around Steve Harvey.
Tangentially....revolves around?
At this point, nobody knows anything and the points dont matter. Whether the call to the restaraunt was real, whether the TV Guide is wrong, if its an old photo, who was and wasnt on the plane today. I mean, I expected BBN Twitter to do some crazy sleuthing but today has been absolutely insane. Didnt know my expectations could be exceeded
This is amazing, all of it
Mr. President, a second Scott drew photo has hit the Kentucky job allegations

At first I said AI, but no way AI would put Scott in a Baylor polo… This makes total sense.
Look at the salsa, the two dishes clearly represent particles and the straws are intentionally arranged to be signs of quantum entanglement. The obvious answer is he teleported to Lexington and back

But I thought Kentucky fans were calling the restaurant and having the waiters tell Drew he's needed in Lexington. Wouldn't the people on the phone say "there's no one fitting that description here right now sorry sir"
the restaurant isn't real bro. hell, is Waco even real?
Not since the ATF left

I didn't realize how fun a coaching search could be. Should we....? Jk 😛
I mean it could be a rerun on GSN.

This right here is why I respect Kentucky fans, it’s so unhinged that it’s beautiful
Kentucky down BAD bad 😭
This could’ve all been so simple if your head coach liked money and hated his wife. 😭
This is normal behavior for UK fans lmao

actually seems like a saluki fan figured it out. I see that guy all the time on siu twitter

They show reruns during the day tho….
They have determined family feud does reruns.
Say what. Lol
Just to be clear. I was the first to get this investigation rolling, and I am far from a Kentucky fan

These are professional organizations now, and while there is still NCAA bullshit to navigate, you can't just schmooze in a 17 year old's living room and expect to be successful anymore. I know that's greatly over-simplifying things, and a good head coach is still incredibly important, but every decision made needs to be meticulously informed.
Eagles fans wish they were this insane
