Huggy officially resigns

[Sean Miller Fan]

Top 5 roster? Why are they absent from most early Top 25 polls?

I dont know this guy but he is a metrics nerd and projected WVU #1

How do the major leagues outside the Pac-12 shape up at the moment?

Yes, a coach who makes 10 mill plus and has an ironclad contract that makes sure he collects a HUGE buyout if fired is gonna look for a landing spot from the best job in college basketball in his mid 60’s. You’ve never posted once where I thought you had any idea about college basketball coaches.

He has a lifetime position as Kentucky. He’s not leaving voluntarily for WVU. It’s one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen posted on a message board.

Nobody said anything about Calipari leaving voluntarily. Duh. Of course he isn't going to walk away from millions.

His buyout after 2023-24 is roughly $40 million. That's doable, and they would probably try to negotiate that down a little.

His "lifetime" contract only runs through 29, and the ambassador role only pays a million a year. I don't think you realize just how much Cal is despised at UK. It's hard to see him wanting to stay in that role in a place where he is so vehemently hated.

Even he realizes it's crazy

"The most controversial outcome from this entire projection is having West Virginia as the #1 team in the country. There are plenty of early top-25 rankings without them on it and it’s not an unreasonable stance."

WVU must have some incredible and stupid boosters. They are going to pay big dollars for Huggins replacement and staff. Then they are going to continue to stuff money into the NIL association. Then they are going to have to come up with another 10 million to get rid of the football coach and his staff. Then they will need even more money to pay off the new football coach who is going to fail also.

Because people see WVU and cant have them Top 5 or Top 10. They have Top 5 talent. And his metric shows that though I can't say I know what his metric is. They have maybe the highest payroll in the NCAA so its not crazy to think they are Top 5

Don't see wvu in this one that came out today .
Thought they were supposed to be some great team next season.

WTE Top 25: Duke or Kansas at No. 1 for the final edition?

With less than a month to go 'til the season begins, we're calling it: Kansas remains No. 1. The rest of the field sees some swapping around, but no new faces.

wvu boosters aren't real smart, obviously. They've got their priorities all screwed up.

They don't have Top 5 talent. Not even close.
