Yeah, I have a feeling that wherever they end up, it is going to be a downgrade from Cal.

Underwood would still be a good hire. But there aren’t many others out there who wouldn’t be a downgrade from Cal.

If you ask Illinois fans they’d probably say Oats, Hurley or Drew

Who else wouldn’t be a downgrade from Cal that’s semi realistic? Bruce Pearl?

Yeah feels like Underwood and Pearl should be the next places they look. After that, maybe Buzz Williams can follow in the footsteps of Billy Gillispie.

Jeromius Tang

EDIT: oh god would that mean Dug to Illinois

Bucky McMillan to Kentucky would be a good option

Nooo, then I would not be able to like him. Bucky Ball is incredible

Let’s ride again, Illini Nation!!

would be an annoyingly good hire

You think? I get he played ball at Kentucky, but I’d be pretty let down if I was a Kentucky fan and we went from Hurley, Oats, Drew, Donovan, Pearl and Underwood to someone who has done a good job at BYU with no tourney success or anything

It would be a funny hire. Run Cal out of town for getting bounced early in the tournament only to hire a coach who also just lost in the first round as a favorite and has never won a tournament game.
