Delusional Fans
Coach Cal has the chance to coach the Chicago Bulls. One of the Big Blue Nation told me that Coach Cal would never leave Kentucky, He went on to say that Kentucky basketball is way more popular than the NBA, and that Kentucky can and will pay him more money to stay. Now I know some big blue fans might actually believe that crap, but it couldn't be any further from the truth. First of all, more money is more money, and if you think that UK can pay more than the Bull organization then, you are a delusional fan. Believe it or not big blue fans, the Bulls organization has more money than the University of Kentucky. If they want to flash the dollar signs at Coach Cal he will have to make some hard decisions. You know, like when he decided to leave Umass and Memphis. It only took a few more dollar signs each time. The very same thing could happen now. As far as UK basketball being more popular than the NBA that depends on the person. UK fans watch the wildcats religiously. But people who like the NBA will watch it more whether they are UK fans or not, it doesn't matter. Just like Kentucky Basketball only matter to Kentucky fans. People in Tennessee probably could care less about UK basketball. So to say that Coach Cal would be making a mistake by leaving Kentucky is solely in the eye of the beholder. No matter what, he will still be Coach Cal, he will still be popular and one of the hottest coaches out there, and he will still be paid very well. Personally Big Blue Nation, I think we need to consider how bad that would be if he did leave. Would it really be a bad thing?
