It will make the stories of dedication and perseverance that end with royalty all the more endearing.
At the end of the day, culture and process still wins out. It’s one thing to take a few talents that appear to be in it for the money, but the core of the purpose/motivation/priorities has to be the same. Hard work, Teamwork, and Winning. See Hurley UConn vs Calipari UK.
Makes sense that Drew declined for the sake of his kids. (Among other reasons)I actually think it’s a pretty solid hire. Been a coach for a while, has had some moderate success, runs a fun offense. Barnhart can sell the UK connection to smooth things over while fans are talking themselves into it. If he sucks, they’ll fire him in 3 years and take another run at Drew after his kids are out of high school.
