Lsu If Donovan comes to UK....
Could he be the next Rupp? Seriously, just look at what he doing with Florida, Pitino told Billy not to take the job because it was a dump and a dead end job with no hope of succeeding...now Florida is looking to go to there 3rd final four in 7 years, and possibly winning their 2nd National Championship. Now imagine him at Kentucky with all the resources they have, could he have the success that Rupp had and have a chance to make a huge name for himself more than he would in Gainesville?

Rich Brooks, I think you should coach the basketball team too!!! I think you'd win at least 5 national titles!

Nope. UK fans would run him out of town when he didn't win the NC. Oh, and what resources? And, he wouldn't be a big name in Kentucky, like he is in Florida. He'd just be a comparison to Rupp. In Gainesville, he is Rupp.

Come on, that logic doesn't hold water anymore.

Let's change your post to "him" referring to Nick Saban:

Nope. Alabama fans would run him out of town when he didn't win the NC. Oh, and what resources? And, he wouldn't be a big name in Alabama, like he was at LSU. He'd just be a comparison to Bear. In Baton Rouge, he was Bear.
See how your words don't hold water when you apply it to another example?

"Paul Finebaum has done more to change the face of sports journalism in the state of Alabama than any other individual," Auburn athletic director David Housel has said.

Boosters would have run Billy out of town after the early NCAA exits against Manhattan and the other school....I can't remember right now.
