As long as the Commonwealth can still spare a few thousand to keep me on the payroll, I'm cool with it. :tongue2:

Calipari deal with Kentucky 'close, but it's not quite done'
Kentucky officials expect John Calipari to accept an offer to become their program's next basketball coach, a source close to the school told CBSSports.com on Monday. The source said UK believes it could introduce Calipari within the next 48 hours, that athletic director Mitch Barnhart is merely waiting for the "Yes" he believes is imminent, barring an unsuspected hang-up in the final stages of negotiations.
"It's close, but it's not quite done," one source on the Memphis side told CBSSports.com. "Kentucky is pretty sure it's done, but you know Cal, he could change his mind at the last minute."
A source said Calipari has the guidelines of the offer in place, and that "his people are reviewing it." The source said the offer would make Calipari the highest-paid college coach in America, though details remain sketchy. A separate source said the Memphis assistants are already touching base with recruits to make sure they'd jump to the SEC with them, and a different source said Memphis freshman Wesley Witherspoon would likely follow Calipari to Kentucky.

Kevin Warren is an ass
I know this is supposed to be a free enterprise country but the sums of money that universities are throwing at coaches seems to be getting out of hand or, should I say, it is out of hand. Maybe they ought to talk about this in the Political Discussion forum:)
I mean share the wealth:(

By the time he's done with local, state, federal, property and sales taxes, he'll wind up "sharing" over half of it. Good enough for ya? :)
He's like a one man stimulus package for Kentucky.

It's odd, because in football I can't think of a Pryor case of this occurring.
