Memphis Could Have Avoided This Mess

In most cases if John Calipari were to stay quiet for this long, someone might want to shove a cell phone under his nose to see if he showed any signs of life.

This is different. There can be only two reasons why he has maintained public silence for such a long period:

1) He’s seriously considering becoming the head coach at NC State, but it’s a tough decision because of the great team he’d be leaving behind;

2) He’s torturing the Memphis administration with a long wait because certain people were foolish enough to believe he couldn’t/wouldn’t leave for another job.

    NY: i agree its just stupid, what is the rush anyway, when is the draft? is there a deadline to declare? i think Ced is a moron right now

    although he cited Sendek leaving as a reason, although that is short cited

    I really think we are being played again for him to get more mony, something just tells me that this is going to get bad. We are going to lose recruits, sed is going pro, and cal won’t come, making it a nother week or 2 before we get a coach, some kids might transfer. this could get bad quick. They need to rap this up and let cal talk to the players and recruits
