Kentucky is not North Carolina. They are not Duke. They are not Kansas. They are a very solid D1 program, along the same lines as Texas, UCLA, Florida, etc. This guy won you a freaking NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, took you to the dance every single year, and you think you deserve more.

This is very, very wrong

so is not having UCLA in the top echelon

Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA, and Duke are the elite of the elite

I agree with this 100%. When I think of the 5 top elite schools in college bball, these are the first 5 to come to my mind.

I will be surprised, however, if a couple of the elite coaches Kentucky tries to hire don't turn them down. It wouldn't shock me at all if their coaching search turns into a circus comparable to the Nebraska football coaching search after they fired Solich.
