3. Is Bryce Drew the next Kentucky basketball coach?

John Calipari isn’t leaving the Kentucky basketball program anytime soon, don’t worry BBN. But I know how much Kentucky fans love debating who will eventually replace Cal once he leaves Kentucky. What does Big Blue Nation think about Bryce Drew? He has a phenomenal recruiting class coming in next season, so he’s a solid recruiter. He has a much inferior team to Kentucky this season, but has coached his team remarkably in each game.

Kentucky brought in a SEC opposing coach, Tubby Smith, to replace Rick Pitino. I certainly think that Bryce Drew is a name to keep an eye on. He’s a potential replacement for Calipari, depending of course on how his tenure at Vandy continues to progress.
