Kentucky and AD Mitch Barnhart have reportedly shifted their focus to UConn head coach Dan Hurley now that Scott Drew has withdrawn his name from consideration the UK coaching search.
Early reports indicate that Kentucky is willing to offering Hurley more than $11-12 million per year to come to Lexington.
The infamous plane that is owned by the Craft family made its way to New York City this morning.
As I have said from moment one (despite other reports), there have been 3 top choices for UK. One removed himself from consideration early this morning. UK was prepared for that possibility. As of this moment, The other 2 are in play
And one is being courted hard today
