Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 2441938, member: 250"] This smacks of revisionist history to me, save for this one nugget of truth; he was the reason so many coaches (he had years of revolving door assistants) and players left. Kentucky's program was not about the players for Mitchell; it was all about him and his drive to the top. He tried to lean on assistants to create an offense he could not, yet he interfered with what they tried to accomplish. The year before the debacle he had one of the most seasoned and respected assistants in college ball join the staff and he departed at the end of that year. Mitchell tried to burn him and he burned Mitchell back and it boiled down to Mitchell not doing his job and not tolerating help from his assistants. he got too full of himself and lost his way.
