Did Mitch think of Billy D to NBA?

Did Mitch have the foresight to see this move coming?

Did Billy D shot straight with Mitch and tell him, "I'd like to try the NBA soon, so lets not waste each others time?"

CBC was hired in <
than 24 hours after Billy D "turned" UK down. We will never know for sure, but looking back it appears CBC might have been Mitch's #1 man all along.

Mitch knew he'd be crucified if he did not give the appearance he "tried" to lure Billy D to UK. After Billy D "officially" turned UK down the wheels moved pretty fast getting CBC at UK!!

This is something I've thought before, but a thread on a messeage board brought it back it up. What do you think?

I totally agree with you. I think Mitch might have had hint that Billy D was/would be pursuing NBA opportunities and looking to sign the next head coach of UK of course we don't want to sign a coach of Billy Ds worth and lose him almost immediately thereafter, so you have a very valid and interesting thought here. Either Billy D told Mitch straight up or Mitch had the foresight given his back to back successes. Mitch mighta saw something like this coming. It's interesting to think about.
