Message: [QUOTE="HoustonCuse, post: 1746002, member: 87"] Serious question: Is an NBA job less work than a college job? There are more games and the season is longer, but there is no recruiting. I'm not sure how that balances out in terms of number of days on the road in a year, etc. The impression is that recruiting is easy for Cal, but I'm sure he has to put a ton of effort and travel into it. Maybe he loves that part of the job and it is a perk, but maybe he hates it and would be glad to be rid of it. There is also the drama of keeping players eligible and out of the newspaper. This must be a pretty extensive undertaking at a place like UK (or any bigtime college) that would absolutely have to get old after a while. You know these 19-22 year olds in their first experience away from home, first time being big celebrities, first time with a lot of money to throw around are getting into all sorts of foolishness that has to be smoothed over.
