Ken Howlett of SeaofBlue.com suggests it as a possibility. Seems Scott Padgett's boss at Manhattan College has been fired and Scott may be out of a job. From Ken: “It sure looks that way now that his head coach at Manhatten College has been shown the door; a 6-25 record tends to have that effect on a coach. Surely Padgett will find gainful employment … maybe as UK's new Director of Basketball Operations now that Martin Newton has become the AD at his alma mater, Samford.”
Walter Cornett, of Glendale, Kentucky, is the owner and operator of Walter's Wildcat World. He founded WildcatWorld.com in 1998 making it one of the oldest Kentucky basketball fan sites in operation today.
