Original Title: [Discussions] With John Calipari leaving Kentucky to go to Arkansas, what is an example of a surprising move where a head coach left a Blue Blood national champion to go to a significantly worse school?

Kentucky with Calipari won the SEC numerous times, many Final Four appearances, and won a National Championship.

I can’t really think of anything on the level of this. It would be like Urban Meyer leaving Ohio State to go to Northwestern.

Maybe Brian Kelly to LSU? That’s not the same because LSU was already a recent champion with a better situation than Notre Dame.

Lincoln Riley to USC? That’s a Blue Blood-to-Blue Blood lateral move even if it shocked OU fans.
