If Texas A&M (which has as much or more $ than any college in the country) can lose their coach, then any school can lose their coach. Losing coaches is part of being a big-time basketball program.

Just wait until Grant McCasland gets offered a top tier SEC or Big 10 job. It is going to happen and when it does, he will be riding the next dirt storm out of Lubbock. 

The coaches and players will come and go, but can the program sustain winning?

Yeah but he left. Arkansas and Kentucky lost their head coaches last season too. My point is that no matter where you are on the college basketball revenue hierarchy, you are going to lose your coach sometimes. Good programs keep winning. Are we a good program now? I’m still buying season tickets and making my small monthly donation to NIL so I hope so.

But none of that has much to do about monetary hierarchy. Uk, ark, and atm can money whip. The narrative you're creating is trying to group us up with them. They drive Bugattis. We drive a Honda civic.

Doesn’t matter what you drive. Can you get there?
Getting there for UK, Ark, A&M is probably Sweet 16 or better. For us, getting there is 20 wins, Top 4 conference regular season, advancing a few rounds in conference championship and making a postseason tournament. 
Every few years those schools expect to contend for a national title. Every few years I expect our team to make the NCAAs (and maybe win a game or two).
We will all be delighted if the new coach can deliver that.
