Former HOF coach Pitino is about to make a last run.
Could HOF Calipari do the same?
UK will be fine, we've had more coaches win a title than most teams have in total.
Where do you think he'd be better suited?

If he left UK for another school it would mean that he still wants to coach. If he wants to coach he could be successful anywhere.

No. pitino is a stud of a coach. Cal just recruits and can’t coach

Kentucky has paid players forever, now everyone can legally do it and the playing field has evened up. Now the teams with the best coaches will be winning. Who knows, maybe after Calipari retires Kentucky will be relevant again in March.
 
Do you think he recruited his way into the HOF?
Sorry, but that's always been the dumbest take of Calipari.
He has severely underachieved with the talent he has had. It’s not even a question. There is a reason he never went back to the nba. His only strength was neutralized

Do you think Jabari Smith would have won a title playing under Calipari?
 
Haha, to say the least. The guy couldn't handle the bourbon and was f'n players' girlfriends.

What changed 2 years later then besides Derrick rose having someone take his act for him?
Us losing and being desperate. Let's call it what it is.

NCAA didn't do us any favors and we didn't want to risk it.
The Rose stuff came out afterwards. Forde and Thamel was hellbent on trying to win a Pulitzer like Tipton had done years prior.
 
I remember working down here, I have some connections here, and Calipari was offering Fedex jobs to parents for recruits.
This was when I didn't like him because he was a threat.
