Calipari is expected to bring at least some of his recruiting class with him to the Blue Grass State according to Dan Wolken of the Commercial Appeal.
Wolken, who broke the news on ESPN's SportsCenter, said that he expects the split between Calipari and the University of Memphis to not be a pleasant one.
Yeah, I would think that Memphis would be a little upset if their coach decides not only to leave, but take his top-notch recruiting class with him.
Terrible news for Memphis, but great news for Kentucky and the entire Southeastern Conference. Don't expect the SEC to be the sixth best conference next season. Great coaches bring great players into the league, and now three of the NCAA's best coaches hold SEC jobs:
- Florida's Billy Donovan
- Tennessee's Bruce Pearl
- Kentucky's John Calipari
If it's even possible, Tennessee vs. Kentucky has just reached a new level. Within two years it will rival Duke vs. North Carolina.
