John Calipari (official thread of impending probation)

I might be wrong but the cheater might not have it so easy with regard to recruiting with Avery Johnson taking the position at Bama. They all can throw money around so I might become a bigger money grab conference. I just think that Johnson might give Cal a little run for his money when it comes to recruiting the top level talent.

Calipari has one of the worst ratios of F4 appearances to national titles, Izzo is the only coach who has a worse ratio that I can think of that's made it several times. But the difference is Cal has had a lot more NBA draft picks on those teams compared to Izzo.
Yep. My point exactly. Year in and year out, Calipari has rosters stacked with NBA players. Every year he's been there, an argument could be made that he has the most talented team in the country. And he has one ring in six years. The same number as Tubby Smith. That points to a guy that can recruit (buy?), but is lacking in the coaching/team building department. There's a reason this guy was a giant flop in the nba.
