A simple press release from the university would go a long way in my book.

The fact we haven't seen or heard anything from the university tells me they are still waiting to hear officially from Calipari. The best I can assume at the moment is he is still cruising the city "deciding".

Pitino speaks.
Quote:
Pitino said Tuesday the Memphis coach has the track record to restore some of the luster to college basketball's winningest program.
"He's done a great job at UMass. He's done a great job at Memphis and he would do a great job at Kentucky if that's their pick," Pitino said.

Re: University of Kentucky Basketball
Pitino translation: "How dare they go against my advice. If that's the best they could do, then I guess he will have to suffice."
Re: University of Kentucky Basketball
WMR: That same link has been widely circulated. It is still just referencing a "source close to the situation" within Memphis, right?

A part time custodian at the UK athletic's office told me it was a "done deal." Does that count as reliable or what?;)

Did he have tenure?

His title is "emeritus custodius" so I would assume so. "Done deal."

Interesting....he did not answer to "Clyde" did he?
Re: University of Kentucky Basketball
Alright, now Calipari is starting to tick me off. I had a 3:00pm meeting scheduled with my CPA.
I was REALLY hoping that, before I left, the credits would already rolling on this little soap opera.
Re: University of Kentucky Basketball
For what it is worth, I just got off the phone with one of my UK 'insiders'...
He just left the Craft Center about 10 minutes ago. He says that all of the assistants within the AD were called into Barnhart's office right now for a closed door meeting.
Not trying to create a cliffhanger, but that was all he knew.
Re: University of Kentucky Basketball
Rick Bozich is now claiming he has received confirmation from a friend of Calipari's that he has taken the UK job.
