Earlier Tuesday, information broke that John Calipari would stay the top coach of Kentucky Basketball.
The person largely liable for this resolution is athletics director Mitch Barnhart.
So late Tuesday evening, Barnhart launched an announcement concerning the resolution on Twitter.
“As we usually do on the finish of each season, Coach Calipari and I’ve had conversations concerning the route of our males’s basketball program, and I can verify that he’ll return for his sixteenth season as our head coach,” wrote Barnhart.
Barnhart was Kentucky’s AD when Calipari first arrived in 2009. He additionally gave the top coach a contract extension in 2019 that, even 5 years later, would carry a buyout of over $33 million if Calipari have been fired.
It’s no secret that Calipari and Barnhart don’t have the best relationship, one which not often sees them collectively in any setting. Will that change going ahead?
That’s simply one in every of many questions dealing with the way forward for Kentucky.
