So I am sure that all of you were patiently waiting for me to do a season follow up but since I don't want to do it because it would be me just reiterating what I have been saying all season long, I decided to write about something that plagues college basketball, John Calipari. If even of you know me and talk basketball with me then you know I hate that man with a passion! I hate him more than the Dude hates Jackie Treehorn! John Calipari is the slimiest of slime balls in college basketball! So I am going to throw out some numbers to you real quick: 3; that is the amount of college programs he has worked with: 3; that is the amount of programs he has taken to the final four: 2; that is the amount of programs, that after he has left, had to deal with NCAA investigations and sanctions. Therefore, 2 of the 3 programs he has/is working at, the 3rd being Kentucky where he is now, has had NCAA violations. Does anyone see a pattern here? Let's do some more numbers shall we? 24; that is the number of McDonald's All American Roster. 4; that is the number of McDonald's All Americans that are going to Kentucky with Calipari. That is the most by one team in this year's game! Last year he got 3 Mcyd's All Americans. Now what is weird is that everyone knows that top recruits like these don't commit somewhere until they know that they can start or are filling a major void in the roster. Since all 3 Kentucky All Americans are Freshman and starters, what void is there to fill? Why have these recruits already committed to Kentucky? $$$$$$$$$!
Lastly, Jay Z visiting the Kentucky locker room after they advanced to the Final Four. Jay Z is probably more to blame than Calipari but Cal didn't have to let him in? Cal probably wanted him to come in to show to possible recruits that they come one year to Kentucky, win for him, they will go pro and meet people like Jay Z. Cal is using the Jay Z stunt as a fricking recruiting tool!
Now I just read that a man from the Kansas ticket scandal just received 46 months in jail for scalping Kansas basketball and football tickets and not claiming the income on his taxes! 4 years in the slammer for scalping?!!! Calipari has taken two schools into NCAA infractions and has caused them serious problems after he has left and for some odd reason he keeps getting jobs! Derrick Rose, who is the man, shouldn't have even been eligible for Memphis basketball but he played. UMASS and Marcus Camby accepted money from agents and their Final Four, just like Memphis', was vacated! Two schools lost Final Four appearances for the time that Calipari was head coach. I ask again, can we see where Kentucky is headed?
