Longtime Kentucky coach John Calipari is reportedly in negotiations to potentially leave and take the men's basketball coaching job at Arkansas, according to multiple outlets. Arkansas officials have been in discussions with Calipari about the opening, with reports suggesting he is finalizing a five-year deal.
The 65-year-old Hall of Fame coach has spent the last 15 seasons at Kentucky. Despite calls for his firing following the Wildcats’ recent early exit from the NCAA Tournament, Athletic director Mitch Barnhart confirmed that Calipari would return for his 16th season as head coach.
