Louisville made the right hire because I don’t know many coaches who would make the effort to walk campus and beg students to attend. And you just have to do that now if you’re Louisville to get a decent home environment.

Alright, f*** it; John Calipari put a hard *stop* to Kelly Craft abusing her relationship with UK basketball by USING Oscar Tshiebwe in her failed campaign for Governor, which was always the right thing to do, protecting his player, and *THAT* “burned the bridge.” 🙄 #BBN
Calipari burned bridges with multiple boosters on his own with his actions There are some complaints of his that have some validity. But this definitely isn’t one. He did this completely to himself The new coach will have all the NIL they need
