Quotes that stood out
On John Calipari
- "Calipari is the best hire. [His] track record at every stop is the highest level of the sport. ... Arkansas may sneak into his best stop with all the power in reserves and fans. And the backdrop of less attention [will give] him some freedom to breathe. He will enjoy it there more."
- "Only Hall of Fame guy someone hired. Period."
- "Cal stayed too long at Kentucky. He knows that now. But I talked to him on the road, and you can just tell that a weight has been lifted off of him. I'll be shocked if he doesn't go to another Final Four. He's going to win big again. He has everything he needs to win big again."
- "He will be extra-motivated being in the SEC at a school that has more than enough resources to compete at the highest level. No one is better than Cal at reinventing himself and creating the 'us against the world' mentality that will ultimately get him back to the top."
