Too funny, Calipari goes into Rupp

[Sett1997]

And kicks their ass after they fired him! Couldn't happen to a better fan base. They booed him on the intro!
Arkansas vs Kentucky.

I love stories like this. Good for him! Booed him on his intro after a NC and multiple final fours.
Love it!

Didn’t he leave on his own before getting axed?

Still a pretty solid statement win

I thought they fired him. Did he leave under an ultimatum, resign or be fired?

I think he was 'NIL'd by the Walton/WalMart money to Arkansas. Nothing more, nothing less.

But that was just the impression I got of it when the news and discussions of it came out.

I think it was more of an Alford situation. Got out a year before they asked him to leave. Like if Fran took another job in a month.

Thank you guys for clarifying. I loved the beatdown! Players stepped up for him big time!!

Not sure why anyone would want to take sides between the sleazy Kentucky program and their sleazy ex coach.
