06:22 AM ET 05.29 | John Calipari, who left Memphis for Kentucky in March, was not named in the NCAA allegations and informed Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhardt and the search committee about them before he was hired. The Memphis investigation could have far-reaching consequences at Kentucky. Rest assured, the NCAA will take a much closer look at the Wildcats' three prized recruits - point guard John Wall, forward DeMarcus Cousins and point guard Eric Bledsoe - who are all still trying to qualify academically.

Calipari looks like a sleezy fellow. Just can't trust a man who oils his hair like that.

Even in interviews the way he talks and his mannerisms are just shady. And, how hard is it to qualify to play sports in college? Gees guys. Kentucky is going to end up like Indiana. Couldn't happen to a more delusional fan base.

Sounds kinda like the old Barry Switzer academic standard at Oklahoma. No athlete was allowed to receive a letter in any sport unless (s)he could readily identify which letter it was.

Basketball, once my favorite sport, is covered with slime and sleaze at every level. College Bball is a farce, NBA is a walking graffiti wall of tats and ego. Calipari is a symptom, not a cause. He went to Kentucky with a game plan of plausible deniability and UK bought it because they desire plausible deniability. UK is the Auburn of payoff's and money under the table in the SEC. Kentucky's credibility left the building a long time ago. One-year wonders have corrupted the game and created a challenge for coaches that has no solution. Success kills more programs than it helps.
I agree with POST # 1...Scholar Athletes...now that's an oxymoron when applied to the NBA's crooked farm system, NCAA B'ball. You have to be a second-tier prospect now'days to have to go to college first anyway.
The buffet table is set for the forseeable future....recalling EE Cummings..."there is some **** I will not eat."
Step away from the table if you don't like it.
It is what it is.

Still trying to qualify academically??? It is June, of their freakin SENIOR YEAR. What the hell are these parents and counselors doing??? No wonder coach's are slimy, the people who are supposed to care for these kids, are 10 times worse.

Whew....And we wanted to keep him so bad.
Trust me, his legacy will be smoking corpses, and ruined careers.
Mitch Barnhart, get that resume ready.

Ha!! Typical UK. Can't win without cheating. Thought they left that behind when Pitino had to save them, but I guess old habits die hard. LOL!!! And I love how the UK fans are in denial - also very typical. This couldn't reflect on Calipari, right? Go ask UMass. Ha.
