Mitch Barnhart Confirms John Calipari Is Staying For This Reasons As Reactions Trails This Update…
What a day Tuesday was for everyone.
First, we had some great Women’s Basketball news. Kenny Brooks is headed to Lexington to coach the Women’s Basketball team.
It’s been a rough couple of years under Kyra Elzy, who led the Cats to back-to-back losing seasons, so Mitch and the team decided it was time for a change.
Brooks has 22 years of head coaching experience with tenures at Virginia Tech and JMU, amassing a 180-82 record and even taking the Hokies to his first Final Four last season.
This is exactly what the women’s team needed.
Later last night, Calipari had his meeting with Mitch Barnhart and it was reported that he’s coming back to Kentucky for another season, which Mitch himself later confirmed.
As we normally do at the end of every season, Coach Calipari and I have had conversations about the direction of our men’s basketball program and I can confirm that he will return for his 16th season as our head coach.
And of course, that was met with a lot of BBN heading to Twitter to give their strong opinions about it.
Despite all the justified criticism, it won’t change anything. The best thing for everyone to do is look forward and hope a couple of key pieces from this team return with Cal.
Cal needs to worry about one thing: Winning.
This offseason should be fun..
On a night when it drew 14 walks and five hit by pitch, No. 15 Kentucky finally broke the dam in a six-run seventh inning on the way to a 9-5 victory over Miami University.
