re: How much longer will Calipari be at Kentucky?

Will he bolt again for the NBA?

I don't expect him to take the pay cut...

from June 2014:
John Calipari and the University of Kentucky have agreed to a seven-year, $52.5 million contract extension, the school announced Thursday.

Calipari has led the Wildcats to a national championship, three Final Fours and four Elite Eight appearances in five seasons as the Kentucky men's basketball coach. He was the subject of great speculation during the Wildcats' 2014 run to the national championship game as a number of NBA head coaching positions came open.
The deal comes two days after Alabama agreed to a contract extension with football coach Nick Saban that will pay him $6.9 million a year for the next eight seasons. For the 2014 season, Saban's agreement will make him of the nation's most highly paid public employees as well as one of the most highly paid people in American higher education.

However, Calipari is scheduled to surpass Saban's basic compensation total in the second season of his new deal. Calipari's total compensation from the school will rise to $7 milllion, from the $6.5 million he will get for the 2014-15 campaign.


p.s. I just bolded the Saban comment for the Bama fans...
