Putting a lot of faith in the source that it may be true.

This makes zero sense whatsoever. Why the hell would Calipari want to be in Fayetteville for a rebuild at age 64.

But there’s tons of credible reporting on this, not just anonymous burner accounts.

I do find it interesting that far more of UK’s roster than usual at this point has been radio silent. Only three of their kids have did anything about staying or going. That is weird.

WOW if true. Wow.

ALL AD's have a list of coaches in every sport. You may not like Dolson but he isn't stupid.

I’m not calling him stupid. I’m calling him neutered. I don’t believe for one second that he has any authorization to make changes. Also, according to some on here, he likely had a list of 3. One went to Michigan, the other wasn’t interested, and the one that was, we passed over, in favor of Mike Woodson. I doubt Dolson has a list at this moment.

I've seen reports that Arkansas doesn't have a very robust NIL so somebody must be pledging a boatload to entice Cal.  But even if that's the case it still makes no sense.  If he truly wanted to leave why not throw his name into the Ohio State, Michigan or some of the other openings with no potential NCAA issues pending and better NILs?

My cousin's boyfriend works at a news station down there and is saying it is a done deal

Calipari leaving pUKe and a total eclipse of the sun.  Has to be some kind of omen.

If this happens we need to take a LONG look at that UK roster and their recruits. Dead week might be a gift to evaluate where things stand.

Lots of absolute, unbridled euphoria from UK fans at the thought they they might be able to send Calipari packing.

Who would be on UK's list of replacements?

I imagine the fans will want Hurley (especially if they win tomorrow) but I don't see that happening.

They definitely think they are getting Oats or Hurley.

Based on that, I already feel sorry for the guy they end up with.

The fan base will request Brad Stevens, Jay Wright, Nate Oats, Dan Hurley, Eric Spoelstra, Phil Jackson, Red Auerbach, etc.

I think they have a legit shot at Vogel, Golden, and Pope, and maybe they’re willing to stomach Beard or Wade.

Kentucky media starting? WTH is going on? 

[Stuhoo 80,875]

Apparently Calipari is completely sick of UK fanbase trashing him at every turn, and the UK fanbase is sick of Calipari coaching their basketball team.

I wonder who would get custody of Bruiser Flint? I’m guessing Archie.  :)

I think Oats or Beard. I think Oats is confident enough to take a 4 million dollar raise.

I don’t know what coach in this cycle would take that job, or who they would even be happy with. Hopefully they stink for a few years.

Lmao, Rupp rafters is in turmoil, they don't know what to believe, confusion, elation, hope, and serious doubt! It's kinda funny!

If it comes out that Cal is interested in Arkansas tomorrow a lot of UK fans may end up having a total eclipse of the heart. 

[LamarCheeks 18,943]

Cal's focus always has been putting guys in the NBA, not winning nattys -- although I suppose he thought the two would go hand-in-hand. 

I think that's wearing thin in Lexington. 

That said, I still find it hard to believe he'd leave for Arkansas. I figured if anything, his next move would just be to hang up the whistle. 

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,386]

Sounds like it’s happening folks.

I’d say, go get Boogie if we can. I think Alabama losing the other night might explain some of the timing. Oats to UK?
