I haven't followed every development of this episode, but Mark Stoops had every right to come to the defense of himself and everyone involved with that program. John Calipari was way out of line.

Here's a breakdown from SDS on some of the macro issues at play here:

Kentucky can replace Calipari, but not Mark Stoops

To be honest, I'm not super impressed with John Calipari on the whole. He's a good coach and a great recruiter, but he's more of a recruiter than a coach. As much talent as he's had in his tenure, I think it's fair to call him an underachiever.
