Why John Calipari won't stop recruiting one-and-done players

DESTIN - Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari has become synonymous with one-and-done players.

And that doesn't seem likely to change.

"Whatever happens, it hasn't seemed to hurt us," Calipari said during a break in the SEC's spring meetings. "We just get another group of kids and go."

But what if that didn't happen? What if, instead of recruiting five-star players expecting to bolt for the NBA after one season, he recruited four-star players and tried to keep them for three or - gasp! - four years?

Calipari said that's not as easy as it sounds.
