Bruce Pearl appeared for a brief interview on College GameDay over the weekend.
Pearl was asked to give his thoughts on John Calipari moving to Arkansas and Kentucky hiring Mark Pope.
“Well, I think it makes the league better,” Pearl said. “Kentucky is always going to be Kentucky. Coach Pope does an unbelievable job and Cal just raises the level of the league at Arkansas…and he’s got like seven million dollars in NIL.”
Pearl added that he thinks it’s a win-win for everyone.
“College GameDay will go to Arkansas now because of John Calipari and his players there,” Pearl added.
