We have heard John Calipari say it many times before, Kentucky men’s basketball is the “gold standard”.
However, Calipari doesn’t believe the Kentucky Wildcats' facilities are up to that standard and says that upgrades are needed.
During a Monday radio spot with Dan Issel and Mike Pratt, Calipari said he’s pushing to get upgraded basketball facilities.
Calipari also briefly discussed Jai Lucas’ departure to Duke and what Kentucky is looking for in his his replacement.
“Now, as we start talking about staff, because the name, image, likeness and the transfer portal, it’s even more vital,” Calipari stated.
