John Calipari may not even be 60 yet, but he’s already talking about the potential of coaching into his 70s.

During a radio interview with KSR, the 59-year-old Calipari joked about possibly coaching into his 70s if he has the energy to reach that feat.

“If I don’t have the energy to do it, I shouldn’t be coaching here, but I’m good,” said Calipari. “75 or 76, there will be a lot of games between then and now. I’m gonna have to go back for another contract if I’m going to coach that long.”

Calipari actually did talk about coaching into his 70s during a 2015 interview.
