REPORT: Kentucky Basketball Assistants Out of the Scouting Picture

It feels like nothing is going right for the Kentucky basketball program. When everything is off, finding one problem to solve can be difficult. Kyle Tucker believes some of these problems stem back to coaching, and not necessarily the head basketball coach.

Following the Wildcats’ 9-16 season John Calipari flipped his coaching staff. After swinging and missing on several high-profile recruits, he brought back one of his best recruiters, Orlando Antigua. The Cats also picked up Chicago connections with Chin Coleman, and this offseason he hired KT Turner to cultivate UK’s Texas recruiting ties. All are well-known as great recruiters, but who is helping these recruits develop and preparing them for their next opponent?
