Is John Calipari packing his bags and leaving for Austin? Texas AD Chris Del Conte says that would be news to him.
With speculation growing regarding the Longhorns’ interest in the Kentucky head coach and that interest potentially being mutual — Travis Branham of 247Sports says Calipari “would likely jump” at a competitive offer — Del Conte felt the need to jump out in front of the conversation before things spiraled out of control.
His take? No conversations have taken place regarding the program’s vacant head coaching position and the focus remains on Texas’ current season.
