The second round of the men's NCAA Tournament could be a potential reunion between former Kentucky men's basketball coaches.
In the first round of March Madness, John Calipari and No. 10 Arkansas will take on No. 7 Kansas. In the same bracket, Rick Pitino and No. 2 St. John's take on No. 15 Ohama. That sets up a potential matchup between the two former Kentucky coaches in the second round.
Calipari left the Wildcats after a 15-year tenure that ended with a first-round exit during the 2024 NCAA Tournament.
