John Calipari Settles In

Calipari has 3 more kids signed or verballed than he has scholarships available..

no problem.........he sent three kids packing today...

-AJ Stewart
-Jared Carter
-Donald Williams
all bench players under Gillispie.....
 
I got a laugh when I went to the Kentucky Rivals message board today...

despite all the trouble Calipari is connected to...

here are a few of the top threads on their board...

"UCONN Violations: Not a Whisper"

wow...talk about house Creaning...

Coach Calipari sends another two players packing...simply tells them to go; your scholarship isn't being renewed...I need them for someone else...
http://kentucky.scout.com/2/871715.html

That makes a total of SEVEN returing players that have been Creaned by Calipari!!
James Pilgrim, Kevin Galloway, Jared Carter, Michael Porter, Donald Williams, A.J. Stewart and Landon Slone
 
This is the part where the NCAA should rethink their rulings. This is just not fair and very un-American. If a player's scholarship is yanked due to these type of circumstances they should be able to play anywhere right away. I can understand if their scholie is yanked due to grades or some legal issue but what did these guys do to deserve this? BTW...The father seems to be very level headed and is reacting extremely more dignified then I would have if I was Pilgrim's father.

"Never mind that he will have to sit out another year and have only one year of eligibility left if he transfers to a Division I school -- the same dilemma Galloway faces. Even though UK can yank his scholarship, he??™s still not free to transfer and play immediately. If you can explain that logic, you must work for the NCAA. ???Kids have got to understand these are one-year scholarships. They don??™t know if they will keep their scholarship or have to start all over at another school the next year,??? James Pilgrim said. ???Matt will move on and do well. We wish Kentucky the best. We wish the players still there the best. Kids just want to play basketball.???"
