Rob Dillingham has announced his return to kentucky
Next season, collegiate basketball will undergo a seismic transformation. The fact that John Calipari left the Kentucky Wildcats after 15 seasons to join Arkansas, of all teams, has the potential to drastically alter the sports landscape.
After all, Cal is joining a program that will go head-to-head with Kentucky while remaining with the SEC.
Hearing from previous players who played for Kentucky and Caliari about their allegiance to one team over the other is now quite interesting. Regardless of how closely associated the retiring head coach is with the program, it can cause rifts when a head coach of a historically significant program, like Kentucky, leaves to take a position with another program.
The players from Calipari’s final squad in Lexington this past season responded in an unexpected way to the two sides. In an interview with the Lexington Herald-Leader, Rob Dillingham stated that he would return to Kentucky for reasons other than Calipari, mentioning the teachers, fans, and Director of Athletics Mitch Barnhart.
