John Calipari: A Basketball Coaching Legend
Early Life and Education John Vincent Calipari, born on February 10, 1959, in Moon Township, Pennsylvania, grew up with a passion for basketball. He attended Moon Area High School, where he played point guard for the school's basketball team. After graduating in 1977, Calipari enrolled at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, where he played for the Seahawks from 1979 to 1980. He then transferred to Clarion University of Pennsylvania, where he played point guard from 1981 to 1982 before graduating with a bachelor's degree in marketing.
Early Coaching Career Calipari's coaching career began as an assistant coach at the University of Kansas under Larry Brown from 1982 to 1985. He then moved on to the University of Pittsburgh, where he served as an assistant coach from 1985 to 1988. In 1988, Calipari took his first head coaching position at the University of Massachusetts (UMass).
University of Massachusetts (1988-1996) During his tenure at UMass, Calipari transformed the program into a national powerhouse. He led the Minutemen to five consecutive Atlantic 10 Conference titles and a Final Four appearance in 1996, marking the school's first-ever trip to the Final Four. Calipari's success at UMass earned him recognition as the Naismith College Coach of the Year in 1996.
NBA Coaching Experience (1996-1999) After his successful run at UMass, Calipari made the leap to the NBA, becoming the head coach of the New Jersey Nets. He coached the Nets for three seasons, leading them to the playoffs in the 1997-1998 season. However, he was fired during the lockout-shortened 1998-1999 season after the Nets struggled to a 3-17 start.
University of Memphis (2000-2009) Calipari returned to college coaching in 2000, taking over as the head coach of the University of Memphis. During his nine seasons with the Tigers, Calipari built Memphis into a perennial contender. He guided the team to four Conference USA titles, two NCAA Tournament Elite Eight appearances, and a national championship game appearance in 2008. However, the NCAA later vacated the 2007-2008 season's achievements due to violations related to the eligibility of one of Calipari's players, Derrick Rose.
University of Kentucky (2009-2023) In 2009, Calipari was hired as the head coach of the University of Kentucky, one of the most storied programs in college basketball history. He wasted no time making his mark, leading the Wildcats to a national championship in 2012 with a team led by future NBA stars Anthony Davis and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. Calipari's success at Kentucky continued, as he guided the team to four Final Four appearances (2011, 2012, 2014, 2015), two national championship games (2012, 2014), and one national title (2012).
Throughout his tenure at Kentucky, Calipari became known for his ability to recruit and develop top talent. He embraced the "one-and-done" era of college basketball, consistently bringing in highly-touted freshmen who would spend one year in college before declaring for the NBA Draft. This approach led to criticism from some quarters but also produced numerous NBA stars, including Davis, Karl-Anthony Towns, Devin Booker, and John Wall.
In addition to his on-court success, Calipari was also known for his charitable work and community involvement. He established the Calipari Foundation, which focuses on improving the lives of children and families in need, and was active in supporting various philanthropic causes throughout his time at Kentucky.
Latest News: Hired as Arkansas Men's Basketball Coach After 13 successful seasons at the University of Kentucky, John Calipari made headlines in March 2023 when it was officially announced that he would be taking over as the head coach of the University of Arkansas men's basketball team. The move came as a surprise to many, given Calipari's long-standing success at Kentucky and his status as one of the most prominent coaches in college basketball.
The decision to leave Kentucky was not an easy one for Calipari, who had built a legacy in Lexington and become synonymous with the Wildcats' basketball program. However, the opportunity to take on a new challenge and lead another storied program in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) proved too enticing to pass up.
In his introductory press conference at Arkansas, Calipari expressed his excitement about the new role and his belief in the potential of the Razorbacks' program. He praised the passion of the Arkansas fan base and the commitment of the university's administration to building a championship-caliber team.
Calipari's hiring at Arkansas was met with enthusiasm from Razorback fans, who were eager to see their program return to the national spotlight. Arkansas has a rich basketball history, with six Final Four appearances and one national championship (1994) to its name. However, the program had struggled to consistently compete at the highest level in recent years, and fans saw Calipari as the coach who could bring Arkansas back to prominence.
The move to Arkansas also represented a homecoming of sorts for Calipari, who had previously coached at the University of Memphis, located just across the Mississippi River from Arkansas. His familiarity with the region and his track record of success in the SEC were seen as valuable assets as he embarked on this new chapter in his coaching career.
As Calipari took the reins at Arkansas, he wasted no time in getting to work. He began assembling his coaching staff, reaching out to top recruits, and laying the groundwork for the future of Razorback basketball. With his proven track record of success, his ability to attract and develop elite talent, and his unparalleled marketing and promotional skills, there was little doubt that Calipari would make an immediate impact at Arkansas.
Legacy and Impact John Calipari's legacy as a basketball coach is one of unparalleled success, innovation, and impact. Throughout his career, he has consistently built programs into national powerhouses, from his early days at UMass to his championship runs at Kentucky. His ability to recruit and develop top talent has made him one of the most successful coaches in the history of college basketball, with numerous NBA stars crediting him for their growth and development.
Beyond his on-court achievements, Calipari has also made a significant impact off the court. His charitable work and community involvement have touched the lives of countless individuals, and his influence extends far beyond the world of basketball. He has used his platform to raise awareness for various causes, from education to poverty to disaster relief, and has been a vocal advocate for social justice and equality.
As he embarks on his new challenge at the University of Arkansas, there is no doubt that John Calipari will bring the same passion, dedication, and leadership that have defined his career. With his arrival in Fayetteville, Arkansas fans have reason to be excited about the future of Razorback basketball, and the college basketball world will be watching closely to see what Calipari will achieve in this new chapter of his legendary coaching journey.

Le principe de ce podcast est de parler du hockey, de son histoire, de parler de toutes celles et ceux qui ont fait, qui font et qui feront l’histoire de ce merveilleux sport. Bien sûr, nous parlerons de et avec les joueurs de l’élite, mais pas uniquement car nous souhaitons mettre en avant tous les autres acteurs sans qui ce sport ne pourrait pas être : les arbitres, managers/délégués d’équipes jeunes, les clubs et leurs staffs, les bénévoles, et tous les jeunes et moins jeunes joueurs qui évoluent en catégories dites « récréatives ».
Chaque épisode aura le même format. Nous commencerons par une courte capsule durant laquelle nous partagerons des avis, conseils sur différents sujets tels que le matériel, la préparation physique. Nous aborderons également des sujets d’actualité en rapport avec le hockey. Cette capsule sera suivie d’un interview d’une personnalité du hockey, qu’il soit joueur ou non, connue ou pas, mais une personne qui détient une certaine connaissance du monde du hockey.
Jonathan Newman est votre co-hôte avec Bertrand Lodewyckx, journaliste et spécialiste du hockey. Il est le fondateur du magazine et site web Tip-in Hockey News, il est également responsable des jeunes U14-16 ainsi que du Top Hockey au Lara. Il est également entraîneur et coach. Jonathan, quant à lui, est un passionné de hockey, joueur depuis 8 ans en catégorie Gents au Racing, et fût également manager de l'équipe de son fils (U8 jusqu'à U16).
