3-point shot: Calipari keeps staff together
April, 25, 2012
By Andy Katz | ESPN.com

1. Kentucky coach John Calipari said Tuesday afternoon that Rod Strickland, a director of basketball operations, would be staying with the Wildcats and not heading to work for Larry Brown at SMU. Calipari said his entire coaching staff will remain intact; assistants Kenny Payne and Orlando Antigua had interest in a few openings but never got too far in the process. Assistant John Robic has been a steady presence next to Calipari during his tenure. Meanwhile, Calipari said he’s hopeful that the Wildcats can add one more recruit after already securing a top-five class.

If you open the link, Katz talks about his buddy Benford getting the UNT job (totally written in kiss [deleted] form) and criticizes our process and blah blah and blah.

Whether or not he's right is a different story, but Katz has done a nice of changing the rules of his criticism toward SMU.

Oh well, Andy -- tell your buddy Calhoun at UConn to keep his kids eligible so he doesn't have to go through roster chaos.

Rob Evans interviewed for a spot on Larry Brown's staff today.

The TCU assistant?

I'm not sure I could handle that

Not a huge surprise. He was at Ole Miss when RGT was there, wasn't he?

What's his reputation as a recruiter, hoopmanx?

Yes, he was there with RGT. If I remember correctly, they were actually teammates at Lubbock Christian.
