Calipari is (arguably) in the conversation for worst ending of a HOF coach's career in history. Especially considering he has recruited the 2nd most talent in the nation for the last 5-6 years. It is simply astonishing, considering how successful Calipari was up to the 2020s decade.
so......Calipari has lost TEN of his last 13 post-season games.
With Recruiting classes ranked:
#2
#1
#5
#9
#1
#3
And 3 transfer classes each ranked in the top 5 in the nation.
The 3 post season wins were over:
11 seed Vanderbilt in the 2021 SECT
11 seed Providence in the 2022 NCAAT
16 seed USC in the 2025 SECT
That is it.....
