LEXINGTON, Ky. – Kentucky men’s basketball guard Brad Calipari, head coach John Calipari’s son, is transferring to Detroit Mercy. Brad Calipari made the announcement Monday on his social media accounts.
“Ten years ago my life completely changed when my dad took the head coaching job at the University of Kentucky,” Calipari said. “I became part of a family. I didn’t know it then, but it became part of something that would define who I am and who I want to be.
“During my time at Kentucky, I’ve grown from a kid to a man. I got in the gym and earned that opportunity a few years ago and I’ve had the privilege of putting on that Kentucky jersey for the last three years.
