Brad Calipari explains college decision in The Players’ Tribune

He began with his introduction to Big Blue Nation when the family moved to Lexington back in 2009, and how he quickly learned it’s the mecca of basketball. He then detailed his reason for leaving it all behind to go to prep school, to focus on paving his own way in the sport.

From there, he opened up on why he decided to come back to Lexington, his home, for what will be the hardest thing he’ll ever do: playing for Coach Cal, his old man, as a Wildcat.

“It’s going to be home — again,” Brad wrote.
