Following arguably the worst season in Kentucky basketball history – the Wildcats finished with fewer than ten wins for the first time since 1926-27 – John Calipari knew he needed to hit reset this offseason. After starting his time at Kentucky with three Final Fours in five years (2011, 2012, 2014) and one national title (2012), the UK head coach wanted the program to return to its winning ways as the gold standard of college basketball.
To do so, he brought back his most trusted confidant from UK’s absurd five-year run from 2009-2014: Orlando Antigua.
“I am really excited to have Orlando back,” Calipari said.
