Candidates split on whether they’d hire Pitino or Calipari
The KSR GOP Gubernatorial Debate rolls on, and we may have just heard the toughest question. Matt asked all four candidates which coach they’d hire: Rick Pitino or John Calipari. Their responses? Split down the middle, two for Rick and two for Cal.Both Hal Heiner and Matt Bevin said they’d hire Rick Pitino. “Pitino is the better coach with players, Calipari is the better recruiter,” Bevin said.
James Comer and Will T. Scott said they’d hire John Calipari. Comer is wearing a UK tie today, but Matt wasn’t going to be fooled, and quipped “But aren’t you a longtime Cards fan?” after his answer.
