Kentucky basketball officially posts two assistant coach job openings

John Calipari is ready to hire two new assistant coaches.

Following the departures of Tony Barbee and Joel Justus – the former took the head coaching job at Central Michigan and the latter became the lead assistant coach on Bobby Hurley’s staff at Arizona State – the Kentucky basketball program has posted two job openings to find their replacements.

The first? A full-time assistant coaching position, one that includes on-court coaching and off-campus recruiting, the role Justus previously held.

“To assist the Head Coach in the administration of a Division I Men’s Basketball Program,” the job description reads.
