[COLOR=black]Now Kentucky coach John Calipari, who is no stranger to recruiting controversy, may have gone old school to try and get around the restrictions that keep him from making public comments about high school prospects. [/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]On Thursday, Calipari told a Canadian prep hoops reporter that he thought Henderson (Nev.) Findlay Prep star Anthony Bennett “would be a nice fit for the Wildcats,” a statement which that reporter, North Pole Hoops editor Tariq Sbiet, then Tweeted out publicly.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]Here’s precisely how Sbiet’s Tweet read:[/COLOR][INDENT][COLOR=black]Coach Cal of Kentucky also told me he really likes Anthony Bennett @ABennett24 and that he would be a nice fit for the wildcats[/COLOR]
[/INDENT][COLOR=black]Sbiet — whose Twitter handle is Tsbiet — quickly deleted the Tweet, but not before a Prep Rally source captured a screen grab of it. He also couldn’t pull it down before a handful of other team-specific college hoops blogs re-Tweeted it and passed comment on its questionable legality, too.[/COLOR]
