ESPN has revealed the top 50 coaches in college basketball according to their ESPN Forecast panel. John Calipari slid in at number two, second only to Billy Donovan who took the top spot.
In the past five years, Kentucky really has been the dominant face of college basketball both on and off the court, which is exactly how Kentucky fans prefer it. The Wildcats have been to the Final Four more often than not in Calipari’s tenure. Literally: In five years, they’ve gone three times.
