Even though Anthony and Tyreke are in NOLA, I have no interest in the Pelicans or any other job. I have a great job and I'm happy at UK.

One of the hardest reporter smack downs i've seen.

For 10 minutes Reid had the biggest story in the league. Then Calipari makes everything he wrote, all his "sources", look like trash.

Didn't the same dude say he wasn't interested in leaving Memphis, and then a week later he was gone to Kentucky?

Cal even puts AD and Tyreke's names in the tweet.

Just letting recruits know he's got two guys on that team....

MArch 24, 2009 - After Saturday’s game, Calipari said he has “no interest” in leaving Memphis for any other job. “We’ve got a good thing going here,” Calipari said. “Truth be told, there are probably better jobs than Memphis,” Calipari said. “But there may not be a better team than the one I’m going to have for the next couple of years. You don’t leave that.”

March 27, 2009 - Calipari, who just completed his ninth season with the Tigers, told a group of reporters at Wilson Air Center today that Memphis is "where I want to coach." "I want to be here," Calipari said today. "This is where I want to coach, and my name will be tied to every job that's open, and our fans I think have gotten used to it."

April 1, 2009 - After over a day of deliberation, John Calipari is headed to Kentucky. The coach sent a text message to ESPN.com's Andy Katz on Tuesday evening saying, "I am accepting the UK job! Go Big Blue, coach Cal."

This might very well be true, but if he is interested he's not going to tweet that he's trying to get the job.

I agree. Especially in the middle of recruiting.

Of course not. His pay checks currently come from Kentucky, not the Pelicans.

Yeah, but he went out of his way to tweet this with the quickness. He wasn't asked by reporters. I don't believe he wants to leave UK.
