Who’s NCAA Hoops’ Best?
Mind Rite Sports -- Quality, diverse sports coverage —
Derrick Rose... beast Tonight’s NCAA Men’s Hoops Championship game pits two very talented squads, Kansas and Memphis, against one another a mere two days after each dismantled the other two best teams in the nation — quite handily, I must say. I am still reeling from my ‘heels getting that big Kansas D put on them… but for those sticking around and online tonight, go check out The Starting Five ’s live blog . Game already started so no valid prediction here — rooting for that scrappy, grimy Memphis squad. Who doesn’t love the guilty pleasure of watching a ...

The Calipari Collection: Five Pictures of John Calipari Looking Like a Jackass
guttylittlebruins.com 4/1/2008 — Now, I’m a homer, but I’m not one of those homers. I do not instinctively despise any college hoops coach whose name does not rhyme with “Jen Mowland.” I dig Roy Williams. I love Rick Pitino. I acknowledge Tony Bennett is a really good looking guy. That being said, I was never a fan of John Calipari. Why? Cuz he talks a lot of s*** and he doesn’t back it up. DUH.

The Weekend’s Best - Final Four Rock Chalk Outline
mvn.com 4/7/2008 — If Kansas hopes to take home the title Monday night, they'll need to repeat their defensive effort from Saturday against a Memphis team firing on most if not all cylinders. Either that or they need to hope that in the next few hours John Calipari somehow becomes Kansas' head coach, and then returns to coach Memphis before the tip. Nothing fires up Kansas like defecting coaches.

Memphis coach John Calipari a Final Four free-throw moron, like a bad putter thinking Masters win — Chris Baldwin
Unlike many New Jersey sports writers who dealt with John Calipari while he coached the Nets, I liked him. Yes, he’s slick, but he’s also funny and surprisingly honest for a coach (in other words, there’s no holier-than-thou Mike Krzyzewski fakeness).
With that said, Calipari is a moron.
He made excuses for his team’s free-throw shooting all year, never demanded ...
Calipari is a True Sportsman — FanHouse
Memphis coach John Calipari will likely be vilified for not fouling Mario Chalmers before he had an opportunity to become a folk-hero in Lawrence . But believe it or not, Calipari actually made the correct decision. Let's make no mistake. Fouling Kansas before they had a chance to shoot a three-pointer probably would have won the Tigers the national championship. (And you have to say probably ...

John Calipari: Derrick Rose Will Stay 'If He Wants to Do What's Right for Me' — FanHouse
Freshman Derrick Rose has been the missing piece for Memphis this season, the difference from the team that was good in 2007 to this year's Final Four team, which has the potential to be remembered as great.
