*Tuesday Update: As of now, all indication are leaning toward Calipari being the new headcoach of the Kentucky Wildcats. Every news outlet was covering the possibility of the UK coach throughout the day and all thru the everning. The last report from last night is that Calipari is going to sleep on a reported 8 year, $35 million dollar deal from Kentucky! What is there to sleep on?!

Next: Along that note, the same person said that almost all of the details were finalized late Monday night. One of the major sticking points was the status of the outstanding scholarship offers for the players in the 2010 class and beyond. According to this source, Calipari said that “only one is anywhere close to a UK-level player”.

Matt Jones (Kentucky Sports Ratio) spoke to someone very close to Calipari who said a couple of interesting things:

Follow up:

1. There will be no players leaving Memphis to follow him to UK. There was some speculation of Wesley Witherspoon, Robert Sallie and others following their coach, but that will not happen.

2. This person also says that Calipari is very excited about the current UK roster. This person said that “Patterson, Meeks, Miller, Stevenson, Harris, Galloway, Orton and Hood”, along with 1 or 2 recruits he would bring with him, is a team that Calipari says could potentially be special.

*Update: May hear news from UK officials as early as today on if Calipari accepts the UK offer and signs on the dotted-line, but we may not see an official announcement until Wednesday, Thursday at the latest...
