Well, if the allegations turn out to be true, it will be the second time that Calipari has coached at a school that had major NCAA issues, but none of the mud stuck to him. Some, even the thoughtful ones, are going to assure us that is a huge problem, and maybe it is in a strictly public relations sense. People, particularly in America, love to play the, "guilt by association," game -- any "bad thing" taints all those associated with it in a position of responsibility, whether or not they had any actual involvement with said "bad thing." That's a favorite pastime here in the U.S., particularly in sports and politics. That means, Dear Reader, that you as a Kentucky fan are now tainted by your association with John Calipari, who is tainted by the Memphis allegations and the UMass scandal. That's how it goes, so if you are looking for the NCAA's letter clearing Coach Cal to provide absolution from your friendly rivals here in the River City and elsewhere, may I suggest you find yourself a home somewhere in the dimension we like to call, "reality."
