Coach Calipari and Coach K are two very good coaches who are both in the hall of fame. They both are the coaches of two of the best teams in the NCAA. Coach Calipari is the coach of the Kentucky Wildcats and coach K is the coach of the Duke Blue Devils. Coach Calipari and coach K are different types of coaches because almost every year coach Calipari gets a really good freshman class and tries to win the championship. The next year they usually go into the pros. If a freshman does not go into the pros after his freshman year it usually means he is not ready yet or coach Calipari thinks he is not ready yet and will try to get him better for the pros. Coach K does do that sometimes but he does keep a lot of his players for 3 or sometimes all four years. He does this even in cases where they could of made the pros after their freshman year. Coach Calipari is trying to win National championships with his team but he wants them to go to the pros and have great career as soon as possible. Coach K is trying more to win National championships, but he still wants them to be great in the pros.
Coach Calipari coached at Memphis before he became the coach of Kentucky. His record at Memphis was 252 wins and 69 losses. His record at Kentucky so far is 190 wins and 38 losses.

Coach K has coached for a longer time than Coach Calipari but he still has a little better stats than coach Calipari. But like I said before Coach Calipari is trying to get his players ready for the pros as quickly as he can. Coach K is trying to win as many championships as possible. Coach Calipari does like to win national championships but he does like to see his players succeed in the game of basketball and have a great career. Coach K wants that too but he does want as many national championships as possible. Coach Calipari and Coach K are both very good coaches but coach K does have better stats. He has been coaching for almost double the time as coach Calipari has.
