One last tweet tonight. Forgot to send out the CBS Sports College Basketball 🏀 news story on Pope and Kentucky. Kentucky sent a contract that has Pope on a five-year deal at an average of $5.5 million annually.

John Calipari is expected to bring all his stable of assistants from UK to Arkansas, sources told CBS Sports.

Assistants are: Orlando Antigua, Chin Coleman, Chuck Martin.

Special assistant: Bruiser Flint

Calipari will also bring on his son, Brad, in a player development role.

To be clear: Yes, Kentucky checked in with Donovan's camp. But at no point did UK aggressively pursue or put an emphasis on trying to hire him. The biggest issue—from Kentucky's end, per sources—was not wanting to wait until whenever the Chicago Bulls' season ends.

UConn is a dynasty.

We probably won't see something like this again for decades—because it defies what should be possible in modern college basketball.

And these Huskies will go down as one of the best teams in history.

John Calipari makes it official.

'This is a dream job. It was my dream job.'

'The last few weeks, we've come to realize that this program probably needs to hear another voice.'

'The fans need to hear another voice.'
