It didn’t take long for John Calipari to make his presence felt at the University of Arkansas. Since being hired away from Kentucky following the 2024 NCAA Tournament, Calipari has managed to put together the No. 3 overall recruiting class and No. 1 transfer class in the country, according to 247Sports. He pillaged his former Kentucky basketball roster, flipping three top-25 high school recruits and landing three coveted transfers, who all played their freshman seasons in Lexington.
Calipari was hired with the intention of the Arkansas basketball roster returning to the upper echelon of college sports. The Razorbacks won the national championship in 1994, and with Calipari’s recruiting prowess, it may not be long before the Razorbacks reemerge as a college basketball powerhouse.
