And the Hey there it's Gary Parish welcome back to the CBS Sports Eye on College Basketball

Podcast where we sometimes discuss camel fighting, dodo birds, and leaky

black. Matt Norlander is here with me and we are obviously in Arizona and advance of tonight's national title game.

Final game of the season, 2024 NCAA tournament, Yukon against Purdue, can't wait.

And not many things could knock the national title game out of the

a block of a podcast or a television show on the day of the national title game but

one thing that could is a divorce between Kentucky and John Calipari and that's what it appears we are getting.

John Calipari reportedly heading to Arkansas, Matt Norlander, give us the details.

It has been an insane, I don't know, 15 hours at this point,

but yes, word started to really percolate on Sunday afternoon

and then into Sunday evening here in Arizona.

This is not official as we do this show live on CBS Sports Network.

Shouts to everyone watching live and obviously if you're getting to the pot afterward we appreciate you so much

but calipari headed to fayetteville reports are that he's going to meet with the team his Kentucky

players later this Monday afternoon and then a deal is is thought to be finalized here before we get out of Monday,

Tuesday at the absolute latest.

It is the national title day so maybe they wait one day to make it official, but here we go.

I'm told five years, somewhere in the neighborhood of about 8 million per year.

So much money is being tossed around with this job because Calipary is also going to get a huge

injection of NIL money. I don't know if Arkansas is going to have more NIL

money than any program in the sport but I believe that's very much on the

table.
