Newly-hired men's basketball head coach John Calipari doesn't plan to stack the Arkansas roster with the kind of reserve talent he put together at Kentucky.
Calipari told former Oregon State head coach Craig Robinson on Wednesday's episode of their podcast Ways to Win that he plans to only keep "eight or nine guys" with the Razorbacks to start the 2024-25 season.
"They're leaving anyway, and why would I develop a kid for someone else? Why would I do that?" Calipari said.
Calipari added that he wasn't the only college coach taking on the philosophy as transfer portal numbers swell.
