Who could have possibly predicted that the Milwaukee Bucks wouldn’t turn into world beaters and instead struggle at the worst time imaginable when they hired Doc Rivers earlier in the season? Well, everybody who has paid any attention at all to the NBA over the last decade.
The Bucks bizarrely decided to fire head coach Adrian Griffin on January 23 despite holding a 30-13 record at the time in the midst of a stretch where they had won five of their last six games. Rivers was working as a consultant for the franchise at the time and was quickly hired to replace Griffin.

Wisconsin football coach Luke Fickell isn’t afraid of a little roughhousing in practice.
Fickell is entering his second season with the Badgers after an incredibly disappointing 7-6 inaugural campaign in Madison.

John Calipari reportedly gearing up to ditch Kentucky for Arkansas has set the internet on fire.
Pete Thamel shocked the college basketball world Sunday night when he reported that the Kentucky coach “is finalizing a five-year deal” to leave the Wildcats for the Razorbacks.
Arkansas has been on the hunt for a new coach since Eric Musselman left for USC. It appears the Razorbacks have their man, and fans are stunned.
There’s no question Calipari was going to enter next season in Lexington on the hot seat, and that was enough to motivate him to find a new job.
