"There's a couple guys I'll probably call them, say, ‘Hey, you need to consider this, that and the other,'" Calipari said, referring to the Panthers' job, open since Rod Barnes was fired Feb. 27.
Calipari, who wouldn't identify possible candidates, said he loved the potential of the job because of its location in Atlanta ("a great city") and its membership in the Colonial Athletic Association. With teams such as George Mason, Virginia Commonwealth and UNC-Wilmington, all of whom have won in the NCAA tournament in recent history, Calipari said the potential to do likewise exists at Georgia State.
"It's kind of like when I went to UMass," he said. "They said, ‘Why did you like the job? It's the worst job in college basketball.' We're in a league with Temple. And they were No. 1 in the country and if they can be No. 1, we can be No. 1."
