National basketball writer Jeff Goodman talked to SEC coaches last week and published a piece on Hoops HQ in which an unidentified coach said Calipari “is becoming archaic.” The headline of the story: “Opposing Coaches on John Calipari and Arkansas: ‘Outdated.’ ‘None of their pieces fit.’”

SEC coaches don't seem to have much faith in this Arkansas basketball team in its first year under John Calipari.

As 2025 kicks off and teams focus on capitalizing on every opportunity, the Razorbacks have struggled to secure a win. The post End Times Are Near for John Calipari as Rival SEC Coach Claims Kentucky Legend Is “Becoming Archaic” appeared first on EssentiallySports.

John Calipari’s tenure at Arkansas is not off to a good start, and some rival SEC coaches do not see it getting much better.

The Arkansas Razorbacks certainly have an uphill climb to make the NCAA tournament in coach John Calipari's first season in Fayetteville. Following Saturday's 18-point loss at the hands of Missouri, Calipari's Razorbacks are now 11–7 on the season and 0–5 in SEC play.
