He does seem to be making a habit of leaving a program just before the recruiting violations surface.

Memphis will be forced to vacate the NCAA-record 38 victories from its Final Four season of 2007-08 under former coach John Calipari because of NCAA violations, several sources told ESPN.com.

The official statement regarding this is going to be released at 3pm. Unless sources are yanking ESPN's chain Caplipari is only head coach to have 2 Final Fours taken away.


12 years at Mass, 9 years at Memphis...what's the over-under at Kentucky, 6 years?

EDIT: It's official along with a 3 year probation.
