**********MEMPHIS: CALIPARI HAS LEFT THE BUILDING
********TUESDAY, 5:30PM UPDATE
Well, in one simple phrase, we have joined the club. Although we were told again today that Calipari had verbally committed, it appears things may be a bit more drawn out than first expected. Stay tuned for updates. UK has given Coach Cal a deadline of TONIGHT for a final decision, that much we do know.
We are up to over 18,000 members now, please continue to invite your friends and direct people to the group. The amount of publicity continues especially due to some of our 'high profile' members. THANKS for the support.
****TUESDAY MORNING, 11:00AM UPDATE
Once again, not a lot of 'new' information to report this morning. Memphis Talk Radio is reporting at this hour Calipari will accept the UK offer and is expected in Lexington today. However, I fear they are basing this on the same information that we are when it was leaked that JC had 'verbally' accepted an offer and was first reported here by us at 10:30 am yesterday. A Memphis Commercial-Appeal reporter was on ESPN this morning and said that the boosters offered a 'mind-blowing' compensation and retirement package to Cal last night that included unlimited use of a private jet for he and his family. He also said he still believes Coach Cal is Lexington bound.
It is no secret at this point that the ball is in Coach Cal's court. We will put up anymore newsworthy updates AS SOON as we can get them and confirm. Hopefully we can confirm soon to everyone in Memphis that Coach Cal has in fact, left the building.
On another note, THANK YOU for supporting the group. Please keep inviting and telling your friends to join the group, as we are 2/3's the way to our goal of 24,000, capacity of Rupp Arena. Make sure and send us anything you find or hear about our group in the media and we will post it.
