John Calipari, a highly regarded college basketball coach, is leaving the University of Kentucky to join the University of Arkansas. The move is being financed, in part, by John Tyson, a conservative megadonor and heir to the Tyson chicken empire. Tyson will also contribute to the school's 'name, image and likeness' fund. However, the University of Arkansas will have to pay millions of dollars more per year for Calipari's salary compared to their previous coach.
Decorated college basketball coach John Calipari is leaving the University of Kentucky to take a job with the University of Arkansas, news outlets reported on Sunday. Coaches change jobs all the time, but this one has some unfortunate echoes of broader issues in higher education at the moment. Calipari's move is reportedly being financed, in part, by his friend John Tyson , an heir to the Tyson chicken empire and a conservative megadonor from Arkansas.
The University of Texas at Austin slashed its DEI programs — and the jobs required to run them — after Texas Republicans passed a law banning the programs at schools. Still, the university still plans to spend tens of millions of dollars on new athletics facilities seen as a potential boon for recruitment. The University of Florida, meantime, slashed its DEI programs even as it committed millions to its athletics programs for the years ahead.
