John Calipari makes $9.2M a year and over the next three years he'll get an extra $2.6M from Kentucky. UCLA reportedly offered him $8M a year. Not only did they offer Calipari less money than what he already makes but UCLA Basketball also generally flies commercial instead of charter which is not very appealing to high profile coaches. If you're wondering why the UCLA program is struggling, Jason Smith and Mike Harmon are happy to enlighten you.
