Kentucky coach John Calipari called the current college basketball scandal a "black eye" at the Wildcats' media day on Thursday.
"What's out there right now is a black eye," Calipari said. "None of us know where this thing's going. I don't know where all this is going. Obviously what happened to this point isn't good."
Since news of an FBI investigation into corruption in college basketball broke on Sept. 26, 10 people have been arrested, including four assistant coaches. Louisville head coach Rick Pitino was placed on unpaid administrative leave.
Calipari said no one has reached out to Kentucky yet regarding the federal investigation.
"We haven't been contacted," he said. "The NCAA hasn't contacted us."
Regarding Pitino, his longtime rival, Calipari wouldn't say much: "It's unfortunate, all the stuff that's come down."

Cal seemed a little dodgy when asked what he might say to reassure the fan base (assuming the investigation now will spread to include Nike schools).
But then again, he was already pretty pissed off by that time by all the FBI questions.
I'll reserve judgement for now.

Tipton is a turd. I don’t blame Coach for getting upset. UK already made a public statement that they weren’t involved and hadn’t been contacted by the FBI. But, a certain reporter wants to drag Coach into the mess that is happening in Louisville.
If I were the Coach, I would ban him from Campus and all press conferences and tell his paper they would have to send another hack in his place.
