After Villanova basketball coach Jay Wright retired in 2022 following 21 seasons, he took on a new job as CBS college basketball analyst, and it sounds like he’s having too much fun to think of another career move right now.

So when people started tossing his name around to replace University of Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari, Wright set the record straight.  He would not be taking the job, even if it is one of the most prestigious college basketball jobs in the country.

Calipari looks like he’ll be leaving Kentucky to take a head coaching job at the University of Arkansas, writes Gabriela Carroll for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Wright broke the news on TNT ahead of the national championship game that he would be staying with CBS’ March Madness broadcast team.

“I am so happy doing this,” Wright, 62, said of broadcasting. “I’m telling you this right now, I love doing this.”

As to replacing a legendary coach at a blue blood program like Kentucky?

“The guy that replaces [Calipari] is going to be in a really difficult position to cover all the areas of college basketball,” Wright said.

“He’s a college basketball genius,” Wright said of Calipari.
