John Calipari couldn’t be happier, especially since this will be his first go-round as Kentucky’s head coach — a position that is largely viewed in a fishbowl, with everyone (fans, trustees,the administration, etc.)  watching and scrutinizing the coach’s every move.

Patrick Patterson decided to return to Kentucky to play for John Calipari for his junior year.

The move comes as a bit of a surprise, since Patterson was projected as a first-round pick in the June 25th draft.

“I want to help Kentucky compete for a national title, and even more than that win its eighth national championship,” Patterson said in a statement released by the school. “I’m also really excited about playing for coach Cal and developing my game in the dribble drive offense.”
