April 9, 200917 yr Coach Calipari brought Strickland to Memphis when he signed Derrick Rose to help mentor him. Calipari must have been impressed with Strickland to now make him an assistant in Lexington.
April 9, 200917 yr Does Antigua still sport the bow tie? I remember he almost died as a prep hoopster, he was shot multiple times.
April 9, 200917 yr I just wanted to see a picture of him so I looked him up on google and wikipedia showed up so I went to that hoping to find a picture, instead I just noticed that they have already updated him as being an assistant coach at UK under Coach Calipari. Crazy, who does that updating?
April 9, 200917 yr Does Antigua still sport the bow tie? I remember he almost died as a prep hoopster, he was shot multiple times. Orlando Antigua played at the University of Pittsburgh with a .22 caliber bullet in his head. I would guess that it has been since removed.

April 9, 200917 yr #1, 2 and 3 top assistants in the country according to "my source". All three has already been seen at the Hyatt and walking around Lexington. :laugh::ylsuper:
April 9, 200917 yr Sounds like a great staff. FWIW, I felt Billy G. had some of the best assistants, also. At the very least, they worked their rear ends off.

April 9, 200917 yr Doesn't really relate to anything, but I remember Coach Steve Smith (from Oak Hill Academy) calling Rajon Rondo the best point guard he's coached since Rod Strickland. I'm excited to have Strickland on staff. He's a point guard (who I think make the best coaches), and he has significant NBA experience. Don't know an awful lot about the others, but I'm much more excited about this staff than Billy Clyde's. With that said, I wish Cal could've brought Pastner...
