Julius Randle's Wife: I Believe John Calipari 'Saved' My Grandma's Life 4 Years Ago

John Calipari is reportedly leaving Kentucky after 15 seasons to take on the head coaching gig for the Arkansas men's basketball team, per ESPN's Pete Thamel and Jeff Borzello, in a stunning move.

There's no doubting his impact in Lexington, though. On the court, he won a title, took the Wildcats to four Final Fours and regularly brought in some of the best recruiting classes in the sport.

But he also made an impact off the court, as the wife of former Kentucky star and current New York Knicks forward Julius Randle, Kendra Randle, posted on social media Monday morning:

From a basketball perspective, it felt like a parting was imminent—and perhaps needed to be—between Calipari and Kentucky. But there is always the human factor to take into account as well, especially after 15 years, and Coach Cal left his imprint in that regard too.
