Calipari rejected $60 million deal from Cavs

Kentucky coach John Calipari and the Cleveland Cavaliers discussed a seven-year, $60 million-plus contract, according to Yahoo Sports.

The proposed deal would have made Calipari the president and coach, giving him having final say over roster moves over general manager David Griffin.

Calipari ended up returning to Kentucky after receiving a new seven-year, $52.5 million contract loaded with annual retention bonuses to reward his loyalty to the program.
