While the New York Knicks poke around basically every employed NBA head coach in an effort to address their own vacancy, another college coach has taken his hat out of the potential mix.

The Knicks, meantime, are the only coaching opening in the NBA but they have been shut down while trying to speak with numerous sitting NBA head coaches, including Jason Kidd (Dallas), Ime Udoka (Houston), Chris Finch (Minnesota), Billy Donovan (Chicago) and Quin Snyder (Atlanta).

Calipari, who has publicly vouched for team president Leon Rose in the past prior to New York's last coaching search, said Wednesday the Knicks' vacancy is a "hell of a job," but his plan is to stick with the Razorbacks for now.
