Joe B. Hall scratching his head about why he can't coach Wildcats

Former University of Kentucky basketball coach Joe B. Hall is upset that he may not get to coach a team of ex-Wildcats in an exhibition game against the Dominican National Team in Rupp Arena on Aug. 15.
Hall said he was told by current UK coach John Calipari that he would coach the team of professionals, which is scheduled to include John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Rajon Rondo and Tayshaun Prince.
Calipari will coach the Dominican Team. He was named coach the Dominican Republic National Team in May and will coach the team in tournaments -- including an Olympic qualifier -- in August and September.
But despite the fact that former UK players are participating , UK senior Eloy Vargas is on the Dominican team, Calipari is coaching the Dominican team and the game is scheduled for Rupp Arena, UK officially has no affiliation with the game.
