University of Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari is denying reports that he reached out to the New York Knicks about the team's president job.

Multiple media outlets on Thursday reported that Calipari reached out to the Knicks “through intermediaries” regarding their vacancy at team president. For what it's worth, the Knicks reportedly weren't interested in Calipari.

Late Thursday night, Coach Cal tweeted that “NO ONE has contacted the Knicks on my behalf. I am the coach at Kentucky and will be for a long time!”

Calipari is currently in Egypt coaching the USA Basketball squad at the 2017 FIBA U19 World Cup.
