John Calipari has finalized a contract extension with the University of Kentucky, according to an open records request obtained by The Courier-Journal.

The new deal, which will add an additional year to Calipari's previous agreement, now runs through 2022 and is guaranteed to pay the UK head man $8 million in each of the last four years of the contract.

Calipari has now received a contract extension four times during his tenure with the Wildcats, after each season he's led Kentucky to the Final Four.

The Times-Picayune, citing a source close to the Kentucky coach, reported Tuesday that Calipari had expressed interest in the New Orleans Pelicans' head coaching job, which he quickly shot down via Twitter and an official statement from the school.

Even though Anthony and Tyreke are in NOLA, I have no interest in the Pelicans or any other job. I have a great job and I'm happy at UK.

Calipari led UK to a 38-1 record this season and sent seven early entrants to the NBA Draft, where four Wildcats are projected among the top 12 picks.
