You don't understand, he's evil. All of those upstanding programs like Kansas, North Carolina and Kentucky (when they were virtual holy, as opposed to evil now, obviously) attract 8-10 of the top 50 recruits in the country because of their fine academic programs and their enthusiastic booster clubs.
These booster clubs are full of fine, upstanding millionaires and billionaires whose only mission is to cheer on the team and make sure they get to the arena. Sometimes they give them rides and forget to ask for the cars back. Sometimes they are concerned with their home situation, sometimes with their family situation. Sometimes their families end up in new homes they don't pay for, the better to foster that spirit of amateur competition.
All those dirty non top fifty recruits are just ghetto, picking up cash from unscrupulous "agents" interested only in latching onto NBA stars, unlike boosters who are interested in players homes and cars and academics. Yes, boosters are very interested in academics, often providing tutoring services out of the goodness of their hearts to top fifty recruits who haven't had the time to study, being that they are top recruits, not ghetto scum.
These tutors, mindful of their time issues, often provide fully written term papers for the various academic subjects, so that these scholar athletes will have a template to follow when they write their own papers. Often students merely turn in these templates, to better gauge what the teachers are looking for. Tutors may even provide test answers, so students can learn to test better if they ever actually have to take a test without the answers provided.
That is why these fine schools have so many outstanding scholar athletes, some of whom even stay through their sophomore years. So please, don't be a cynic, or an excuse maker. Calipari and those ghetto kids are scum. The top recruits with established booster programs shouldn't even be forced to play in the same division as them. Excepting Kentucky, of course, which is now evil.
