John Calipari's move to Kentucky leaves the Arizona position as the next prize on the job opening list, and according to Arizona sources, they are close to taking Jeff Capel away from OU.
Capel, only 34, is 148-74 as a head coach at the D-1 level, including a 69-33 record at OU.
OU went 30-6 with an Elite Eight finish under Capel this season.
An Arizona source says negotiations could be wrapped up within a day or two, and Capel could be moving West.
