John Calipari met with the media today to preview his team’s game vs. Louisville tomorrow. We’ve already shared his comments on Louisville and how he’s taking responsibility for this team’s woes, but here are five more things that stood out to me.
1. Nick Richards and EJ Montgomery have been better in practice
One of Kentucky’s primary issues is post play, or the lack thereof. Nick Richards regressed vs. Utah and was plagued by foul trouble vs. Ohio State. Calipari said he’s encouraging his junior big man not to play scared, and that both he and EJ Montgomery have looked better in practice this week.
