BTI’s Rants and Ramblings: What Should Calipari’s Message be to Keldon Johnson?

Ever since John Calipari took over the program in 2009, the mentality that he has had, and one that has worked almost the entire time, is this is a players first program. He only emphasized that more calling the 2010 NBA Draft the greatest night in UK history, much to the chagrin of most UK fans. But you can’t deny that mentality and characterization of the program he built has led to the absurd amount of talent that has come through Lexington in 10 years. But it has also led to a bunch of offseasons where some fans, whether it be a majority or minority, become frustrated because guys exit the program after 1 year without being surefire NBA talents.
