Five Things John Calipari Said On Friday

In addition to the two stories we’ve already written from John Calipari’s Friday press conference, here are five things Cal said following UK’s between-games practice in Jacksonville. The other two quotes can be read here and here.

1. He respects Wofford’s head coach for giving Fletcher Magee a green light to launch.

Calipari said, “You’ve got to give it to Coach Young who says (to Magee), you have the green light, now respect it, and I’m going to take some of these because I know you’re going to make some. Then I heard that he is absolutely in the gym hours on end shooting those shots that you’re talking about, that he’s in that gym, which is why the coach says, all the time you’re in there, and that’s the shots you’re taking, you deserve to be able to do it in a game.
