Kentucky Men’s Basketball doesn’t seem to strike the same fear into its opponents that it did during John Calipari’s early seasons in Lexington.
Constantly reloading his rosters with multiple NBA lottery picks and a key veteran here and there, the Wildcat head coach built teams that exuded attitude with a hint of a mean streak. From the likes of John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Terrence Jones, Julius Randle, Josh Harrellson, Willie Cauley-Stein, Devin Booker, Tyler Ulis, and on and on and on…Kentucky always had players that made the opposing team respect them.
But lately? That hasn’t exactly been the case.
