Although the room seemed extra crowded and the food was a head scratcher for me, Calipari and Mitchell demonstrated that we have two coaches that really get their jobs, from A to Z. These men are infectious and really seem to thrive in the UK environment. Mitchell said that if his team does no do well this year, it will be his fault. Cal spoke inspirationally about changing people's and families' lives. Very cool.
Cal said he has paired Wiltjer and Harrow together and asked them to be practice partners, ala Nash and Dirk at Dallas. He wants them to be on the same page. He loves what Mayes brings to the table and thinks Stein is going to be a star, improving beyond his imagination. He thought Stein would be an extra recruit that would grow at UK, but he said he is going to find a way to start the kid, he is that good. Still young, but showing signs of being speciall.
Matt Jones got in a few good zingers about the coach at UL, but that is probably another thread, if worthy of discussion at all.
