Two Ways to Stay Loose Before a Big Game

John Calipari said he tells his team two things before every big game:

1.  “Let’s worry about us.”

2.  “Let’s have more fun than any other team in the country.”

One word to Describe his Team

FAST

If you watched the Blue/White Game, you saw it last night.  “We gotta play to their strengths so we better play fast.”

BBNBA by the Numbers

Calipari had to take the time to humblebrag while in front of the cameras.  Here are a few numbers he dropped to Marcus Spears who’s still trying to get a scholarship because Cal “makes millionaires.”

  • 75% of the players on scholarship get drafted.
  • 75% of those players get a second contract.
  • 3 players graduated in 3 years.
  • 3.0 average GPA

Calipari the Quarterback

Marcus Spears couldn’t handle Coach Cal in this passing competition.  Tebow was too scared to even try.
