Happy Mother's Day to Ellen Calipari!

by: Maggie Davis05/10/20@MaggieDavisKSR
John Calipari may be the head coach for the winningest college basketball program in the history of the sport, but there's no question about who really runs the Calipari household. Ellen Calipari is the family's princess, the best birthday brownie baker, the Instagram queen and the one who always remembers to take out the trash. Today is for Ellen, and for all of the other mothers in the BBN.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at KSR!

He may not know how to take out the garbage cans on trash day, but Coach Cal does know how to buy flowers. He treated his "roommate" to some beautiful roses this year for Mother's Day, and Brad Calipari even made and delivered breakfast in bed. Of course, Calipari also had to get in a shoutout for all of the "mama's boys" he's coached... https://twitter.com/UKCoachCalipari/status/1259483197781532672 In honor of Ellen's day, let's look back to some of her best troll jobs, especially those that came at the expense of her husband and kids. For example, that time she had a little too much fun with a John Calipari mask on Halloween: Don't forget all of the times she's imitated her daughters' mirror selfies. It's the sincerest form of flattery, right?

She always cheers on Brad, even if she makes fun of his outfits, too:
