Add John Calipari's dogs to the injury report
Kentucky’s injury bug extends to John Calipari’s own house. On his radio show last night, Calipari revealed that both of his dogs are on the IR. Palmer has a torn ACL while McGruff recently had neck surgery. As a result, Calipari is taking them on “walks” in a stroller. Calipari shared the injury update — his most detailed in some time — when a caller’s dog (named Peyton Manning) wouldn’t stop barking in the background.
“I got my two [dogs]. One has a torn ACL. Have you ever heard of a dog having a torn ACL? Never heard of it. I was going to — I said, ‘Operate. I don’t care. Fix them.’ He said it’s too small. So we’re worried about that one. And then McGruff had surgery on his neck. I go home and walk them. I have a stroller. It’s like I’ve got two babies in a stroller walking my dogs carrying the poop bag.”

Calipari pushing his dogs in a stroller must be seen to be believed. Thanks to Kyle Tucker, we have proof:
Ellen Calipari confirmed the injuries on Instagram, working in her husband’s go-to line, “I haven’t seen them.”
Ellen, we’re going to need video of this.
