This is pretty hysterical coming from Calipari, considering he’s had the likes of LeBron James and Drake on campus before.
This, according to Jim Boeheim, has upset Kentucky’s John Calipari, who thinks Coach K is getting an unfair recruiting advantage. While Calipari’s concerns may be valid, it’s important to remember that Calipari coached the Dominican Republic’s national team from 2011-12. Calipari then landed Karl Towns, the nation’s No. 1 recruit in 2014 and a previous member of the Dominican’s squad.
Coach K disputed Cal’s comments.
“We recruited a lot of really good guys before I coached the United States team,” Krzyzewski told reporters today. “In fact, a lot of them have their jerseys retired. A lot of them have been national players of the year. I don’t think anybody I’ve recruited since I’ve been the head coach of USA has been national player of the year.”
John Calipari normally gets the top recruiting class, but this year Duke is bringing in the top class, according to ESPN. Don’t feel too bad for Cal because Kentucky has the number two class.
