Coach Cal happened to be standing next to UConn’s locker room after they upset #2 Michigan State last night. Coach Cal loved what he heard.

“I can’t tell you how excited that team was,” Calipari said. “And it made me smile. It’s not about me, or the coach. It’s about these kids. Those guys were up there, I’m telling you, doing back flips in the locker room. And when Kemba Walker walked in late, they exploded. It made me smile and say, ‘This is why we do what we do.'”

He also went on to talk about how he underestimated the talent of Kemba Walker.

I doubt the Cats will underestimate Kemba Walker tonight. Should be a great game, and hopefully the Cats will be the ones celebrating in the locker room.
