Wall, Boogie and Patterson recognized, while Calipari gets the cold shoulder

John Wall wins player of the year, Demarcus Cousins wins freshman of the year, Patterson is first team All-SEC, but their coach gets the cold shoulder. How could you NOT give Coach Calipari the SEC Coach of The Year award?

[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]Calipari managed to take a team that was in the NIT a year before and lead them to an SEC Championship and made them the best team in the nation (arguably). Maybe his critics feel he’s not a good coach and he only wins because of the high level of talent. I would still argue that recruiting is part of coaching, especially in this day and age. I just don’t understand it..

Here’s what Coach Cal had to say about the SEC Tournament, Patrick Patterson confused on why Coach Cal is not coach of the year (tell me about it Piddy Patt) and our freshman’s reactions to player of the year honors.
