John Calipari didn’t sound encouraging when asked about the return of Jarred Vanderbilt on the SEC coaches’ teleconference this morning.
“My guess would be hard this weekend,”lipari said on the call. “He wants to play, but I just don’t see it right now being able to put it him in there and feel comfortable about it.”
“He knows if he’s not able to go full bore, I’m not playing him…for him or us,” Calipari added. “If he’s at 85-90 percent, I don’t think I play him — for him or us. He’s proven who he is as a player, but more importantly, anyone that steps on that court that can’t bring it, these tournament games are life and death and the other team is going to bring it.”
