John Calipari already has a historic class for 2013, with the Harrison Twins, James Young, Marcus Lee, and Derek Willis.
If he adds Julius Randle and Andrew Wiggins, which some think could reclassify soon and join this monster class, could this be the team that goes 40-0?
Dan Wetzel looks at that possibility and would not be surprised, if all the pieces fit into the puzzle, that John Calipari realizes his dream of a perfect season.
That isn’t recruiting, that’s drafting.
It’s also the kind of talent that can get you dreaming of 40-0. Such an accomplishment would also take chemistry, luck, health, coaching, karma and a million other variables, not the least of which is beating SEC rival Florida two or three times when the Gators are putting together their own strong recruiting class.
Chasing the first perfect season since the 1976 Indiana Hoosiers starts with talent though. Without the players, none of the other stuff matters. Calipari certainly isn’t worried about senior leadership or game experience.
“If I had my choice between experience and talent,” he said, “I’m going to take talent.”
It is almost like a Kentucky fan’s dream, since being in the NIT just 4 years ago, that now people are talking about a possible undefeated season.
Would you have ever imagined this would be happening?
Great time to be a Kentucky basketball fan.
