John Calipari likes most opposing head coaches, including Tennessee’s Rick Barnes.
The UK head man admitted today, however, that a few coaches are jagoffs.
Check out his comments:
“The only thing that’s easier is if you do get dinged, I can walk up and seriously say, ‘I’m happy for you.’ And I am happy for him, and he knows it. There are other games that I just say, ‘Good job.’ And I’m not happy for you. At all. You jagoff.”
Calipari noted that “jagoff” was his Pittsburgh coming out. A google search defines jagoff as “a stupid, irritating, or contemptible person.” It also notes that the term is primarily used in western Pennsylvania, which makes sense for Calipari, a Moon Township, Penn., native.
