Pat Forde of Yahoo.com does his best to give John Calipari compliments, but of course he also takes jabs at him without gasping for air.
Forde has listed Cal as the #2 most intriguing coach of the upcoming season while calling him a blowhard and paranoid.
Here is his take:
2. John Calipari, Kentucky. Has assembled the most talented roster of the 21st century, and perhaps beyond. Maybe the tallest team ever, too. Now he will try to play platoon basketball with 10 (or more) stars. Calipari will be at his blowhard best (“We’re trying to do something never done in college basketball”) and paranoid worst (“We are going to have to be mentally tough enough to not be sabotaged”). It will not be dull.
Some things never change I guess.
