Calipari unleashes CoachCal.com, new Facebook page and book


Coach Calipari getting his point across
from wildcatdcorner.com

UK Coach John Calipari is proving to be the busiest man in sports. He is not only recruiting and coaching, but he is seems to be techno savvy and is everywhere on the internet. I mean everywhere. Not only does the prolific tweeter have almost half a million (as of today) on Twitter, but he now has a website and a new Facebook account. Oh, did I mention he has a book coming out soon.

The new website coachcal.com contains articles, videos and a blog. It is free, but it has various memberships to sign up for which does cost money. The proceeds will benefit the Calipari Family Foundation For Children. When the season starts it ought to be a great place to learn all things UK basketball.

Become a fan of Coach Calipari's Facebook page. There are almost 20,000 fans of that page already.

Lastly, he has a book coming out on Sept. 1 called Bounce Back: Overcoming Setbacks to Succeed in Business and in Life.

Like myself you probably can't wait for basketball season to start. With the about outlets you can get your Calipari fix in many different ways.

Hooray! Kentucky Wildcats Get Into The NCAA Tournament

I was actually a little surprised that we (UK) got into the tournament this year. After losing in the first round of the SEC Tournament to Georgia I thought we were done. On top of that Georgia wins the SEC Tourney and then a few minutes into Selection Sunday I see that they let Arkansas in. I was saying to myself there is no way that they are going to have 6 SEC teams into the Tourney. But, thank goodness they did.

We are playing Marquette in this first round on Thursday in Anaheim, California. It is going to be a very tough game for UK. Cross your fingers that we make it the second round.
