On Cal, after watching ESPN one and done, it's clear that is his pitch and focus...put kids in the NBA. Education and even winning championships is secondary for him. You would think he would do his homework on a specific families'values and tailor/temper his "NBA or bust" pitch a little though.
There are many things wrong with Calipari, but he is one of the most socially adept people I have ever met. The suggestion that he would walk into Mark Smith's living room and talk down education without any respect or understanding of how much the family values education is beyond gullible IMO. Again, if you say banana really slowly...
