John Calipari Win Quotations

When you beat a team on a 10-game win streak, that's a great win. We had chances to get it to 16, 18, 20 and we're just not capable of it yet.

I said I don't care what conference they're from, they must be teams that are going to win 17 or more games. The bottom of our schedule was dragging us down. You can schedule teams with great names, but if they go 7-21, it kills you.

I said 'I'm coming in here to build a program to get us into the top 10 and give us a chance to win a national championship,' and I haven't wavered from that.

It was a great win for them, a great win for our league and for their program. We may play them one more time.

You can't win this kind of game. To give ourselves a chance to win as bad as we were playing, I was stunned.

It's a good win against a team that was 9-1. If we don't beat somebody by 40, everybody is saying, 'What's going on with the Tigers?' They have scholarships too. They came out and had a game plan on how they were going to play, but they turned it over 19 times.

I did a better job last year than I did this year. Awards are great. Our award we're trying to get here is trying to win this tournament. I'm happy for Rodney, happy for all the players who get these awards because they've worked hard for them.
