re: Calipari gives LSU all the credit

quote:For every player Dale Brown helped out, there are a handful of non-players he helped out, too. You wouldn't believe how many people's lives Brown changed regardless of whether they could drive to the hole. Calipari bears a similar outward appearance, but any comparison between him and Brown should be followed by a question as to what kind of Good Samaritan he is away from the game.
He's actually a lot like Dale Brown, in my opinion, and I really liked Dale Brown. He may not always toe the NCAA line, but he does right by his players.
This is not a judgment against Calipari; I don't know a thing about his personal life.

I do not have a problem with him, or what he does, if anyone can blame him they should be banned for ignorance.
He is not a bad coach either X's and O's, obviously is a tireless recruiter. Do not know anything about his personal life but I certainly can not see him as a scumbag.

Yes, I remember that about Brown. That's why I respected him so much and enjoyed rooting for him. From what I gather from following KentuckySportsRadio (I grew up in KY but attended LSU), Calipari is similar, though he doesn't have the length of career, so I wouldn't say he has done as much, but I do think they are similar personalities and have similar commitments to their players and communities.
