If you know one thing about Kentucky’s John Calipari, it’s that he loves to talk about all the NBA draft picks he has produced. However, even more than that, he loves talking about the value of the contracts his players have signed in the NBA, now totaling over $3 billion.
This number is one he has proudly mentioned a number of times, making it a can’t-miss element of his recruitment strategy for the Wildcats. It has been mentioned in a number of official statements from the Kentucky athletic department and is something Calipari references regularly in interviews and speeches, and most recently on Twitter.
