LEXINGTON, Ky. – Mark Stoops and previous Kentucky football coaches have to prepare for the question:
What’s it like to coach football in the Southeastern Conference at a basketball school?
Almost every year when UK takes its turn on the stage at SEC Football media days, the topic comes up. What is far less common is Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari fielding questions about the football program at his own media day.
“Do you remember where two years ago we’d be sad and disappointed after a loss?” Calipari said Thursday when asked how he has enjoyed watching Stoops' 5-1 team.
