John Calipari responds to Bob Huggins' claim that Oscar Tshiebwe doesn't work hard

Following his team’s win over Elon yesterday, West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins couldn’t help but take a shot at his former big man Oscar Tshiebwe. Huggins, a friend of John Calipari’s, claimed that Tshiebwe decided to leave West Virginia because he didn’t want to work hard.

“We lost an alleged McDonald’s All-American because he didn’t like the fact that we were making him do things that were hard,” Huggins said.

You better believe John Calipari was asked about this tonight following Kentucky’s 77-59 win over Ohio. Calipari claimed he hadn’t heard Huggins’ comments yet (lol), but spoke for everyone by saying Tshiebwe’s performance this season is undeniable proof he works hard.
