John Calipari says College GameDay is more important for fans than players

For the 17th time in school history, the Kentucky Wildcats will be featured on ESPN College GameDay when the Kansas Jayhawks come to town tomorrow afternoon. It will be the program’s eighth trip to Lexington, tied for the second-most of any location in the nation, and the 10th straight year Kentucky will make an appearance on the broadcast.

Back on Feb. 13, 2010, Kentucky set a record when 22,144 fans attended the morning show at Rupp Arena to prepare for the Wildcats’ big matchup against Tennessee in John Calipari’s first year in Lexington.

Needless to say, when the College GameDay crew is in town, it’s important.
