Mark Richt quote sums up what John Calipari is all about

Mark Richt and John Calipari share the view of the people they coach being more important than championships they win.

Mark Richt was unceremoniously fired from Georgia last week, mainly due to the fact he didn't lead the Bulldogs to enough championships.

In addition to winning an average of 10 games per season in Athens, Richt managed to get his team to 'only' two SEC Championships and two BCS bowl wins along with six top-10 finishes. For all of his accomplishments on the field, Richt is most known by his players for how special he is off it.
