Before hitting the road, Kentucky head coach John Calipari, forward PJ Washington, and guard Ashton Hagans each spoke with the media about their upcoming matchup with the Vols, talking about things they learned from their win on January 16 and why they’re confident yet again this time around.
John Calipari discussed his Naismith national coach of the year snub, gave us a health update on forward Reid Travis, the atmosphere they expect in Knoxville, and why the team found so much success against Tennessee at home a few weeks back.
PJ Washington discussed the trash talk between both teams, going heads up with Tennessee star Grant Williams again, how they plan to adjust without Reid Travis, and why they were able to dominate against the Vols last time around.
