Here’s some news that won’t surprise you: John Calipari’s favorite rapper is Drake. You probably could have guessed that, but SB Nation’s Ricky O’Donnell confirmed it this weekend at the Nike Global Summit in Chicago. Inspired by all the fantastic rap music playing during timeouts and in between games, O’Donnell decided to ask all the college basketball coaches in attendance which rap artists or songs they like and don’t like.
Of course, Cal said Drake. “If I’m listening to anything, it’s Drake. That’s my guy,” he parroted. Duh. Did you hear that, 17, 18-year-old basketball players?
