31516 quote



They’re not stealing my joy, that little group of ten,
Who says this year, its Top 50 wins; last year, its road wins;
Two years ago, it was RPI. It’s a moving target! They’re not 
stealing my joy. If they think they are, they’re out of their mind. 
They build my team up, thank you, thank you!
I was irked that the results of today’s SEC Championship weren’t
taken into account. A&M got a three-seed. Did we not play a 
basketball game today? I’m happy for A&M, they got a three.
I said what in the world, are we going to get a three or a two?
I was surprised we didn’t get a five. We’ve never had it easy.
I don’t want it easy. Let’s do this thing.
- Coach John Calipari

Summarized in four C's. They are Curiosity,

Champions are champions not because they do
Anything extraordinary but because they do the
Ordinary things better than anyone else.

To the occasion. Champions see what they can
Become rather than live in the past.

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence.
Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear.
Perhaps the action you take will be successful;
perhaps different action or adjustments will have
To follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
- Norman Vincent Peale

The best you can hope for as a coach is a team
That each individual is playing to their best version.
A team that is playing confident, individually and
Collectively, and a team that feels empowered.
- Coach John Calipari

Confidence comes from within.  It doesn’t come
From a coach and it doesn’t come from anybody else.  
It comes from within. There’s no short cuts.  
There’s no easy way. There’s no one building you up
Even though you know it’s not true because the
Minute the first raindrop hits your shoulder, you’re done.
- Coach John Calipari

Biggest play of the game (LSU Home Finale) for me,
They ran a play that they called from a foul line huddle,
And they did an option that they kind of created on their
Own. At the next timeout he told them … That made me
So happy that you guys did it on your own, you tried
Something, you talked each other through it.  
You’re even becoming more empowered.
- Coach John Calipari

Living without a definite major purpose promises
Nothing but a scant living.

You learn something out of everything, and you
Come to realize more than ever that we're all here
For a certain space of time, and, and then it's going
To be over, and you better make this count.

Alex is one of the most humble guys
I’ve ever played with. Class act on and off the court.
- Nerlens Noel

Wish I could be there with AP on senior day because I
Consider him one of my best friends. One of the nicest
Guys I’ve ever been around but he’d be the first one to
Dunk on you. Will always remember this quote he always
Used to use … courage doesn’t always roar.
Think it describes him perfectly because he didn’t have
To be the most talkative guy on the court because he let
His game do the talking for him. He’s a straight beast.
No matter what happens with this game for the both of us,
I know I’ll have him as a lifetime friend along with all the
Other guys I played with at UK.
- Kyle Wiltjer

AP is a very hardworking and humble. He is one of my very
Best friends, he will always be one of my brothers we’ve
Been through a lot together. We went from literally the
Bottom to the top in the country making history.
Congrats on your senior night.
- Willie Cauley-Stein

Alex wasn’t special because of his athletic ability or
Basketball ability. Alex was special because he was Alex.
One of the greatest teammates I’ve ever had and one of
The best humans I’ve ever met.
- Karl-Anthony Towns



3516 quotes



He’s a great kid. We’ve had great students here.
Some better than Alex that have played here.
We’ve had players that have left after a year.
We’ve had players leave after two.
We’ve had players stay all four.
Each guy is on his own path.
Some things make that happen.
I’ll give you an example …
You say to Alex, Would you have left after a year if you could?
He would have said, Yeah, I would have left after a year if I could.
These kids are all on different paths.
Proud of Alex. He’s such a great kid.
The injuries and the things that he’s had to overcome,
You just root for a kid like that.
We’ve had three kids graduate in three years, Alex being one of them. 
He was Academic All-American this year so there’s a lot of good stuff that’s happened for him,
But again the injuries and the stuff held him back a little bit.

- Coach John Calipari comments on UK Senior Alex Poythress

Among the things you can give and still keep
Are your word, a smile, and a grateful heart.
- Zig Ziglar

If you’re playing against eight, it really doesn’t matter.
You’ve got a swagger like we’re gonna beat all eight of you,
It doesn’t matter.  We’re not quite there.  We started,
We started. We had a couple guys step up and play with 
Confidence.  Now we need a team full of guys to do that.
Coach John Calipari

Always positive.

Religion, income bracket, and background,
You have the capacity to create change.

Before you begin a thing, remind yourself
That difficulties and delays quite impossible
To foresee are ahead. You can only see one
Thing clearly, and that is your goal. Form a
Mental vision of that and cling to it through
Thick and thin.
- Kathleen Norris
