Geez Cal, sweet put down. A regular laugh machine.
calipari at recent press conference:
"Last week, Kentucky assistant coach Kenny Payne admitted that he had not yet read his bosses new book, "Success Is The Only Option." ... He opened up a door for Calipari, who slammed it shut with a theory why Payne had not yet read it.
"He went to Louisville," Calipari said. "He doesn't read."

How many of cool cal's one-and-dones have blown off classes completely in the second semester?

While they were never any official announcements regarding academic eligibility, it was basically acknowledged that Daniel Orton (part of the 2010 freshman class with Cousins, Wall, and Bledsoe) blew off the second semester of classes and would have been ineligible had he returned. There were rumors about Bledsoe blowing off his classes as well, but it appears that he was OK. Since then, UK has had no reported issues of OAD's having second semester academic issues.

I seem to recall that LSU threw Pistol Pete Maravich out of school the day after his last game. Pete made LSU so money without going to classes it was funny !
I see zero problem with Cal's wise crack and jokes in this context in general, even if one's hands aren't 100% entirely clean. It's OK to be amused every once in a while.
Would you have been OK with it if Cal had made a joke about prostitutes and recruits? As far as I know, Cal hasn't been involved in that sort of thing. A joke on that topic probably would've been in much poorer taste than what he said here...
