Trophy Tour another creative strategy by Calipari

A trophy tour for the fans? Who would have thought of an idea? Kentucky coach John Calipari, of course.
Less than 24 hours are Calipari landed heralded prep star Nerlens Noel, the Kentucky coach was touring the state with the NCAA Championship Trophy in hand, giving Big Blue Nation a chance to get a glimpse of the school’s eighth national championship trophy.
Calipari knows how important Kentucky basketball is in this state and isn’t afraid to try new things, especially for the fans from one end of the state to another. The trophy tour, which began today and concludes Friday, is Calipari’s latest creative idea. Not many coaches would take the time to meet and greet fans and let them get up close and personal with the coach and the trophy.
The Kentucky coach deserves a pat on the back for taking the time out of his schedule to meet and greet followers from all walks of life in the Bluegrass.
