Roy Williams one-ups John Calipari at in-home visit with Julius Randle
Posted Sep 11, 2012
Kentucky coach John Calipari brought the "wow" factor on the first day of Prestonwood Christian (Plano, Texas) forward Julius Randle's in-home visits, whipping out his 2012 national championship ring. Well, after our report of Randle and his mother Carolyn Kyles being wildly impressed with Calipari's bling, North Carolina coach Roy Williams came prepared to one-up Calipari. "More like 31-up," Randle said.
