Head coach John Calipari had some interesting comments on the Dan Patrick Show Thursday morning regarding John Wall and the “Hoops for Haiti” telethon. Calipari said he would wrestle John Wall to the ground if he bypassed the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft to come back to school for another year.”If he came to me and said he was the No. 1 pick in the draft, and he wanted to come back, we’d probably be wrestling around on the floor because there’s no reason other than me trying to win more games that he should come back,” Calipari said on the show.Calipari also showed some love for Patrick when he brought up Sunday’s telethon for the relief efforts in Haiti.”I’m going to kiss you right on the lips,” Calipari said. “Can I get through the pone? Have you ever been kissed on the lips by a man?”Yeah, you read that right.Listen to that and more on Patrick’s podcast. Also, check out Dan Wetzel’s column on Yahoo! Sports on the success of “Hoops for Haiti.”
