“Had a chance to meet @CaitlinClark22 at the @WoodenAward ceremony, and I am very impressed,”Coach Cal said in his X accoount. He also highlighted how “Caitlin has transformed women’s college basketball, but it hasn’t changed who she is and how she treats others. Special person!”
The fans were shocked
Calipari’s words were enough for fans to comment en masse on the unexpected praising.
“Two goats. One’s an Arkansas head coach now never imagined cheering you on, @CoachCalArk but can’t wait to start…” one fan wrote in response to Calipari’s tweet.
