Trying not to leave anyone out

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – The festivities start Thursday.

John Calipari will be making his way into the Basketball Hall of Fame.

Springfield, Massachusetts look out!  Here comes the Solid Blue entourage.

It’s a big honor…especially for Cal…who acknowledged the HOF nomination alone at this point in his career is beyond a dream.

With all the accolades on paper…and Larry Brown, Julius Erving and Pat Riley as presenters…the pressure is on Cal to perform and nail the 8 minute speech he’ll be allowed to give.

Which, if you ask Calipari, is the most difficult thing about the whole process.

Hear from Cal in the video.
