John Calipari Showed Recruit Julius Randle His 2012 Championship Ring, so Roy Williams Showed Up with 30 Rings
Julius Randle, the high school basketball prospect last seem getting abused by future No. 1 pick Andrew Wiggins, is coveted by every college basketball coach in the country. Kentucky coach John Calipari visited Randle recently and to impress the 17-year-old, showed him the Wildcats’ 2012 Championship ring.
Then Roy Williams showed up the next day and, hearing Randle was impressed by bling, arrived with a case of 30 rings, according to USA Today High School Sports:
Williams opened a case of 30 rings — everything from conference titles to Final Four berths to national titles — that he’d collected over the years. “When coach Williams opened the case you almost couldn’t look directly in it for fear of going blind,” Randle joked. “It was crazy.”
Then, Williams closed the visit like a champ: He whipped out Michael Jordan’s 1992 NBA Championship ring. Note to Scott Drew, who doesn’t have the rings: Show up with grills. That’ll impress Randle. [USA Today High School Sports]

Heard this on Mike and Mike this week. Hilarious story.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:24 PM
So when did Jordan pawn that ring to cover a gambling debt?
September 14th, 2012 at 1:25 PM
Also where are the rings his players get for being browbeat into staying an extra year and losing millions once their draft stock plummets? Or did Jostens have those on backorder?
September 14th, 2012 at 1:28 PM
He’d sell his Bobcats ownership before he sold his bling I would think
yeah, because everyone knows that Roy is the worst at this.
/says no one
//coach K, however….

Wiggins looks like an incredible talent. I watched his highlight video a few weeks ago. He reminds me of Tracy McGrady.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:30 PM
I just imagined Jordan thinking “holy shit I forgot I own the Bobcats” and now can’t stop laughing.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:32 PM
yeah, and then dropping a cool 7 figures on some college football games this weekend.

All in I’ve probably watched an hour of that Beyonce gif.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:36 PM
Does anybody (cleanly) beat out Calipari for recruits any more?
September 14th, 2012 at 1:37 PM
And you’ve seen her boobs for a combined 1.5 seconds.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:38 PM

linky?
September 14th, 2012 at 1:38 PM
did i miss something over lunch?
September 14th, 2012 at 1:39 PM
And probably the best 1.5 seconds spent in the last year too…
I’ve watched it 10x. SOLID!
September 14th, 2012 at 1:41 PM
Men are fascinated with boobies. I cant imagine being so excited about seeing dong.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:41 PM
I’d like to see either a slowed down version of the gif, or the video.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:42 PM
What do you do?

I’d say according to Jordan’s dad, he didn’t
Too soon??
September 14th, 2012 at 1:45 PM

Yep.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:49 PM
So basically her boobs were assaulting her wardrobe, and in their last act of defiance knocked her top up to her neck? This is nothing short of amazing.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:49 PM
Nice try, soused

Awesome shot of the NYC 9/11 ceremony from The Big Picture.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:51 PM
And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids
September 14th, 2012 at 1:55 PM
from a different angle.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:55 PM
You know.. the only thing 17-year old boys care about
September 14th, 2012 at 1:58 PM
So excited for this tonight.
September 14th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
Is confused.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:00 PM
Rowdy good time, go fight a bear.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:03 PM
You really are a wild one.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:04 PM
The Baltimore Zoo does this once a year as well. Really wanted to go in 2011 but missed out.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:09 PM
Did you see Magic Mike?
September 14th, 2012 at 2:13 PM
I seem to remember her thinking Magic Mike was the most revolting thing ever.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:15 PM
So she’s putting this on men, but when in actuality, she’s just a prude.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:16 PM
I think she just hates Tatum.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:17 PM
Also I mean she’s clearly down with busting up inside her so she’s not that much of a prude.
September 14th, 2012 at 2:28 PM
Where was Tami Hansbrough? She could have shown more than rings.
