08:16 AM ET 12.05 | Tuesday's 88-56 win over Samford won't save Kentucky from John Calipari. [The] 19th-ranked Cats (5-3) will commence daily 7 a.m. conditioning drills before classes -- and before afternoon practices. Because after racing out to a 45-14 halftime lead, Kentucky outscored Samford (2-8) by a single point in the second half. "I can't think of any other reason why you wouldn't come out in the second half and play," Calipari said, "so we have to chalk it up to they're not in shape. They will be." Calipari said the phrase "in shape" 14 times during his 10-minute postgame news conference. Star freshmen Nerlens Noel and Alex Poythress dominated the first half. ... In the second half, both guys vanished.

A middling second half that saw UK only outscore Samford by one point brought out the drill sergeant in Calipari. He declared the opening of "Camp Cal," which he described as three weeks of running at 7 a.m. in addition to normal practices in the afternoon (and possibly evenings, as well).
"We're going to be the most in-shape team inside the next three weeks," said Calipari, who linked Kentucky's failure to obliterate Samford to a lack of conditioning. Minus a sadistic laugh, he cited the involvement of UK strength coach Ray "Rock" Oliver, first introduced to the Big Blue Nation as former Coach Rick Pitino's Marquis de Sade of the barbell realm.
"Twenty to 30 minutes of straight running," Calipari said. "Heart rates will be high. Not heart rates at 120. Your heart rate is going to be at 175 (or) 180.

His guys better get used to what Calipari looks like in the thread pic. "You're not done! Keep running!"

If The HairLine can keep his talent motivated, saw where he benched the C due to bad attitude at practice, and it got the kid's attention PDQ. Nice.

I was at the game, Young was a beast. A lot more hustle than normal. Billy also proved that Young was not needed for the Gators to be successful ala Wilbekin at the start of the year.
No longer worried about Young being in foul trouble.
