Dan Le Batard Dismayed With ESPN's John Calipari Spin
Posted Jun 23, 2016
Dan Le Batard is squeamish about ESPN providing Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari with “our entire platform” to hawk Kentucky’s wares, and it did not sit well with him. “This is unseemly,” Le Batard said. “This is ESPN being in on the deal. And there’s no getting around this. I can moralize and gasbag all I want, but this is ESPN in on the deal."
