John Calipari responds to claim he borrowed his neighbor's weed-eater

A neighbor claimed John Calipari borrowed a weed-eater and never returned it on a Zillow listing, prompting a response from the Kentucky coach.

Kentucky Wildcats head coach John Calipari responded to a claim that he borrowed but never returned a weed-eater from a neighbor on Sunday evening. The claim was made a few weeks ago on a Zillow listing:

“As per seller: UK fans, this house is close enough for Coach Calipari to borrow your weed-eater but apparently too far for him to return it.”

Calipari was asked about the listing on Sunday after the Blue-White Scrimmage and responded in classic coach Cal fashion:

“I borrowed his weed-eater?” Calipari said. “I don’t even know what a weed-eater is! I wouldn’t even know what to do with it, and so anyway, I think it sold his house because it got everybody’s attention to this guy’s house.”

As of now, the listing is still up with an asking price of $849,000, although no word on the likelihood of a neighborly relationship with Cal in the future.
