John Calipari turns boos into Lous during national title game

Kentucky coach John Calipari knew he was being booed Monday night at the national championship game when members of the 2015 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame class were honored. After all, he was in a stadium filled with fans of other teams.

Calipari later joked on Twitter about what sounded like booing around the time his name was announced.

Calipari was standing next to Indianapolis native and fellow honoree Louie Dampier at the time. There might have been a few Lous directed at Dampier.

Dampier played guard at Kentucky in the 1960s and starred in the defunct ABA for nine seasons with the Kentucky Colonels. He is the league's all-time leader in points, assists, games and minutes played.
