You’re right in thinking that Kentucky Wildcats Coach John Calipari means a lot to the Kelley family in Lexington, KY. They love their coach so much that they carved a 10-acre patch of cornfield in his likeness.  

We think a lot of Coach Calipari,” said farm owner John Kelley. “He’s almost like part of the family. I think we might be related, somewhere way back,” he laughs.
