The Book
The book is a handsome custom hard-cover book bound in black leather. The words “John Calipari” and “Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2015” are foil-stamped in gold on the cover. The project also included a custom gift box for safe-keeping of this prestigious book. The book was presented to Calipari at the class of 2015 induction ceremony in April.
