Calipari's daughters respond to Duke's Twitter shot at Kentucky

There was another chapter written in the recruiting battle between Duke and Kentucky on Thursday, as five-star center Marques Bolden chose the Blue Devils over the Wildcats.

Landing the No. 16 player in the country is certainly reason to celebrate, and the Duke basketball Twitter account took the opportunity to troll Kentucky coach John Calipari.

Earlier in the week, the legendary coach made some comments about recruits coming to Kentucky to "learn how to fish" and not "just giving them the fish." Many viewed this as a shot at the Duke program, so the Blue Devils threw in a couple fishing emojis after Bolden's commitment.

The tweet was quickly deleted, but that didn't stop Calipari's daughters from chiming in on Twitter. Younger sister Megan started with a shot at her sibling.

The eldest sister Erin quickly responded.

Great response by Calipari's daughters, but since Duke landed Bolden, we'll give the victory to the Blue Devils on this one.
