This game used to be THE premier college basketball OOC game, and I have a feeling that with Coaches Gillispie and Crean at the helm, pulling in top 10 recruiting classes, it will be back. These are the five I’ve actually seen that stand out. I’m aware of the 92-90 regional final win over IU [...]

PLAYER UNREST MAD LIB

The internet is a wonderful thing, but it can also do more harm than good. It’s December, and if you’re a fan of college basketball, you know that December is the month of transfer rumors. About 3% of them come true. UK Wildcat Country is not a place where you’ll hear these things because I [...]
HATED HOOSIERS

Boy, do I ever hate me some Indiana. The only redeeming qualities the state has are Larry Bird, Dominique Ferguson (along with Sean Woods, Kyle Macy and other Wildcats who escaped from the state), Norman Dale and my mother’s side of my family. Other than that, I can do without Indiana, especially the drivers. But [...]
WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS…

…apparently does not stay in Vegas. Get some. It had the feelings of a trap game, a game where Kentucky would go through the motions high off of their Vegas hangover of joy, win by 20+ points and not look very impressive in doing it. When a team with no TV exposure like Lamar is [...]

First off, it sounds like Ramon Harris is going to be just fine. All of the tests they ran last night didn’t show anything but he was kept overnight for observation. We saw Michael Porter on the bench for the second half but I don’t think he was all there. He looked dazed and confused [...]
What Have We Become?

I’ve been reading message board posts and articles about how Kentucky fans are debating whether or not to travel to a bowl game to watch the Cats play. The most used excuse is that these guys are not very good and that they are disappointed in how the season turned out. Another one is that [...]
VEGAS PART II

Looking back, there’s a lot more that needs to be said about Vegas. My excitement is at such a high that I might rehash some points from yesterday’s column, so don’t hold that against me. According to Ken Pomeroy and his magical computer, Kentucky has the #11 defense in Division I. That isn’t too bad [...]
