NBA executive talks to Jeff Goodman about John Wall, Daniel Orton
This is from Jeff Goodman’s blog on Foxports.com. Some really interesting stuff about a couple of UK’s heralded freshmen: I just found out the Preseason AP Poll will be released on Thursday. Kansas will be the clear-cut No. 1 team in the land, but it’ll be interesting to see who gets the nod at No. [...]
Big Blue Madness 5 days away: Top 10 reasons why this will be a long week
Don’t get me wrong, I love UK football. Even though this season hasn’t gone exactly as planned, I have still enjoyed watching and supporting Rich Brooks and the ‘Cats, and I will continue to do so. However, it’s just not UK basketball. Nothing approaches UK basketball. For my money, the debut of UK basketball on [...]
In case you haven’t seen this from UK Photo Day
This photo from The Cat’s Pause has been everywhere I’ve looked this morning, but in case you haven’t seen it, I needed to make sure you did. It’s nice to see these guys in UK uniforms.
Let’s have some football fun with the UK basketball team
Rightfully so, today has been all about the Rick Pitino-Karen Sypher story. However, I’ve seen some people taking pleasure in a really, really bad situation, which is very difficult for me to understand. I decided I wanted to have some silly, pointless fun with UK basketball. We’ve got plenty to be excited about right now [...]

Dwight Perry and Matt Scherbenske both have Twitter accounts and yesterday each used theirs to give their reactions to John Calipari’s decision to cut three of the four walkons left on the UK roster. Here’s what they had to say: Dwight Perry Thanks to the whole big blue nation for the support over the past [...]
Options, options, options: A look at some potential lineups for 2009-2010
I know we’re a good three months away from the official debut of the 2009-2010 Kentucky Wildcats at Big Blue Madness, but I think I speak for a lot of UK fans when I say that I can’t stop thinking about basketball. Football is great and I love UK football and I’m looking forward to [...]
Never a quiet week in UK basketball
Outside of the beginning of the July recruiting period, I figured this past week wouldn’t be the worst to go MIA because of a trip down to South Florida for work. Well, it turned out that there wasn’t any earth shattering Kentucky news, but we did get a pretty steady stream of stuff going on [...]
An early look at UK’s ’09-’10 rotation
When I found out once and for all that Xavier Henry would stick with his Kansas commitment, I immediately started wondering “How is John Calipari going to structure the rotation for his first team at Kentucky?” I figured that the best predictor of next year’s rotation would be the rotations for Calipari’s last few teams [...]
WKYT on UK summer pickup games
Accounts of battles between John Wall and Eric Bledsoe are already becoming the stuff of legend. Seeing the two potentially play together has to be a terrorizing prospect for opponents. The two are part of UK’s top ranked recruiting class that is now in Lexington getting accustomed to eachother and the rest of their new [...]
Waiting on Jodie Meeks
As Carl spelled out so well in covering for me while I was traveling in the home state of Eric Bledsoe and DeMarcus Cousins, we now know who will NOT have a scholarship next year. All that’s left to determine now is whether Jodie Meeks will be lucky number 13 on the roster or whether [...]
