A Quick Reminder in the Bledsoe Case
With all the uproar about the Eric Bledsoe situation between UofL and UK fans, we just wanted to throw out a little clarification on this matter. We’re seeing a lot of arguments over the Bledsoe deal with quotes like “NCAA cleared him, it should end there”. They did clear him, but that’s not the issue [...]
Eric Bledsoe’s crazy shot
I was wondering last night how long it would take a ‘Cat fan to have Eric Bledsoe’s crazy shot he made during Friday’s season opener against Morehead State. I put the over/under at 24 hours…anybody who knows UK fans even a little bit would have taken the under on that.
Notes from UK’s Saturday Morning and Afternoon Practices
All of the hype surrounded Friday night’s Big Blue Madness festivities. The lights, the introductions, the glitz, the all-star game caliber scrimmage and of course John Calipari’s State of the Bluegrass address. However, if you wanted to get a first look at what this Kentucky team is really going to be like, than Saturday’s morning [...]
Electric Big Blue Madness introduces Commonwealth to its team
Big Blue Madness is an event I’ve always wanted to attend, but it’s never quite worked out…I think I picked a good one for my first time. For the 18,000 or so in attendance, what a spectacle. Coach John Calipari and UK Athletics recognized a couple opportunities in the way they put together the [...]
UK’s point guard prospects: No shortage of targets, no shortage of drama
John Calipari set the tone pretty quickly that the point guard position would be a focus of his recruiting strategy at Kentucky. UK fans spent the entire 2008-2009 season pining for A point guard, any point guard, to step into the position and succeed. When the season closed, attention shifted bringing in a newcomer who [...]
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.
Three way match between UK, UofL, and IU shaping up for Marquis Teague
Do you remember those Triple Threat matches they used to have in the WWF when you used to watch it back in middle school (or last week)? It seemed like every one of those matches would end with one guy screwing another one and allowing the third guy to win, which would inevitably lead to [...]
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 [...]
2010 recruiting moving along, what will UK’s haul look like?
John Calipari, in nailing down the consensus top class for 2009, set expectations just a bit high for future recruiting efforts. It’s not that often that a coach will put together a class with two of the top point guards in the county, two of the top big men in the country, and two more [...]
Wrapping up a random busy news day
You have to love the John Calipari era. UK news breaks in the offseason no matter what, but it sure seems like it’s been happening more often since John Calipari came to Lexington. You wouldn’t think much would be going on July 27, but that was not the case today, because there was plenty to [...]
