December 11, 2012 Western Kentucky University, my alma mater, has a new head football coach. He is former Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino, famous, recently, for a motorcycle ride with a lovely woman who wasn't his wife.
December 7, 2012 I like Louisville as much as the next person. The Bardstown Road area is one of the coolest neighborhoods in the country. I could spend a couple of hours in Cave Hill Cemetery soaking up the history. And, of course, there's the Kentucky Derby.
December 4, 2012 It could be that negative comments were the reason. Other theories hold that it was simply a distraction. But whatever ultimately is the explanation, members of the University of Kentucky Wildcat basketball team have suspended or deleted their Twitter accounts.
December 3, 2012 Let's see, you have to go back to the Billy Gillispie era to find the last time (before Saturday) that Kentucky lost a home game--it was a 4-point setback to Georgia in March of 2009.
December 2, 2012 All together now... T-O-P-S! TOPS! TOPS! TOPS!!!
It is with great pleasure and pride that I can say, Western Kentucky University formally accepted an invitation to play on December 26 in Detroit in the 2012 Little Caesars Pizza Bowl! The Hilltoppers (7-5)will face off against Central Michigan at 6:30 p.m. (CST) at Ford Field on ESPN.
November 30, 2012 In November, the polls mean nothing. When I saw Kentucky at #3 in the pre-season AP poll, I thought the writers who contribute to that poll had lost their minds.
November 29, 2012 I think ESPN senior writer Andy Katz is one of the best sports analysts in the business. So I'm very fortunate that he covers college basketball. As a college hoops junkie, I could talk for hours with this guy.
November 28, 2012 Announced this morning through several news outlets, the University of Louisville's application to the Atlantic Coast Conference has been accepted. The unanimous vote came from the ACC's Council of Presidents.
They are expected to join the conference in 2014.
November 27, 2012 After a 2-10 season, with none of those wins coming in SEC play, it came as little surprise when Joker Phillips was shown the door.
November 23, 2012 If you saw the Kentucky/Morehead State game Wednesday night, you saw an Eagles club that came to play. Morehead led most of the first half and even held a lead in the second. Ultimately, the 'Cats came around and won by eleven. It wasn't easy.
November 14, 2012 During halftime of last night's Kentucky/Duke game, ESPN's Andy Katz caught up with UK head coach John Calipari for a quick interview and assessment of the team's performance in the first half.
November 14, 2012 I could practically hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth all the way up here in Owensboro. I'm sure the Kentucky Wildcat fans filing out of the Georgia Dome were hoping for a match-up other than the one that saw #9 Duke upend #3 UK 75-68 on a Tuesday evening in Atlanta.
