Kentucky has been overwhelming it's opponents, of late. But most think that the 'Cats have to lose SOMEWHERE, don't they? And some of those think that that somewhere is in Nashville tomorrow night when #1 UK takes on Vanderbilt.

Wanna win this basketball signed by UK Coach John Calipari??? I knew that would get your attention!  Here's the deal, my friend Pam Simon (along with her Relay team, Pam's Pampered Partners) is raising money for this year's Relay For Life, which will be held, Friday, May 18th at Diamond Lake Campground and Resort.  And this is AWESOME!!  They've snagged an official UK basketball and it's signed b

What happens in Vegas might stay in Vegas. But after Saturday night, what happened in Vegas had a major effect more than 1300 miles away.

Ahead of tonight's superstar matchup between Kentucky and Kansas in Madison Square Garden, both head coaches--UK's John Calipari and Kansas' Bill Self--got a chance to assess their teams and their opponents. Coach Cal doesn't think the 'Cats are very good right now, while Coach Self believes his Jayhawks are much deeper than people realize.

Oh, I bet there was rear-end chewin' in the UK locker room after this one. UK Wildcats Terrence Jones and Stacy Poole were involved in a car accident at 2AM. They were hit by a drunk driver. The players were NOT drunk. But the late night shenanigans have prompted Coach John Calipari to issue a season-long curfew for the 'Cats.

10-0. 16-0. 29-0. Those were some of the runs the Kentucky Wildcats had against Morehouse College in Monday night's exhibition game. Kentucky unloaded on the Maroon Tigers with a 125-40 win that made head coach John Calipari very happy. No, he's not an ogre, he's just pleased that the 'Cats responded to directives and came out and played well. Uh, forgive the understatement.

Last Wednesday night, Transylvania fans were given quite an entertaining and promising show by their beloved Pioneers...for about five minutes. Then the Kentucky Wildcats turned the lights on, and it was lights out as UK rolled to a 97-53 victory in its first exhibition match-up of the 2011-2012 basketball season. Tonight, the tw0-game exhibition season wraps up as the 'Cats take on Morehouse Coll

I'm getting kind of excited.  As you may know, I'm a HUGE college basketball fan. And if it's a team in Kentucky they have my support. Of course, I love my Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. And, trust me, I'm well aware that it's practically "impossible" to support both UK and Louisville, but somehow I manage. But it's November and the season is here. And tonight, the Wildcats begin exhibiti

It's the Fall Classic. No, I don't mean the World Series. THAT Fall Classic is still a few weeks away. I'm talking about THIS Fall Classic--Big Blue Madness.

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln,  Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, and now Martin Luther King. What do they all have in common? They’ve been immortalized in stone. You can BE immortalized in stone. It’s not going anywhere. But can you be immortalized in corn?

Yes, the UK Pros, also dubbed the "UK Legends" lost not once, but twice to the John Calipari-coached Dominican National team earlier this week.  I know this post is a little late, but I think it's still worth examining.

University of Kentucky head basketball coach John Calipari is a great recruiter. That is no secret. University of Kentucky head basketball coach John Caliapari has a great big heart. That, too, is no secret. But now, Coach Cal has combined those two highly valued assets and has essentially re-invented the whole recruiting process. At the same time, he's allowing former UK players unable to work du
