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 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.
November 13, 2012 Let's go back about 7-plus months to a late March night in New Orleans. It was Kentucky versus Louisville for the right to advance to the national championship game. Kentucky won by 8.
November 10, 2012 WBKR's #1 college basketball fan here still celebrating the official start of the 2012-2013 season. Yesterday was Opening Day and featured 222 out of 338 Division I teams in action. Two of those teams--the Kentucky Wildcats and the Indiana Hoosiers--opened their campaigns with victories. Both fan bases have reason to be very pleased.
November 9, 2012 When Coach John Calipari arrived at the University of Kentucky, he hit the ground running. He brought with him a monster recruiting class, sure.
November 7, 2012 UK coach John Calipari is a big Cincinnati Reds fan. And Lexington is about an hour and some change from the Queen City. So when you're Coach Cal, and you can get sweet seats--or should I say "suite"--you go.
October 25, 2012 If every member of Big Blue Nation tuned into ESPN's new series "All Access Kentucky" on Wednesday night, it's possible it could have generated viewership numbers that would have made it, at least, a Top 25 program were it to have aired on a network.
October 18, 2012 Yesterday was a very big Wednesday for Big Blue Nation. As expected, UK freshman sensation Nerlens Noel was cleared to play by the NCAA, meaning a full complement of top-flight rookies will take the floor for the 2012-2013 season. But that's not all.
October 17, 2012 As the Thumbs Up for Lane Goodwin campaign continues to circle the globe, more and more news outfits around the country are picking up the story.
October 11, 2012 Saying Kentucky is his dream school, 6'6" Rochester, Michigan guard/forward James Young announced he would be playing for the Wildcats next fall in a Thursday afternoon press conference.
