CATS GO 18-0 ON THE SEASON

18-0 at home anyway, but I’ll take it.  In the end Bledsoe had a great shooting day but made some very poor decisions.  The big men came up big at the end getting some key blocks including a beautiful rotation to the shooter by Orton to block the diminutive Erving Walker.  Cousins took a nice [...]

Kentucky vs. Georgia

When Kentucky played Georgia back on January 9th, it was a hard fought victory for UK.  The game was close the entire way.  Georgia played a very physical game and slowed it down with UK pulling away for the 76-68 win.  Georgia is an improved team since then and I fully expect this to be [...]

Here are some notes, quotes, and tidbits from last night’s game against South Carolina.

Kentucky is now 27-1.  That is tied for Kentucky’s third best start in history.  After Kentucky’s top five best starts, this one excluded, Kentucky has won the national championship three times and been the national runner-up once.
Kentucky is [...]

JOHN CALIPARI, DANIEL ORTON QUOTES ON KENTUCKY VS SOUTH CAROLINA

This pic not from today's presser. Cal was sweaty after his workout as usual. He wasn't completely soaked, so I don't think it was a long run today. Maybe two miles.

Well I went to the Craft Center today for a press meeting with Kentucky basketball’s Coach Calipari and the players.  As this was the pre-South [...]

JOHN CALIPARI WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE SHOOTING

John Calipari said yesterday on the SEC coaches teleconpherence that he would like his players to shoot more stating:

 ”What I’m trying to say to our guys is, we’re one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country….Only three things can happen when you shoot the basketball. You make it; I [...]

Kentucky vs. Vanderbilt

One of my all-time favorite UK games was when the 2002-2003 squad went to Vanderbilt and beat the Commies 74-52 in what was the best half of defense I have ever seen a UK team play.  In the first half, UK couldn’t stop anything.  Vanderbilt had it’s way against the Cats’ zone hitting 7 of [...]

KENTUCKY BASKETBALL MID-SEASON EVALUATIONS

About two weeks ago “The Dude” finished his series of mid-season player evaluations.  I repost them here for several reasons.  I think it provides perspective on how some of these players have improved in just the past couple of weeks, particularly Liggins and Cousins whose evaluation was written a month ago.  That was before his seven straight double doubles.  [...]

Midpoint Player Breakdowns - Part 4 Darius Miller Daniel Orton

This is the fourth installment in a series of posts I’ll be making over the next week, which will take a look at how I think each player has performed to this point in the season (essentially pre-conference).  I’ll be discussing what I think have been some strengths and weaknesses, as well as what I think [...]
