YepIf I’m not mistaken, that first matchup brings Sean Woods back into the building.
Nice. The most legendary game winner ever … almost.

I remember this as well, yes
I don't remember seeing that on Glory Road.i think this is great for many reasons
if i am not mistaken Coach Rupp used to go to the HBCU's and teach basketball on his own time
I think we should do an ode to the past. Start Fredrick, Canada, mark Coury, Brad, and Jon PelphreyI don't remember seeing that on Glory Road.
That game is my very first UK memory, I was a few months shy of turning 7. My parents recorded it on VHS and I bet I watched it at least 100 times!
In before the political arguments start...
I think it’s great PR, and important to many recruits and players. I’d rather play cupcakes that get us recruits than children of the poor that Cal’s friend’s sister’s husband coaches.
I don't really care about any of the cupcakes. I'm more interested in the top 25 teams we play and the SEC schedule.
Finally Cal has decided to play teams he has a chance to beat. Top 20 teams early in the season have basically been a L.In before the political arguments start...

I regret to inform you that an articulate and thoughtful response to a situation that belies no proud ignorance or provincialism is out of bounds here, sir.A lot of these schools struggle mightily financially. I remember when Woods coached at Mississippi Valley State, his away schedule paid for a decent portion of the athletic department budget. It's not uncommon for these teams to play there first 12 - 15 games on the road. This is from an article about the 2012 season:
"To remedy its athletic department's financial woes, Mississippi Valley State spent the first two months of the season on the road, where it earned more than $800,000 (nearly 20 percent of the school's athletic budget) in guaranteed money. The Delta Devils didn't play their first home game until Jan. 3."
Kudos for UK in helping out these schools.
That was my thought. Nice PR move, both for recruits, and just the general perception nationwide of UK. Right or wrong (I believe mostly wrongfully), we (UK) have a negative stigma associated with us in regards to race.
I knew it and called it...UK playing games like this while the CBB world will be watching the PK 85 tournament.So glad we passed on the Nike tournament for this!!

I saw that game as a young adult. That's what basketball should look like.That game is my very first UK memory, I was a few months shy of turning 7. My parents recorded it on VHS and I bet I watched it at least 100 times!
You really think this is going to help???? ESPN, the NYT, the Wapo, majority of sports writers will continue to play the race card against UK.That was my thought. Nice PR move, both for recruits, and just the general perception nationwide of UK. Right or wrong (I believe mostly wrongfully), we (UK) have a negative stigma associated with us in regards to race.
I think that was Ed Davender's career high and only 30 point game. Later vacated but the stats still count.That game is my very first UK memory, I was a few months shy of turning 7. My parents recorded it on VHS and I bet I watched it at least 100 times!

Wonder where Sean learned that type of coaching? He just couldn't wait until he left the court though.
Bernadette Mattox if I had to guess.Wonder where Sean learned that type of coaching?
Why? Needed to be the first to insert some negativity? Glass houses.
