*****"The List" aka "Why Kentucky is the #1 program of all-time"*****
- Thread starter UKCaliCats27
- Start date
Nope, not correct. UK has 46 SEC Regular Season Conference Championships, and 2 other Regular Season Conference Championships from the Southern Conference (in 1926 and 1932). There was no SEC before the 1933 season. That makes a total of 48, but only 46 of them while UK was in the SEC.
Further, your other stat is also incorrect. UK has 28 SEC Tournament Championships, and 1 SIAA Conference Tournament Championship in 1921. That makes a total of 29, but only 28 of them while UK was in the SEC.
You need to correct this. Thank you.

There have been more updates today on "The List", and should be added here. First, UK's all time AP Poll numbers, including total weeks ranked in the top-20/25, top-15, top-10, top-5, and at #1 have been updated. Further, UK finished for the 10th time ranked at #1 today in the season final AP Poll today. This category was also updated.
In addition, a small addition was added to one of the bottom sub-categories of "The List." It's regarding UK be only one of 2 SEC teams in history to go 21-0 for an entire SEC season (18-0 record in the SEC Regular Season, plus a 3-0 record in the SEC Tournament).
OP, take a look at the UK Wiki page (as always) and you will see these new updates. Thank you again for your hard work in keeping "The List" accurate and updated on here. Go Big Blue!
(By the way, more categories will be added to "The List" within the next few weeks, so keep an eye out for them on the bottom of the UK Wiki page.

One more change needs to be added:
UK now has a SEC school record of 35 straight victories, not 34. This statistic will go up with every consectutive UK win, by the way.
Once again, thanks for keeping "The List" updated. Go Big Blue!

OP,
"The List" has now been completely updated at the bottom of the Kentucky Wildcats Men's Basketball Wikipedia page. It now can be completely updated here. Sorry for me being a bit late in doing this. Was at work until very late last night.
By the way, a new category has been added to the NCAA records section. That section now lists UK's current 36-0 record as the best start in NCAA history for a team in any season. Simply take a look and you will see it.
Once again, thanks for your help on this.

OP, and yes, this is nitpicking, but there needs to be a space between the 36-0 section (after the 38-win reference) and a comma in the bottom section. Take a look and you will see what I mean. Look at the NCAA records section at the bottom, and you will catch it.
In short, I thank you once again for what you have transferred and updated here. "The List" is legendary.

OP,
"The List" has now been completely updated on the bottom of the Kentucky Wildcats Men's Basketball Wikipedia page (as always.) It is now ready to be updated on here. I think the only things you have missed are Kentucky's updated all time winning percentage against AP-ranked opponents and Kentucky's all time average of victories per season played.
Once again, thanks for your help on this.

OP, time to completely update "The List." I have already done it on Wikipedia. Look at my above post for things you need to update.
Thank you, and Go Big Blue!
Thank you, and Go Big Blue!
Look for more updates tonight, in the following weeks, and in the following months. Most of the categories will be updated, and a few more will be added.
Thanks for all you do. Go Big Blue!

Kentucky's all time winning percentage against AP-ranked opponents should be .615, not .614. This should be corrected and will be updated again later tonight.

11 players named NCAA Regional Most Outstanding Player a total of 12 times
12 players named NCAA Regional Most Outstanding Player a total of 13 times

"The List" has now been completely updated at the bottom of the Wikipedia Kentucky Wildcats Men's Basketball page. It is now ready to be completely updated here.Originally posted by UKCaliCats27:
It's Gameday!!!
Hopefully more update's after the game tonight.
However, I can't find if any Kentucky players were named to the All-Regional team or named Regional MOP. Does anyone know this? I will update this stat once I can confirm.
OP,
"The List" has now been 100% updated on the Wikipedia Kentucky Men's Basketball page. This most recent update now includes the addition of 3 UK players on an All-Regional Team, and the addition one UK player being named the MOP of an NCAA Regional. Look closely at the bottom section.
Hope this helps, and thanks for all your hard work on this. It's much appreciated. Remember, accuracy is the key, as is constant research and updates. May "The List" live on forever.
Go Big Blue!
(More updates and additional categories will be coming next week, so keep an eye out.)

OP,
Since Willie was a First Team Consensus All-American, those stats need to changed as well. UK how has 20 total players named First Team Consensus All-American (which still ranks 2nd all time in NCAA history), and 25 total First Team Consensus All-American Selections with 25 (which now moves UK up to #2 all time in this NCAA category).
Further, your listing of UK's rank in total categories should also be changed.
It should now read:
(Of the 71 major categories listed above, Kentucky is #1 in 50 of them, #2 in 16 of them, #3 in 3 of them, #4 in 1 of them, and #8 in 1 of them.)
Thanks for your help in keeping "The List" updated and accurate on here. Once again, you can refer to the bottom section of the Wikipedia Kentucky Wildcats Men's Basketball page if you need any verification or questions about new statistical updates.

Coach Cal was also named National Coach of the Year by the NABC today, so that particular statistic (in the middle section) needs to be changed as well (should now be 6 coaches chosen 14 times).

Kentucky (and I just caught it today) is now 4th in NCAA Tournament Winning Percentage. The teams that are ahead of us in this category are Duke, UCLA, and Florida. We passed UNC this year.
Further, in NCAA Tournament Final Four Winning Percentage, the teams ahead of us are are UConn, North Carolina State, San Francisco, UCLA, Indiana, Holy Cross, and LaSalle.
This all came from the NCAA Men's Basketball Division I Records Books, including the NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four Records Book.
