[the nail at the foul line]

Good guess but not correct.

Clue #2 - One of them played for Tubby and the other played for Cal

So, Archie?

Tough question.

I was thinking the mid-70s with all the talent that was in the SEC that it would have to be one of those guys but I was wrong.

Yes...it's a very tough question. I'll go ahead and give the answers:

1. Aaron Harrison - 46th best scoring season in UK history with 549 points in 2013-14. Was All-SEC the following year, but not that season.
2. Randolph Morris - 50th best scoring season in UK history with 546 points in 2006-07. Was All-SEC the prior season, but not his junior season at UK.

Who is the highest scoring player on a championship team at Kentucky? Points per game?

I just saw this one and I don't think anyone answered. Hmmm....I want to think it's someone back from the 48, 49, 51 era?

That was tough. Should have realized it was someone that made it to FF.

Without Google, two choices.

I would have guessed wrong.

I'm going to guess Bill Spivey?

My recent guess would be Tony Delk in 1996, but I'm not sure he's the one.

Not Spivey.

I also would have guessed Spivey.

It is Groza.

That's a good one. I love trivia like this.

Until @JPScott shows up and I feel like this pickup game at the park in West Baden, Indiana that I decided to play against the tall blonde haired dude, has a ringer.

 

[nickhorvathsuxazz]

Yep...highest draft pick of the group I believe. 17th pick of the draft. Averaged 21ppg and 10rpg in his 1 season at Villanova and entered the draft.

After reading this, I vaguely remember him going in the first round. Did remember him having the big season at villanova, after reading; it jogged my memory about this being one of the early things I was aggravated w/ Tubby about.

What guard has the most rebounds in KY history?

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

What guard has the most rebounds in KY history?

We considering Givens a guard? If not, we considering Tayshaun a guard?

Doesn’t matter - let’s go Ramsey.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Of Top 5 in Points, Rebounds and Assists over their career, which list has the most KY born players?

Givens was never a guard. Tayshaun was mostly a three.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Ok. Ramsey

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Rebounds

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Ok. Ramsey

He is second overall. Amazing.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Rebounds

Correct

I would have missed it and said assists.

Ramsey, Hagan Cox Rebounds

Minniefield Epps assists

Givens scoring

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

He is second overall. Amazing.

Dude was like 6’2” or something.

 

[bthaunert]

Givens was never a guard. Tayshaun was mostly a three.

Gerald Fitch? He's the player in recent memory that I feel Reed plays most like.

Ramsey is second in total rebounds.

Fitch played during a period with less shots and a better basketball, so better shooting percentage and less rebounds.
