I don’t think I thought that UK would be 9-9 to end the season. I sure didn’t expect that we would be ranked all year either, we won games we expected to lose and vice versa. I’m thrilled that we are relevant in a good way, not just future NBA guys passing through Lexington
 
62 here, born 1962. Married 28 years. Never had kids. Just got my first Social Security check 😂. Still don’t know how to really do stuff on here with my phone. Used to play on here via computer. Just now figured out how to insert my old avatar from 2008 lol.
 
69 here. In the last two years have had 3 cancers and 3 brain seizures. Been a fan for most of my years and still am as long as I can breathe. Go cats
 
72 and following the cats since I was six Am very happy about this year Mark Pope is a breath of fresh air . The team has aways to go to be great but have been very much fun to watchI think we give him 3 years before we do hard evaluations as he started with basically nothing

Results about as I expected. Elder Millennials were the last generation to live thru the golden age of the message board during their formative years and their 20s

Everyone younger grew up during the rise of texting, social media, and message board alternatives.

79 here will be 80 in June. Some think i look in my 60's. Been married 56 years come May to a wonderful woman. In HS I was call baby face and now I just laugh at the old folks when I go to class reunions. Started to follow the Cats in 1966 when I came back from overseas serving Uncle Sam.
Really like Pope as a coach and love this team and have enjoyed most of the season. No one could foresee the injuries that came and the team had to deal with. Hopefully Jesus will let me stay around to see Pope lead the Cats to another title.
 
Shoutout to the three people under 18. I think I first joined when I was 14, although I went years between posting and had to make a new account.
 
This thread topic reminds me of all those silly Facebook questionnaires which ask you what kind of person you are, but are in fact only designed to get information from you so algorithms can try to guess your passwords.
 
45 and expecting another boy in June lol.
My Dad was 45 when I was born. 48 when my sister was born. 41 now and he's still kicking. He's been an amazing father. You will be too to your new son. Congratulations.

Edit- I just saw your next post. My Dad has 6 kids too. 3 with a different mother, 3 with my mother. Holidays were very interesting when I was young and his ex wife came to all of our Holiday feasts.

Good luck to anyone or anything trying to guess my passwords. They're all long with lots of different characters and I change them often. The Wife thinks I'm strange for doing so. No Spaceballs password to be had. 1,2,3,4,5. People are so dumb.

Who are your favorite KY players? Who do you think are the best 5 or so players that you can remember?
Hagan and Ramsey from the early fifties were two of the best Dan Issel was one of the best to ever play at Kentucky. I loved Macey's style of play. In the modern era, Anthony Davis for how he dominated the paint and was a shot blocking machine. There were many others , but these stand out to me .

40 years old. Am told that 40 is the old age of "youth" and that 50 is the youth of "old age". I feel young.

Pope has made me care about UK basketball wins and losses again, albeit maybe not healthy, but I care again. I lost that under Cal. Got to where I almost relished in the losses just for Cal to be scrutinized more. I hurt over losses again now, and I think its because I know it hurts Pope.

I think under Cal he almost liked the losses towards the end just as a way to stick it to us, almost to prove that we don't deserve wins.

Pope's legacy here is yet to be written. I get frustrated with him, but am hopeful and confident in what he can accomplish. I know one thing, it feels great to care again. GBB!!

Take the tin foil off your head. No malicious intentions. Just for fun my friend.
 
First ... a tip of my hat to John Farrel, age 87. John speaks knowingly about Cliff Hagan and Frank Ramsey - both All-Americans.

I'm 78. I saw my first U.K. basketball game in person on January 30, 1954. I was 7. U.K. beat Vandy 85-63 in Nashville. Ramsey had 24 points; Hagan had 22 points.

Cotton Nash has been my favorite player since his first game for the 'Cats on December 2, 1961. Cotton had 25 points and 17 rebounds in that game. All of y'all will recall, of course, that Cotton was a 3-time All-American. Cotton is No. 2, all-time, for the 'Cats in career PPG average (22.69 ppg),
 
82. Swim a half mile three days a week
I dated in the same sorority house that Tommy Kron, Louie Dampier and John Adams did . Great guys and friends . We all married sorority sisters. One of lowest moments of my life was when Rupp ‘s Runts got beat by Texas Western .
My law partner represented Dan Issel and other pro athletes .
Still work part time . I’m on two committees for UK and my wife is on two. We have sponsored scholarship students for last fourteen years and we get more out of it than the kids do . Will b at UK with students all day this Friday . Love it . Great life of wonderful memories .
I’m very blessed .
