95/96 was pretty ridiculous if we’re just talking about the regular season. UK just embarrassed practically every team they played.

beating the Hoosiers was simply magical … the championship against UCLA was Wooden’s last game and the refs were not going to let them lose no matter what … I felt like we didn’t have so much as a letdown in that game as much as we had already beaten our biggest rival at the time and the team that was heads and shoulders the number 1 team … which they proved the next season by being the last undefeated team.1975, only because it was the first year I started following (13 years old). Didn't have the one and dones or now, I guess none and done. Just a team putting it all out on the floor for the University of Kentucky. Beat an undefeated IU team only to lose to UCLA in the finals...
That was a fun team to follow and then again following the Givens Robey Lee and Phillips bunch for four years.beating the Hoosiers was simply magical … the championship against UCLA was Wooden’s last game and the refs were not going to let them lose no matter what … I felt like we didn’t have so much as a letdown in that game as much as we had already beaten our biggest rival at the time and the team that was heads and shoulders the number 1 team … which they proved the next season by being the last undefeated team.
Folks. PLEASE think about this post. OP is brand new. EVERY post is about ‘my cats’, ‘our team’, ‘we this and we that’. If you recognize that and question him he will get smart and short, and nasty with you. He’s NOT a Cat fan and he’s reeling people in like a fish. I don’t know him or care about his trolling but I’ve never seen someone more obvious. Read his posts / comments. If he’s legit then Bassfan is the Pope.
Like a rock !1978.
I was 22, my steps were quick and light........................
The goose was gold and all was right in the world it seemed.
Not sure I really understand this. What does any poster gain by reeling anyone in to duping them to thinking he is a fan. If he isn’t a fan of UK and wants to pretend to be seems like a total waste of time to me as his/her antics will not bother me one bit. Only kind of posters that ever bother me in the slightest is those that pick a side and will never vary from it no matter what. Ie Kybassfan. Then I hardly ever put any merit to anything they say. I ignore them without putting them on ignore.Folks. PLEASE think about this post. OP is brand new. EVERY post is about ‘my cats’, ‘our team’, ‘we this and we that’.

You might be thinking of 94. 95 lost to UNC in the E8 & were pretty dominant all season. Entering the UNC game they had only lost 4 games by a grand total of 10 points.very hard choice but i will go with the 96 team mainly because it was the last chance for the best recruiting class Pitino had to win
not to mention it had been 18 years since we won a title
by the same token the 95 team i consider a very underachieving team not even getting past the sweet 16 as a 1 seed
I 2nd this they were my favorite team of my lifetime!1995-96 team. They were dominant
that is the teamYou might be thinking of 94. 95 lost to UNC in the E8 & were pretty dominant all season. Entering the UNC game they had only lost 4 games by a grand total of 10 points.
BINGO!!!!!This. I mean, it has to be 1996, right?! What a squad and what a run! Loved that team. GOAT!
Man, what a rough L that was. I’ll never get over the egregious, phantom technical foul that was assessed to McCarty. We were never the same after that incident.You might be thinking of 94. 95 lost to UNC in the E8 & were pretty dominant all season.

Of course I'm not a "troll" ... and as a newbie I'm still trying to get a clear understanding of that term. THANK YOU for your use of common sense and sound logic!Not sure I really understand this.

Yeah, total bs. I hate UNC more than any other school & was beyond pissed after that game 😂. And, it was such a letdown bc that 95 team was arguably the best in the country. I thought they were. They were a lot like 96, which is why I knew they’d win it the next season as soon as that game ended. We returned basically everybody & swapped Rhodes & Riddick for Mercer & DA. But, if we hadn’t gone cold that game I think we would’ve won it all. We were a lot closer to a 3 or 4-peat than some ppl may realize.Man, what a rough L that was. I’ll never get over the egregious, phantom technical foul that was assessed to McCarty. We were never the same after that incident.
How do you know so much about this 'constant' 'playbook' if you're so new?My, my! I have a stalker, and this poster and I have crossed paths before.
I maintain a positive attitude about the basketball program. I'm naturally optimistic. I won't attack the team or the coaching staff. I like Coach Calipari and I'm genuinely glad he's our head coach.
Unfortunately, this doesn't sit well with Mr. Stalker who would prefer that I fall in line with the constant "doom, gloom and Cal sucks" playbook to which he and other Misery Munchkins on this site adhere. Hence, he's resorted to labeling me a troll.
Either that, or he's got a crush on me and is trying to get my attention. If so ... flattered, but my gate doesn't swing that way.

Wasn't at the '93 FF, but I've always admired the North Carolina program. They're about the only school to own us in terms of head-to-head games. I think the all-time series is 17 wins for UK and 25 for UNC. Gotta' respect that!

Trolls do a lot of research to try and appear genuineI have superpowers! For example, I can read a message board.
I also have the amazing ability to be a UK fan/alum while concurrently ...
(1) handling facts and reality, and
(2) having respect for other programs and admiration for their accomplishments.
Keep this between you and me, but I actually admire Indiana for their undefeated season of 1976. Oh, the horror!
You ARE a liar. You ARE a smartass jerk. You are NOT a UK fan and I don’t know if you’re an alum or not. You defend yourself with BS and like to stir the pot. New posters that are legit don’t turn into smartasses as quick as you did. I’m guessing UL fan but I wish you’d find another board to harass.I have superpowers!

You should write skewed political poll questions. They're all full of false choice nonsense like that.Riddle me this ... Who is the truer UK fan? Is it someone who still supports the coach and the team, or someone who doesn't?
Spot on...dude is a no life trollYou ARE a liar. You ARE a smartass jerk. You are NOT a UK fan and I don’t know if you’re an alum or not. You defend yourself with BS and like to stir the pot.

You’re a troll. Fact. You’re just here to stir things up. So how1) YOU make allegations for which you offer no proof, only opinions.
2) YOU engage in name-calling.
3) YOU are stalking yours truly.
4) YOU appear to have a man crush on me. (Stop the flirtations. Not interested, as previously noted. And no means no!)
You're not on a playground anymore. It's time to put on your big boy pants and grow up!
