With 17:14 left in the game, the Cats had fought their way. And forged a lead on a monster follow by Patterson. Then Gillispie was teed up. Why? For what?
Scott hits a FT. Then two treys, one by TWill, one by Scott. And the Cats are down very quickly by six, 49-43.
As things played out, [...]

The Big Game
January 5, 2009 – 9:17 am
Okay I know you’re waiting with baited breath to read my observations of U of L’s escape yesterday over UK. But I just finished an extended piece for Wednesday’s print edition of LEO, and don’t want to step on my own toes. So to speak. As it were.
Some quick observations. UK would be really good [...]
Two Hours To Tip Off
January 4, 2009 – 2:41 pm
The DVR is set. I’m showered, dressed and, of course, waiting for my better half to get ready so we can head out to the Big Game. I’m of Social Security age. So how come on the day of the U of L/ UK game, I revert to that 13 year old sitting in the [...]

In case you surfed right over it on the home page, I wrote a little perspective on that game coming up Sunday. You know, Cats vs. Cards. You can read it here.

Cats & Cards: A Week Till Tipoff
December 27, 2008 – 9:47 pm
Didn’t see much of the Cats squeaker over Florida Atlantic. Apparently UK was down in the first half, but held steady and took care of business in the second. I did see the name Landon Slone for a moment on the screen and it didn’t immediately ring a bell. Then I remembered the kid’s a [...]
Cats On The Prowl
December 23, 2008 – 12:00 pm
Yeah I know that UK’s four straight recent wins have come over rummies Mississippi Valley State, IU, Appy State and Tennessee State. But I tell ya, this is looking more and more like a team that nobody’s gonna want to play after the first of the year.
The Cats play tall and tough. And when you [...]
That Elusive Top Spot
December 18, 2008 – 4:53 pm
The AP keeps an all time tab on which colleges have appeared the most times since 1949 in the Top Ten, Top 25, etc. Kentucky with an average rand of 6.63 is second on the list to Carolina.
Louisville ranks 7th (Average RK 11.58) behind UCLA, Duke, Kansas and IU. Syracuse, Arizona and Illinois round out [...]
Is Billy Clyde Losing His Touch?
December 16, 2008 – 10:21 am
UK coach Gillispie is known as a man willing to change diapers if it will get him in on a future superduperstar prepster no matter how tender the youngster’s age. So, I gotta ask, is he asleep at the wheel?
Case in point: Tyler Lewis, a 5-10, 145 pound point guard for Forsyth Country Day in [...]

Clouds so swift/Rain won’t lift/ Gate won’t close/ Railings froze
Get your mind off wintertime/ You ain’t goin’ nowhere!
Oh my, they’re restless in the Bluegrass. Rumor overload, if you ask me. And I’m a guy who considers innuendo daily sustenance.
DeAndre Liggins hates BCG just like the rest of the players, etc, etc, blah, blah, blah. He’ll [...]
Catagorizing the Cats
December 7, 2008 – 9:47 am
UK’s hoops squad is off to an odd start. Other than the VMI debacle, the team hasn’t looked that bad, even against mighty Carolina. Alright, those long flowing “shorts” the players wear have pushed the envelope, but that’s not what I’m talking about.
I can’t recall a team of consequence that commits as many unforced errors [...]
