A national champion, UK Athletics Hall of Famer, and longtime radio analyst, Goose Givens has remained close to the program, frequently attending practices and calling games alongside Tom Leach.

Everyone and their mama lined up to rag on Kentucky Basketball for only winning one title with all the talent the program has had. Where is that same energy for Duke? They have signed 36 5-star players in 11 years and have zero national titles to show for it. And it will be at least […]
I had high hopes for this Kentucky women’s team today, but they were dashed almost immediately. After the first quarter, Kenny Brooks said Texas was “on another planet,” and they were great.

Kentucky Basketball point guard Jaland Lowe missed a majority of this past season with a shoulder injury.

Mark Pope is knee deep in player meetings right now. All the players have already spoken about their plans directly after the Iowa State loss, but plans change. When the Transfer Portal opens up on April 7th, Kentucky could be getting as few as 3-4 players or as many as 10. This next week will […]
When a college basketball fan thinks of the sport, it’s hard not to start with the Blue Bloods. Kentucky. North Carolina. Duke. Kansas. UCLA. All of these programs together — with possibly the recent surge from UConn — write most (if not all) of the history of college basketball. St. John’s head coach Rick Pitino […]
This year’s Sweet 16, which is now underway, is unlike any other in the last 72 years of college basketball.

West Virginia is a team that Kentucky was designed to beat, but that doesn’t always happen. The Mountaineers are small, ferocious, and force turnovers at an elite rate.
