There have been several newsworthy events since we last spoke. The Tennessee football game sort of left me in the doldrums, so I haven't really felt like posting. Also, the deviant world of textbooks is heating up, so posts may be fewer and far between.
- Winston Guy (pictured above) gave the Wildcats a huge verbal commitment. Guy, a Lexington native, had been committed to Arkansas, but had been wavering on his decision. The departure of Houston Nutt in Fayetteville led Guy to give the Wildcats the nod this week.
- There was a big high school basketball match up this weekend, featuring future Wildcat Darius Miller against Scotty Hopson. Hopson is rated as a top ten player in the nation by most recruiting services. Miller overwhelmingly won the battle, posting 41 points to Hopson's 17.
- Louisville's journey to Las Vegas turned out to be less than successful. The Cardinal's ducked a possible showdown with North Carolina by dropping a game to the Stormin' Mormons of BYU. Following the loss, pictures surfaced of the Cardinal players enjoying themselves at a Vegas nightclub. When asked about the events, Louisville coach Rick Pitino stated, "I was a little disappointed in the pictures. Juan looked like he had spilled a drink on his shirt. Palacios will have to learn that he'll never be able to manage multiple relationships at one time with those type of sloppy partying habits. Other than that, I thought he looked good. The pictures of the Louisville cheerleader were better though."
- ESPN decided to start a rumor that Coach Rich Brooks was going to retire after this season. Brooks later responded by stating he planned on being the longest tenured coach in Wildcat football history. Bill Curry responded by staring blankly in the distance with his headset on.
- After the Kentucky loss to Tennessee, reports came out the Tennessee was stealing Kentucky's signals. When asked if this was true, Vols Coach Fulmer responded by eating an entire turkey, bones and all.
- UK walk on Kerry Benson has left the basketball team.
- Jodie Meeks may be out for the year. Ramon Harris returned to play last night, and Fulmer just ate another turkey.
- It looks like Kentucky is likely headed to the Music City Bowl for the second straight year. The opponent would either be Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, or Florida State.
That is all for now. North Carolina is looming.
