Braylon Mullins crushed Duke with an all-time March Madness dagger
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 […]

Even in the era of the transfer portal and NIL, fans of a team will still focus on and care about recruiting. That’s especially the case with the Kentucky Wildcats.

24 turnovers and 24 made shots doomed Kentucky’s upset bid against Texas
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 is entering the transfer portal and will not return to the school, his father told Jack Pilgrim of KSR.

How Jaland Lowe’s injury affected Kentucky’s scheme this season
Kentucky Basketball point guard Jaland Lowe missed a majority of this past season with a shoulder injury.
