What is Kentucky's scholarship outlook like in 2010? How many prospects might we see Calipari sign in this class? http://kentucky.scout.com/2/877267.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/877267.html Mon, 06 Jul 2009 11:05:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky In just over a week the state of Kentucky's future rosters has turned upside down. In the first part of a multi-part series we'll look at who has opted not to be a part of the Kentucky future. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/854983.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/854983.html Thu, 09 Apr 2009 04:14:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky Over the course of the two games the Wildcats have played in the NIT they are showing themselves to be a much tougher breed of Cat than the one that closed out the SEC season by being kicked around in close games. They've made plays during crunch time they didn't make during the last two-thirds of SEC play and into the SEC tourney. These players are in no rush to see their season come to an end. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/850333.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/850333.html Wed, 25 Mar 2009 04:17:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky The Kentucky Wildcats (19-11, 8-7) face the Florida Gators (21-9, 8-7) in a CBS televised game Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Here's what head coach Billy Gillispie had to say about the matchup. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/844956.html 2047 Darrell Cartwright http://kentucky.scout.com/2/844956.html Fri, 06 Mar 2009 21:38:00 GMT 0 48 Kentucky kentucky Kentucky avoided the let down that is always possible coming off a big win, taking care of business during their trip to Athens, Georgia, coming away with a 23-point victory, which saw Coach Gillispie use his bench extensively in the final five minutes of play. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/831363.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/831363.html Sun, 18 Jan 2009 20:20:00 GMT 0 48 Kentucky kentucky Billie Gillispie expects to see some junk defenses in the future as the Wildcats continue league play. Kentucky's two stars, Jodie Meeks and Patrick Patterson, are currently the highest scoring combo in the SEC and teams will be keying on them. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/831160.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/831160.html Sun, 18 Jan 2009 03:13:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky Jodie Meeks shot down the hopes of keeping intact Tennessee's SEC home winning streak, pouring in 54 points against the Volunteers. In scoring the 54 points Meeks displaced UK legend Dan Issel atop the UK career single game scoring mark. Issel had previously held the single game record of 53 points. Meeks hit ten threes, topping the single game record of 9 he shared with Tony Delk. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/830054.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/830054.html Wed, 14 Jan 2009 04:12:00 GMT 0 48 Kentucky kentucky It had not been the best game played by Billy Gillispie's squad this season, but as the clock wound down they found themselves tied with the Cards at 71, and in need of a defensive stop to force overtime. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/827371.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/827371.html Mon, 05 Jan 2009 03:52:00 GMT 0 48 Kentucky kentucky Michael Porter definitely possesses traits that Billy Gillispie likes to see in his players. Toughness. Porter, a former Division 1A football recruit, has always been physically tough. This season he is developing mental toughness as well. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/825376.html 2047 Lonny Demaree http://kentucky.scout.com/2/825376.html Mon, 29 Dec 2008 17:43:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky It was Jodie Meeks day at Freedom Hall on Saturday. Meeks set a new Freedom Hall record for points scored by a UK player by pouring in 46 points in leading the Cats to a 93-69 win over Appalachian State University. The 46 points eclipsed the former record of 42 held by current radio color analyst Mike Pratt. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/823469.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/823469.html Sun, 21 Dec 2008 06:36:00 GMT 0 48 Kentucky kentucky The more I watch DeAndre Liggins play, the more I like him. He shoots the ball a little bit better than I thought he would, especially when he gets his feet set. It doesn't look pretty. It's awkward from behind the head, but it has been very effective for him. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/821556.html 2047 Kenny Walker http://kentucky.scout.com/2/821556.html Mon, 15 Dec 2008 14:48:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky Now that Kentucky has signed Daniel Orton, Jon Hood and G.J.

Coming on particularly strong for the Wildcats is Maysville native Darius Miller, who is averaging 8.3 points per contest, and in his most recent game played a career high 33 minutes. http://kentucky.scout.com/2/815193.html 2047 Keith Bays http://kentucky.scout.com/2/815193.html Mon, 24 Nov 2008 16:19:00 GMT 1 48 Kentucky kentucky Recently former Kentucky All-American Kenny "Sky" Walker had the opportunity to watch the current edition of the Kentucky Wildcats play a little preseason ball.
