    For you old timers, Whatever happened to Larry Johnson who played PG for us from 1973-1977

    This. No one took the ball away from Larry Johnson. NO one! He might travel once in a while, he might double-dribble, he might make an occassional bad pass..... NO ONE took the ball away from him.....at least that I can remember. And yes, he was very quick. He won the Bernie Shively award...

    On this day March 27, 1978....The Goose was Golden

    Actually, Notre Dame lost the consolation game to Arkansas. Digger didn't even wanna play. He mentioned at that Final Four that the NCAA should do away with the 3rd place game. About 3 years later, they did just that. Joe B . . . . 2-0 in the 1978 Final Four Digger . . . 0-2 in the 1978...

    Midwest regional resale tix

    Anyone know where the majority of BBN will sitting be in Lucas Oil Stadium? I do NOT want to be sitting in the middle of a bunch of Vols or Houston fans! Don't mind Purdue fans......an enemy of my enemy is my friend. And I despise IU with a passion! C-A-T-S!

    A random day after UK-Duke trivia question...

    I'll go with March, 1980. Mid East Regional at Rupp. Duke beat the Cats something like 55-54. Kyle Macy missed a jumper at the buzzer. Two nights later, Purdue beat Duke to go to Indy for the Final Four. I attended both games as I was a Freshman at UK that year.

    Favorite non game moments in UK basketball history

    "Notre Dame had fun in St. Louis." Joe B., at the pep rally at Memorial after the 1978 Championship. Digger Phelps enjoyed make snide remarks about UK and Joe . . . Joe got the last word. Loved it!!! That 1978 Final Four was the closest Digger even remotely came to a National Championship...

    Mark Pope on Paul Finebaum’s show at 3:30

    I see what you did there, Jacob McCandles. BIG JAKE is in my Top 3 all-time fave movies. Hell, it's probably #1 !!! "Dog!" Richard Boone: "I thought you were dead." Big Jake: "Not hardly!" "You ever call me Daddy again, I'll finish this fight for good!"

    I'm in Brownsburg, just West of Indy. Super cool. Birds started singing as it began to get daylight again, like it was morning.

    Bump and Post here if you want a new coach

    Remember what Rupp used to say? "You can't get 'em soon enough for me. The sooner we put 'em away (an opponent) the better I like it." From the album "Great Moments in Kentucky Basketball with Adolph Rupp". He said that pertaining to the 1958 Final Four game against Temple. You can't get...

    KU may lead in all-time wins, but

    Had no idea Murray State was 10th. I knew WKU was high up on that list.

    Your Favorite Kentucky of all Time

    1978. I was a Junior in high school. The last time UK had won a championship I was negative 3 yrs old (1958). That 77-78 season was such a fun year. "Notre Dame had fun in St. Louis." Joe B. (at the pep rally the day after the Duke win) "Something I'm happy about in addition to winning...
