FIRST!!!!!!! No but seriously, thank you TU for all of the blood, sweat, and tears you put in to this program for the past 2 years. You will be missed. Go live out your dreams and best of luck.

Great player, will never forget his lob off the backboard against South Carolina for the Lee slam. Best of luck at the next level!

What. A. Player. Funny, with all the big guards, all the high draft picks and all-stars, Tyler Ulis impressed me the most by far. It's rare to see a player who can completely dominate a game like he could, and yet was a mere 5'9". It'll be a long time before we see someone as skilled as him, or anyone with as much passion and heart. Thank you so much Mr. Ulis, and I can't wait to see you in the NBA. Keep reppin' UK!!!

I hope that he has a long and productive career in the NBA. And maybe someday he can return to coach the Cats. I'm sure going to miss watching him dominate the floor. One of my all time favorites.

Not even gonna lie, I cried after we lost to Indiana. Not necessarily because of the loss (though it hurt), but mainly because I knew Tyler would never wear the blue and white again. One of my favorite players ever at UK.

Been following the Cats since the 60's and Tyler is one of the best I've seen at UK. Damper gas always been my all time favorite but Tyler is right there with him.

Been watchzing UK since the late 80's and he is one of my favorites of all time.

The kid was just never out of control and always dictated the flow of the game. I wish he'd had a better, more consistent big man this year. It would have been even more fun to watch.

Good luck, Tyler. You'll be missed.

Good luck Tyler, I know you'll do fine. I really enjoyed tuning in to each game this year and being able to count on the smallest guy on the court having the biggest presence and most heart! Your tenacity was unmatched and second to none. I'll always remember the South Carolina game when Cal got the boot less than 2 mins in, you ran our team on offense and it really showed me(and I hated it for my own selfish reasons!) that you would be drafted and it would be this year! I hope you have a long and illustrious career in the NBA and I'll be watching! You did us proud and you will always stand out as one of my favorite players to wear the Kentucky BLUE and WHITE. Have a great journey!

Every coach in the SEC needs to log in and thank Tyler for entering the draft.
Thank you Tyler! You are my favorite Wildcat of all time!
I second that opinion. Thank you, young man, for representing the University of Kentucky. I have enjoyed your career at UK, more than any other player, and I look forward eagerly to your NBA debut. Wish you all the best in whatever you do. And, thanks for the memories !

I have been following UK basketball since 1947/48 season which ended with the original (and only) fabulous 5 winning the Olympics for the USA. In all that time I have never enjoyed watching a player more than you. You may be small but you have skills that cannot be taught only appreciated for what they are, magical. Good luck. Keep doing what you are doing . Genius wins at every level.
