I remember being very disappointed when WB picked UofK over UofL. He missed out on the ‘86 championship and UofL probably would have won another one with him onboard.

Bennett is THE baddest dude to ever lace 'em up here.

Quick story. I was at the same UK basketball camp as Bennett in '83. The entire camp separated into three-on-three teams. I was on Bennett's team. First game. I took a jump shot. Made it. Bennett comes up to me and grabs me lightly by the jersey and says, "Don't shoot it unless I tell you to." So, I didn't. We came in second in the tourney. Lost to a 7-footer from Chicago. Last name Bush or something.

True story.
