This has been quite the exciting offseason for Kentucky basketball fans as the John Calipari regime has stormed the gates of Lexington and rubbed those two things together and jump-started the basketball pulse of everyone in town. We’ve seen recruiting coups, Twitter madness, LeBron photo ops and just about everything else filed in the dictionary under “un-Clydely”. All of these things, of course, raise the profile nationally of the Wildcats and, today, the pre-season buzz got another boost as a couple of subjective rankings were released.
- Jeff Goodman released a list of the best basketball games of the 2009-10 season and the Cats found themselves occupying three of the top five slots. Their New York City made-for-TV matchup with the UConn Huskies topped the list and the UNC battle found its place at #3. The annual grudge-fest with the Filthy Cards took the fifth spot.
- Also, Andy Katz took his best guess as to what names would be on the pre-season list of Wooden Award candidates and included Patrick Patterson. Katz also listed John Wall as a name who could work his way into contention by the end of the year.

I just noticed the Poll concerning BTI. Peer pressure forced me to vote No. Sorry BTI.

BTI? I think those “two things” are called paddles. The first part of the post was a bit confusing, as my mind is completely in the gutter at all times.

Glad to see the Vols on the list. That KU game in Knoxville will be one of the biggest non-conference games in the history of TBA.

Is Pitino in the running for the Woody award?

The Vols will get destroyed!

I happened to be intoxicated the other night and made a bet with my buddy (a vol fan) that KU would beat UT by twenty-five. If I was sober I would have pushed for 15, but I really can’t see Tenn being much better, if at all, than last year. And Kansas is going to be really good this year in my opinion.
