Patterson back in Lex is always a BIG deal man. He helped bring us out of the “Gillispie” dark ages, so show some respect. Still one of my all-time favorites. Will do our young team some good to see this guy, his attitude, and how hard he workes. Saddens me that he didn’t get a ring…Pat, thanks for being part of the family!!!
I really hope what Anderson said after last year is true and he and some of the other vets and current NBA players come back over the summer to spend some time with the new players and returnees (most of whom should be on campus in June). The pride in the program that they have can be a major peer motivator.
Our title team 2 years ago had the benefit of practicing/playing pick-up/watching the Dominican Team, the NBA guys waiting for the lockout to end/all star Cats, Rondo (here most of the summer), and the Thunder (practiced here for a day or 2 thanks to Nazr). That was a huge factor in our guys being as good as they were as early as they were.
6 – You’re right. The summer of 2011 was a perfect storm for that team, with the NBA lockout, the Dominican team, and UK alumni coming together to jump start Davis, Kidd-Gilchrist, and company. I hope Cal can pull together something similar this summer.
best check and see if #1 is a true blue fan, or an invader, no true blue fan could ever say “who cares” toward Patrick Patterson, the true example of what hard work and determination will do for you…I can’t thank him enough for all that he has done for the big blue nation….I will always be a fan, and I love the fact that he is playing with big cuz…
4) Lucas did get to do it all over again and he chose Texas…
As for Patterson, for him to commit to UK under BCG shows some significant love for our program. It’s easy to commit to Coach Cal. We all have love for Wall, Cousins, Knight, Jones, Davis, MKG, etc but none of those guys would have came here under BCG.
must be cool to just be able to show up at the Joe Craft center and be able to do what you want to do because you are #lafamilia. Lots of benefits to being in the family, once in always in.
Lucas days seem like it was just yesterday. I thought he was a UK lock for sure. Crazy how times have changed, we were hanging on our seats for guys like Lucas and now..well we all know what is going on on.
Dude I’m not a troll. Get a life losers. Does he really care if your in town. Sorry I’m not beating off cause he in town. just sad you are. He’s here to work out for the nba. How does that help uk?
21–you’re kidding right? Him being here practicing with the guys on campus and giving them pointeres won’t help? Just having the current team see an NBA guy working out won’t help?
All that $$ spent on personal chefs and colorful lights for the locker room, maybe UK shouldve invested in a top notch weight room instead of a Total Gym and a bunch of Shake Weights.

Who cares
#1, We do!

Can we please get Jai Lucas in on a podcast? I’d like to ask him if he could do it all over again if he’d choose Kentucky.
#1 is either an idiot or a troll. #3 sums it up and I love Rockfield’s suggestion.

The Lexington Chipotle’s profit will triple these next few months.
Lucas is in the background somewhere getting some more towels for the people working out.
#1 is an assbag
#10 the last jersey to go up was Mashburn.
PPat getting ripped.
Patterson vs. Randle 1 on 1, who wins?

Bobby hates his Mommy.
Wait, where are our returning players for next year? They are not in that picture.
21. Bobby. You really have no flippin clue do you. Why don’t you just go jump off that bridge between your ghetto city and Indiana.
21/ Don’t be sad because I’m beating off. I’m certainly not!
Oh yea you guys are right, I take back everything #respect.
We see you workin it, HossCat! Welcome HOME, PatPat!

Where’s Kyla Wiltcher? He should be living in the weight room.
