Jamin Davis’ 2020 football season was filled with the highest of highs and lowest of lows. The middle linebacker did not even expect to be the starter when players were sent home after COVID-19 canceled spring practice. Two months later he learned his friend, Chris Oats, was in the hospital following a severe medical emergency.…

Sitting at 8-14 on the year with NCAA Tournament hopes hanging on by a conference-tournament-title-run-sized thread, it’s abundantly clear Kentucky’s 2020-21 roster is deeply rooted with issues, and it has been all season. And while the team’s struggles can’t be narrowed down to one particular issue as the sole reason for the losses – the…
With two games left to play in the regular season, Kentucky could finish anywhere from fourth to ninth in the conference standings, which could mean the difference between playing first thing Thursday, last thing Thursday night, or, if all the dominos fall into place, Friday afternoon.

Something about the Ole Miss Rebels continues to give Kentucky fits. On what was Senior Day on Sunday afternoon in Memorial Coliseum, the No. 19 Wildcats Women’s Basketball Team (16-7, 9-6 in SEC) fell for the second time this season to Ole Miss (10-10, 4-10 in SEC) by a final score of 73-69. Kentucky lost…
Brad White’s unit finished fourth in the SEC’s total defense category in both 2019 and 2020. Kentucky has also led the conference in pass defense in the same time span. The UK defense has been opportunistic, physical and sound, but key personnel have moved on to the NFL Draft. Gone are starters Jamin Davis, Kelvin…
You’ve seen the movies. The ones where the entire town is enthralled by the high school football team. The pressure feels insurmountable, adversity strikes, yet the team still overcomes all odds as the conquering heroes. Hollywood makes it sound too good to be true, and it almost always is.

For nine minutes, it was going so well. Kentucky started this game like the team we’d started to believe in, sprinting out to a 13-5 lead and leading Florida by ten with 10:52 to go until halftime. From there, it unraveled. The Gators’ zone completely stymied the Cats, who turned into the old versions of…
Sitting at 8-14 on the year with just two games remaining on the schedule in Ole Miss and South Carolina next week, Kentucky’s opportunity for earning an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament are officially gone. Better yet, the ever-so-slight chance UK could put together an argument that they may be deserving of an at-large…
