A guide to how I use Twitter:
1) I tweet highlights, not play-by-play
2) If I can find your tag, I'll use it.
3) I might forget. Sorry.
4) If your team has a tag, I'll use it when good things happen.
5) I'll still tweet the stuff that doesn't go your way, I just won't tag you.

Worrying whether Mark Pope can recruit at an “elite”level is a little disingenuous considering UK had that for 15 years + fans got tired of seeing elite talent go 1-n-done after crashing out of the postseason. And what kind of teams beat UK the last 5 years? 🤔. So, let’s see

Kentucky high school basketball doesn't have classes separating its smallest schools from its biggest or privates from its publics. Some folks don't like that. But if it did, you'd never get this.

To look at Kentucky, you might wonder how two schools 341 miles apart, one in the mountains, one almost as west as you can go, could have anything in common. The answer: Basketball.
