Kentucky

From Tuesday's media opportunity with Kentucky Coach Billy Gillispie

On playing for first place in the SEC...
"You always want to win first place. There are only four games left. There is still 25 percent of our conference's schedule left. So, it's quite a bit, but we are very fortunate to be where we are. We know we have a lot left to do. We have a great deal of improvement to make if we are going to do what we want to do before it's all over."

It's getting harder to trust Billy Gillispie. Listen to the UK coach long enough, and you'll come away believing that the sky is green, unicorns are real, and the economy is doing just fine.

But there's one thing Gillispie can't sell me on - even with that power tie, firm handshake and Cheshire cat grin.

"This is Kentucky, not Jodie Meeks. This is not a one-man team."

DIRK MINNIFIELD: THE DUNK

 

 

Editor's Early Preview

Ever since the arrival of former Kentucky assistant Billy Dononvan to Gainesville in 1996, the Florida-Kentucky rivalry has had special meaning. It was the storied tradition of UK against the upstart Gators. The flashy new kids on the block vs. the battle-tested veterans. Jason Williams, Mike Miller, David Lee, Anthony Roberson and Joakim Noah against Scott Padgett, Tayshaun Prince, Keith Bogans, Gerald Fitch and Ramel Bradley. Orange and blue against the Big Blue.
