Its Game Day in Louisville

Nathan — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 13:00:52 +0000

Good morning football fans. It’s been almost 8 months since the Big Blue has taken the field on game day and it is time to strap on the helmet and lace up the cleats. The forecast is great here in Louisville and the Cats are ready to take on the dirty birds. We have named a QB and are starting a walk-on from the city of Louisville at DE. We have the best three players that are taking the field on our sideline and the BBN looks like they are going to make a great showing at the game. I will be on the field today and in the locker room after the game to do some interviews. If any news breaks before the game I will have Hite post unless I can figure how to post on my phone. Look for some locker room videos after the game of the players. The spread is still 3 so I took the Cats and gave the 3 pts today. I like the Cats by 10 and Joker starts his coaching debut with a win. Post your prediction in the comment section. The winning prediction gets an autographed picture of Hite.

Andre Drummond 2012

brian — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 22:24:22 +0000

Andre Drummond is the #1 player in the 2012 class. This kid has all kinds of raw talent and is huge. Drummond has a huge list of schools he is interested in, but UK is not on that list yet. One can only think it is just a matter of time before he puts UK on his list. UK is still picking up players for the 2011 class but can you imagine putting Drummond and Kyle Anderson on the court together? Anderson is 6′8″ and Drummond is 6′11″ and could be absolutely dominate together. Currently Drummond’s list is UCONN, Duke, Georgetown, Louisville, North Carolina and Pittsburgh. He is definitely the top player for that class and could be the best player out of the 2011 and 2012 classes. When you watch the video below you will see his size and how he makes the goal look small.

Andre Woodson Cut From UFL Team

brian — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 19:09:49 +0000

Andre Woodson has been cut from the Hartford Colonials. Woodson is one of UK’s best QB’s in the most recent years. Who can forget the pass to Stevie Johnson to beat UofL and then later that same season they reconnected to beat #1 LSU. Woodson has had a tough go at it since his time at UK. He was drafted by the NY Giants in 2008 but nothing has gone his way since then. We wish Andre the best of luck for his next move what ever that may be.

In Volleyball last night. Coach Cal was in attendance and brought the ladies some good luck. He even tweeted his enthusiasm about the match:
UKCoachCalipari: “How about Coach Skinner and the volleyball team? Five-set win with a rocking, great crowd in Memorial Coliseum. Let’s keep it going!!!”
Lets hope this is a sign of things to come on Saturday.

Williams-Farmer – Its Official

Hite — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 02:10:41 +0000

Our Unforgettable Richie Farmer has made it official today that he will be running for lieutenant governor with KY Senate President David Williams at the top of the ticket.
Gotta love the picture on the WilliamsFarmer.com site of Richie tossing a bball around.
We wish Richie the best of luck and it will be a bit disappointing not seeing Richie’s name on all the gas pumps in KY; those pumps that he inspects as part of his duties as State Agriculture Commissioner.
