Amazing how this week suddenly took a turn for the better...:beer:

[teamchemistry09]

Nice. Too bad I missed it but oh well. Im just happy hes with us and not with donovan

This is one of the best late signing periods at UK in awhile, and BCG has only been on the job for 5 weeks. Amazing. He lands two people we desperately needed. A pure shooter and a pure power forward. Way to go BCG, and way to go wildcat nation for not getting down on him after Monday's unexpected twists and turns. Welcome to UK, Patrick Patterson. Glad to have you. I had really doubted it would happen, and I am glad to say I was wrong. The future is looking brighter and brighter. Wonder if the rest of the nation is getting a little uneasy with one? For BCG to reel in PP after such a short period of recruitment is unbelievable. They must be wondering what next years class will look like. I know I am. And we managed to save a scholly as well.

The live feed I was watching just ended. The last thing I saw was the screen go black and then heard a UK fan yell, "baby, baby, baby, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" This is so exciting!

[bluecat406]

Hey, COLDSTREAM, thanks so much for the extra link to a site that had it streaming live. I got on just as they were sitting down to the podium.

Your avatar is awesome.

Fred McGriff doing the Tom Emanski commercial is awesome. Him wearing that hat is classic.

[teamchemistry09]

That got voted as the worst commercial an athlete has ever done on Sportscenter's Top Ten Plays a few years back

[CatClaws1]

ITS A GREAT DAY TO BE A WILDCAT BABY!!!!!:big_grin:

[TrueblueCATfan]

Thanks. That commercial is definitely high on the scale on unintentional comedy.

"This is a defensive drills video that gets results." Haha! :beer:

The last time I felt this good about Kentucky basketball was in '98 when Cameron Mills hit the 3 point shot to put us ahead of Duke in the regional finals.
