Agreed. Milan is a way bigger story than HOF coach Adelman dying, or Myles Garrett traded to the rams or aj brown traded to the pats. Kentucky is a way bigger story than these nfl and nba stories. I bet they will even give more coverage to the Stanley Cup and NBA finals thsn Milan to Kentucky. It’s all a big conspiracy.

It made their front page. That’s about all we can reasonably expect.

Basketball program lands recruit in June isn’t really top sports news when the NHL and NBA are wrapping up their postseasons and two blockbuster NFL trades happened the same day.

I'm surprised the big 3 networks didn't break in to regular programming. The fact that they didn't just proves that the mainstream media hates us.

I don't understand the constant need of justification and validation from ESPN.
I personally couldn't care less if they wrote one article about us.
Just win baby.

I wish Kentucky play Duke this year Duke would blow them off the court
Duke blows alright, their coach does too, that’s how he recruits so well. One thing for sure is that they will beat Louisvilles a— again and again and again. The cards are overrated again this year with pieces that that won’t mesh as a team. They will just collect their money and move on.

Of course its not on the front page. According to many on this board, UK basketball is dead and buried.

The reason is media attention is a major factor in program recognition for recruiting. Above someone said Duke would blow us out? Why? They have lost their best players so I don't think they would beat us as the season progresses.
