Since the Calipari era began, every team has had a trademark “meme” to it: the John Wall dance, Jorts, Three Goggles, and the Unibrow. When Nerlens Noel twirled his chair around and unveiled the UK logo in his flat top fade, it became a thing of legend, with fans across the Bluegrass trying to figure out how to grow one before October. Now, Archie Goodwin brings us “burr.”

After some research, we learned that “burr” is a reference to rapper Gucci Mane, and describes either icy jewelry (hence the “burr” from being cold) or “goin’ hard.”

Last night, Archie Goodwin tried to take “burr” to the next level with this tweet:
