The University of Kentucky announced a new documentary series that will provide an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at John Calipari's program. "Inside the Madness: University of Kentucky Basketball" is a 10-episode series produced by the creators of Showtime's "A Season With."  The series debuts this Saturday, with a new episode following each week through March 31. It's the third time Calipari has opened his doors to television cameras at UK.  The "One and Not Done" 30 for 30 was an overwhelming success.  However, you couldn't say the same about ESPN's "All-Access" series from the 2012-13 preseason, a season many fans would like to forget.  By the looks of the trailer, this series could be the best yet. "What you see in the beginning of the year is not what you're going to see at the end." John Calipari had this to say about the show:

We get approached all the time to do all-access shows. The one question I always have is, what is our why? Why are we doing this? What I liked about this it's about showing the type of kids we have here and the family atmosphere we've created. The great thing is the crew can do that while being of no distraction to our team and our goals. They're around, but they're a fly on the wall. We get to open the doors to our team in a way we've never done before while I coach my team and these kids learn.

To see each week's episode, subscribe to the Facebook page.  You can also find the complete schedule and more information on the show from UK Athletics. [mobile_ad]
