The title of this thread is  a bit of a misnomer as very little is going on right now in the world of Kentucky basketball.  All of the players are on break and thus the news is spotty at best.  The only real tidbit that I can give you is that I spoke with a player just before the holidays and he told me that "team unity is better right now than at any point in the last two years."  That is a big statement and for those close to the team, you know how important this will be.

In other news, make sure and check out Gonzaga-Memphis tomorrow.  These are two teams that I never believe in and both may actually be legit this year.  I will be interested to see how this one goes.

I will be at the Lex Catholic tournament all week.  If you see me, come say hi.  We will have updates on here from all the holiday tourneys and I hope you all have a continued good set of holidays.
