Is Alex following in Doron's footsteps as the new "Team No Sleep" enforcer? Rising sophomore who decided to come back for a championship run...if he starts tweeting pictures of his socks and asking "Who up," I'm calling it. Leave it to Jarrod Polson to one-up him and post a video of the team sleeping on Instagram (cue Instagram video vs. Vine fight):@TrillWill15 wasn't safe either. pic.twitter.com/Ev1J99o7T6

Patrick Patterson held a Q&A on Twitter last night with fans, and had some pretty interesting answers, like...My team is boring http://t.co/kX8zj1zlU8

Matt and the crew talked about this on the radio show this morning, and agreed with Patrick that 2010 would have won. I've gone back and forth about it in my head, and can only come to the conclusion that it needs to be settled during this year's alumni game. Patrick also said that he wasn't satisfied with his career at UK because he didn't win a National Championship and he sometimes regrets not sticking around longer. And in case you were curious about his stance on renovating Rupp vs. building a new arena:“@saylor_austin: Do you think your 2010 team could have beaten the 2012 team? #BBN @pdpatt” in a heartbeat

Sounds good to me. Other highlights: -- He thinks the best player on next year's team will be Julius Randle -- If he could play against any current or former UK player, he'd want to play Sky Walker and Mashburn -- The toughest player he's ever had to defend is John Wall -- He couldn't pick just one favorite UK moment, so he listed three: "Demarcus "call me" moment in Mississippi State OR watching Jodie score 54 OR SEC Tourney" -- How often does he miss being at Kentucky? "Every second of everyday." Miss you too, PPatt. From WBA to country music superstar?“@kbrew31: @pdpatt Renovate Rupp or build new arena?” Renovate. Perfect location already Add suites & more comfortable chairs & scoreboard

I think the BBN needs to hear this, Jarrod. It looks like Marcus Lee got his volleyball fix this week: I think Kyle Wiltjer may have had his fill of China:"This is one for y'all Kentucky boys out there!" "50 miles ahead and I'm feeling dead!" - @jpolson05's attempt at a country song. Hahaha

Don't tell Nazr Mohammed he's old. Nazr did Bikram Yoga AND Crossfit in one day. And then probably went home to do Insanity: Speaking of hot yoga, anyone who has ever attempted it will appreciate this ad on Craigslist. Ramel Bradley letting his popcorn ride the escalator makes me REALLY NERVOUS:Dance dance revolution #haha #killingitalone https://t.co/ErOHqSrt7R

Those steps are approaching way too quickly. What if he doesn't pick it up in time? It will spill and get all soggy from the soda...aaaaah! Doesn't he know popcorn is a sacred food?? I'd like to know what class at UK gets away with showing "The Devil Wears Prada" so I can go back in time and take it:Matinée!!! #MovieHead #Superman #MyFirstVinePost https://t.co/BFohe5i1DZ

RANDALL COBB AND PAPA BROOKS TOGETHER AGAIN:The Devil Wears Prada for class today? Are you kidding me.

They are the two best friends that anyone could have! Poor Glenn Holt got cut out of this picture:One of Kentucky all time greats Randall Cobb. A pleasure to coach. pic.twitter.com/JH31RFuYjA

Speaking of Randall, he is not happy that his server at Coldstone didn't sing for a tip:How great is this late night at the Hilton. My guys Glenn Holt, Randall Cobb, and Arron Boyd. I'm a lucky guy. pic.twitter.com/iDQ3DEbnj4

How can you not sing for Randall Cobb?? What did Erin Calipari think when she heard her dad was going to be the honorary pace car driver at the Quaker State 400?Ummmm... Why didnt u sing??? I'm calling corporate!!! https://t.co/T6NsmPf5R0

But you do have to keep your car neat, right Erin? This week's "Tweet That Makes You Go Aww"? Baby Doron Lamb:Bad move. He's a terrible driver. “@KYHoopsBuzz: Calipari driving pace car for the Quaker State 400. http://t.co/bLXRl5XVEx”

TWEET OF THE WEEK: Tod Lanter There were a lot of great Father's Day pics on Twitter this week, but this one from Tod Lanter may take the cake. Allow me to channel Aaron Flener here and give you the Awkward UK Photo breakdown: 1. Going by the Tod's mom's hair and the awesomeness of his dad's hat, this must have been taken in the early to mid-90's, possibly circa 1995 going by the "cat scratch" Kentucky font. 2. Two words: fanny pack. Two more: cuffed jorts. 3. Tod's little sister seems content in her "Blossom" style sunhat, complete with a bow in case you doubted for one second she was a girl. 4. Tod's posture says it all; even at a young age, he was a P-I-M-P. Does he care that his shirt is probably two sizes too big for him? No. He's just excited to be at the amusement park with his family having a blast. Until next time, RT plz?Me n mom pic.twitter.com/XBOm8f7fAd
