Injury free, Green more confident in 2nd season



LEXINGTON Quade Green endured a lot of painful hardships during his freshman campaign. The sophomore guard overcame an eye injury and a back injury, adding to his struggles as a freshman.

As I arrive in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina to black bear hunt for what I am thinking will be my final hunt there I can’t help but feel an old friend is moving. There is a lonely feeling in my heart for a place I have hunted since the 70’s, but I am well aware that things […]

Baker puts up big numbers for pro’s

Vaught’s Views

Kentucky’s annual Pro Day — which was on the SEC Network last week and provided another great recruiting edge for coach John Calipari — provided some interesting numbers for the Cats.
