Back in the spotlight


For just the 20th time ever, Kentucky has taken its place on the cover of Sports Illustrated. In my opinion this is the first huge sign of Calipari making UK a brand once again. The cover features John Wall, likely the number one overall pick of next year's draft. What I like best, is that just like ESPN and all the rest of the outlets, analysts are focusing on him and forgetting about the rest of the firepower on the squad. Sure he is the glue that holds it together, but without DeMarcus Cousins and Patrick Patterson, this team wouldn't be 15-0. The way I see it, I'm fine with teams putting all their focus on Wall. Everyone has so far and we have fared just fine. Hopefully this team can keep its momentum going and keep working towards that one number that matters. 8.

Why is 8 the number that matters?
