Best Game By A Kentuckian...

Following Kentucky's victory over Tennessee today, I started to think about Darius Miller's performance. Not being able to think of a more recent example (as I'm sure their are none), this would have to be the best performance by a Kentuckian in a Wildcat uniform since Derek Anderson in 1997. Tubby Smith did not recruit in state very heavily leading to this gap in local talent. However, Billy Gillispie is changing that. Darius Miller is slowly becoming a very strong player and from what I have heard about Jon Hood coming in next year, hopefully the in-state crop of talent will flourish at Kentucky in the years to come.

Good game Darius!

3-Pointers: 3/3, 2-Pointers: 3/3, FT: 2/2, Rebounds: 3, Assists: 6, Blocks: 2, Total Points: 17

Also, big difference today in Patrick Patterson's jump shot and touch with his finger bandage off.
