Anderson didn't play in the 97 championship game against Arizona. Anderson plays, UK wins, simple as that. As for the 98 team, they wanted it more, they played their ass' off to win that championship, how many did Duke have them down and they came back.

I think the fans of UK should get some of the blame for this year. Everyone whined and complained about Tubby not getting McDonalds All-Americans and 5 star players, well he finally did and they have proven NOTHING but being OVERRATED. Take West Virginia for example. Not one, I repeat, NONE, NOT ONE of their players was a top 150 player in the nation in high school and WVU is ranked in the top 10 in the nation. None were more than a 3 star player in high school. How in the world UK beat WVU I will never know. Just because you get 5 star players and McDonalds All-Americans doesn't mean you are gonna be awesome, and that is UK's situation. UK has 4 players that were in the top 50 in the nation overall, not just their position, but OVERALL.

Tubby watched Lofton play many times, watched him lead his team to a state championship when he was a Junior and runner-up as a Senior. If he couldn't tell that Lofton was gonna be a big time college player then something is wrong with him, that means he has no sense for talent. He recruited 5 star players just because they were 5 star players.

I agree. Not enough of the hard working, hussling blue collar players like in the past. These players to me acts like UK owes them something for coming to play for them. :ChairHit:
