Kentucky basketball is a University of Kentucky tradition unlike any other school I have ever seen. The campus, students and community all really do bleed blue.

The University of Kentucky has an unparallel environment for college athletics. The electricity in the air around Lexington, KY allows students to be a part of a deep seated tradition of excellence in the South Eastern Conference. While UK is namely a basketball school, every sport from swimming/diving to softball receives the same dedicated fan base that makes you proud to say you are a Wildcat.

Michala

Mostly the University of Kentucky is known for its winning basketball team. Whereas this is definitely the case, there is more to the university, as one would find if they looked deeper. It's small, but not too small, in fact some of my classes here are smaller than those I had in high school. It's a very proud, respectful, and friendly place to be.

The sports teams at the University of Kentucky are definitely what the school is most well known for, in particular the mens basketball team. After hiring new coach John Calipari and getting some of the nations top recruits, the wildcats have aspirations of yet another national championship to add to their storied legacy.
