Book Overview

Kentucky coaching legend Adolph Rupp once said, "We feel that every boy who puts on a Kentucky uniform just plays a little better than he would in one of another color." Nothing could better describe the power of the Bluegrass mystique in the world of college basketball.


Wildcat Madness is the story of University of Kentucky basketball as told by players, coaches, opponents, fans, and the media. Weaving a timeless tapestry of heroes, characters, and headlines, it salutes the great players, teams, traditions, moments, rivalries, venues, and fans that make up Wildcat basketball lore. The author's all-time Kentucky team and the rosters from all seven NCAA championship squads round out this stirring tribute to the Big Blue.


The rafters still ring with the daunting achievements of the Fabulous Five--the back-to-back championship teams of 1948 and '49 led by All-Americans Alex Groza and Ralph Beard. Other greats who appear in Wildcat Madness include Frank Ramsey, Cliff Hagan, Cotton Nash, Dan Issel, Louie Dampier, Kevin Grevey, Jack Givens, Kyle Macy, Rex Chapman, Jamal Mashburn, Antoine Walker, Tayshaun Prince, Chuck Hayes--and many more.
