McBride gets his old team — and Spradlin comes home

Boone was the exception, not the rule

No. 14 Kentucky rolled Northern Kentucky 79–28 to move to 2–0, and Asia Boone was brilliant — 21 points in 21 minutes on 7-of-11 shooting. The rest of the box score is the concern: the Cats shot 34% as a team.

“You could make a case for him being No. 1”

247Sports' Travis Branham told Inside Kentucky that five-star center commit Cherif Millogo has a case for the top spot in the 2027 class — and called him a potential lottery pick. There's a caveat, too.

Kentucky out on Diggs and Williams — so what now?

Per Jack Pilgrim of KSR, Kentucky is no longer pursuing five-star guard Diggs or five-star forward Williams, whose visit was cancelled. The obvious question: are the Cats pushing all their chips in on CJ Rosser?

Cherif MillogoCenter · Class of 2027 · Committed
Five-star commit. Branham: “from a sheer natural talent perspective, you could make a case for him being No. 1” — with a caveat about missed time (knee) and limited high-profile eval settings.

Kentucky Bias at a glance

Independent Kentucky sports media — founded by Taron Palmer in May 2019, first post May 21, 2019. Still run by Taron today: every graphic, every caption, every take.

The approach is analytical — roster fit, system, depth and player roles — not just box-score reactions. If a take is wrong, it gets owned. If a win has a problem underneath it, that gets said too.
