It’s been a week since the Kentucky basketball season came to a disappointing end in the Sweet Sixteen at Philips Arena in Atlanta but when you reflect on the year, this group of kids did things that people said weren’t possible.

 

In mid-February, a large portion of national media believed the Wildcats were headed for the NIT or a first-weekend exit in the NCAA tournament. It took a four-game losing streak to help them get things together but that led to an SEC Tournament title and a Sweet Sixteen appearance. That’s not the result desired but this team gave more than what was predicted.

 

John Calipari reflected on the season in the video below, which he admits was one that he enjoyed from start to finish. You even get to hear the message that Drake delivered to the team while in town for Big Blue Madness.

 

This year didn’t end as planned but if the majority of the team returns, it was a building block for what could be a special 2018-2019 season.
