"Four Dark Days"

Dana O'Neill has an interesting look at the state of Kentucky basketball as she was the journalist with the ESPN All-Access crew following the team during their miserable run. She has an up-close view with an outsider's look on the situation talking with Tom Leach, Mitch Barnhart, Billy Gillispie, and Pat Patterson.
"It's like playing for Team USA. You've got the entire state right in your ear and they don't care,'' Patterson says. "I always say it's a love-hate relationship. They love us, but they sure do hate us sometimes. My friends call up and say, 'What's the big deal? So you're struggling a little bit.' I tell them, 'Man you don't understand. This is Kentucky.'"

Good read if you're looking to kill a bit of time tonight or Friday. The more you read, the more it seems like there's quite a bit riding on this game Thursday at 1:00pm.
Go Cats.
