Mark Story writes how cruel college basketball can be and how Patterson and Meeks deserve better. Two of Kentucky's best individual players in a long time are in the middle of a dismal season and a potential meltdown of the program. Story recalls John Pelphrey saying the one thing motivating them during probation was fear. Fear of being one of the worst Kentucky teams in history.Back in the day, John Pelphrey used to say that one fear motivated the class of basketball players that stuck with the University of Kentucky through NCAA probation and went on to become Unforgettable.
"We didn't want to be known as the guys who were at Kentucky when Kentucky wasn't any good," Pelphrey would say.
How weird is it the two guys pictured above are directly involved in the disaster of 2009?
