June 22nd: On this date...

Can't you just feel the intensity?

... in 2005, Randolph Morris sent a fax to Tubby Smith saying he was going pro after his freshman year. Despite minimal interest from NBA teams, Morris felt his game was polished enough to hang with the big boys. The freshman averaged just eight points and four rebounds during his initial campaign with the Cats. He would later go undrafted during the 2005 NBA Draft. The very fax that he sent in helped him regain his eligibility back at Kentucky, albeit after a suspension for receiving money for some of his NBA workouts.
