March 7th: On this date...
...in 1992, your #10 University of Kentucky Wildcats honored the most compelling group of seniors ever as The Unforgettables walked onto the Rupp Arena floor one last time. The quartet of Deron Feldhaus, Sean Woods, John Pelphrey, and Richie Farmer changed the culture of a basketball powerhouse that had buried itself in NCAA sanctions into (ultimately) one of the most talked about teams in the country. Make no mistake, though, as the most dominant player on the floor was super sophomore Jamal Mashburn, who had 30 points in the 99-88 shootout win over Allan Houston and Tennessee. On the senior side, Sean Woods got ejected and spent most of the day in the locker room, not before dishing out six assists. John Pelphrey (9 points - 7 assists - 5 steals - 4 rebounds), Deron Feldhaus (13 points - 4 rebounds), and Richie Farmer (15 points - 4 assists) were enough of a supporting cast to help Mash send the boys out on a high note. The game was also the last Rupp Arena game for "The Voice of the Wildcats" Cawood Ledford.
