Look at all of those Duke guys staring at Sheppard's ass.... in 1998, your University of Kentucky Wildcats, led by seniors Jeff Sheppard, Allen Edwards, and Cameron Mills, along with juniors Scott Padgett and Wayne Turner, were honored at Rupp Arena following their NCAA title run. More than 20,000 fans came to Rupp to show their appreciation for the Comeback Cats, not to mention witness what was becoming an annual ceremony……..a banner raising. Big Blue Nation was still reeling from being left in the middle of a dynasty-type run by previous coach Rick Pitino. But the Tubby Smith led Wildcats put together their own Championship run, culminating with a win over NCAA Tournament best friend Utah, 78-69, giving Kentucky its seventh and most recent championship. The fans that couldn't make it to Rupp Arena to see the event later celebrated by littering Tubby Smith front lawn with For Sale signs!
