May 8th: On this date...


... in 2009, your University of Kentucky Wildcats and new head coach received word that Patrick Patterson would in fact return to Lexington for what would be his third and final season. Once this news hit the wire, the bookie's in Las Vegas bumped Kentucky from third choice (15/1) to win the 2010 Championship to second choice (10/1). Even weirder, Louisville's odds changed as well. They started the offseason as clear cut second choice at (8/1), behind only Kansas (7/1), but when news of Patterson broke, the filthy ones moved from 8/1 --> 10/1. This information can be used as verification that all things basketball go through the city of Lexington, not Louisville, in the Commonwealth and throughout the World. And if you remember accurately, it wouldn't be the last time these odds would move before the season started. Coach Cal would snag one more person before the month would expire.
