Description

Kentucky has both the most all-time wins and is second all-time winning percentage in college basketball. Kentucky also leads in total NCAA tournament appearances, is first in NCAA tournament wins, and ranks second to UCLA in NCAA championships. Kentucky is the only school with 5 different NCAA Championship coaches (Rupp, Hall, Pitino, Smith, Calipari). The Wildcats play their home games in Rupp Arena, named for their former coach, Adolph Rupp. The team's huge fan base is often referred to as the "Big Blue Nation" and is credited with popularizing Midnight Madness. A Reader's Guide to UK Basketball summarizes these accomplishments in a clear and concise manner.
