PLE Project



I'm choosing to do my project on the history of Kentucky Basketball in the post-Rupp era, which is from 1972 to today. Basically this is the modern day era of UK basketball. The program has evolved a lot through time and I wanted to be able to show the progress they have made from the early dynasties, to the transition of having a new coach in Joe B. Hall, Rupp's successor. They have played in two different arenas in that time, and have also played in many Final Fours. After Hall, there was Eddie Sutton, the coached who proclaimed to "crawl to Kentucky" to take the job. That resulted in a losing season 4 years later, the first in over 60seasons. This was considered the first half of the posr-Rupp era until today.
