1. Today’s game is almost 10 years to the day of the last time that VMI traveled to Rupp Arena. Almost all of us remember that game as one of the defining moments of the Billy G era at Kentucky. For those who don’t remember, let me refresh your memory. A UK team that had five NBA players, Jodie Meeks, Patrick Patterson, Darius Miller, DeAndre Liggins, and Josh Harrellson, lost at home to the Keydets by the score of 111-103. Meeks scored 39 points, which was a career high at the time, but his effort was not enough as the Cats.
