There were some exciting headlines from tonight’s open practice and telethon — the start of a Kentucky vs. Gonzaga home-and-home series, the Blue-White Game potentially moving to Pikeville — but none are as important as the good it did for the people of Eastern Kentucky. UK Athletics just announced that tonight’s event raised over $2.4 million for flood relief. That is simply incredible. Well done, BBN.
Donations for the Kentucky Flood Relief were accepted in a number of ways on Tuesday night, including donations at the door, via the phone lines open courtside at Rupp with UK student-athletes and staff from multiple teams, as well as online.
