Lachlan McLean and I were discussing what grade to give this team for the regular season on our most recent UK postgame show. I’m an educator for my full-time gig.
Grading is part of my everyday life, so a post like this should come easily to me, but taking the season as a whole makes it difficult. This team has experienced great success as a team and individuals, low points as a team and individuals, injuries, illnesses, and just about anything that can be thrown at a basketball squad.
But through it all, the Kentucky Wildcats were able to win their conference and position themselves as a high seed for the NCAA tournament.
