“Us Against the World,” the Uproxx.com documentary series on former University of Kentucky basketball player Rodrick Rhodes’ controversial stint as head coach at Cordia High School in Lott’s Creek, Ky., began streaming Tuesday on the website.
The 10-episode series looks at how race, out-state-transfers and basketball mixed in the small Eastern Kentucky community.
Rhodes bolstered the Lions with transfers from in and out of state and took it from a 14th Region doormat to a regional power in the span of a few years.
The rapid rise of the Lions drew intense scrutiny and KHSAA sanctions for recruiting violations that included a two-year postseason ban beginning in 2014.
