Sigh, another preseason preview of the SEC where we somehow end up with Kentucky at the top again.
But how? How could a team that was picked to be first last year, wind up 9-16 and still end up first again in the preseason, you ask?
Because it’s Kentucky.
Last year the cracks began to show on the John Calipari method of team building. The recruiting was good, but instead of landing elite lottery level players, UK was running out mere late first or 2nd round players. On top of that there hasn’t been an elite level interior player for several cycles.
