On February 13th College GameDay will be coming to Lexington for the UT match up. The game will be on ESPN that evening, airing at 9 locally, but Coach Cal wants the arena full well before tip. That's right, Cal wants Rupp to be sold out for the GameDay show that morning. Here's what Cal had to say...
"I know our fans are the greatest in the world,” said Coach John Calipari. “They have proved that to me from the moment I arrived on campus. But College GameDay provides us a platform to show the rest of the nation what makes University of Kentucky basketball so special. I personally invite all of our fans – from across the Commonwealth and beyond – to join me and members of the Big Blue Nation at Rupp Arena to show everyone that the greatest tradition in college basketball is alive and well in Lexington, Kentucky."
UK has a full schedule of events that day to bring the fans out, including former players signing autographs, free UK2K memorabilia and Coach Cal addressing the crowd. Find out more here.
We can only hope that Bobby Knight will be there.
