Jodie Meeks

It was a national coming out party for Kentucky’s Jodie Meeks after a 54-point effort helped the Wildcats embarass Tennessee, 90-72.  Meeks broke a record held for 39 years by Dan Issel, who had 53 points in a game against Ole Miss.  UT tried five different defenders on Meeks to no avail.  He made 10 of 15 three-pointers.

Walter Cornett, of Glendale, Kentucky, is the owner and operator of Walter’s Wildcat World. He founded WildcatWorld.com in 1998 making it one of the oldest Kentucky basketball fan sites in operation today.
