Josh Harrellson is Kentucky’s poster boy for patience

Hanging in Josh Harrellson’s room is a doctored version of the University of Kentucky’s 2010-11 men’s basketball poster. In the original, the 6-foot-10 Harrellson — UK’s only senior, who will play his final home game at Rupp Arena tonight against Vanderbilt — is absent. The homemade version Harrellson hung, he said, is the brainchild of Chandler Norfleet, an 11-year-old UK fan from Louisville, who inserted Harrellson’s photo into one corner. That came after several of Harrellson’s friends complained about the St. Charles, Mo., native being excluded from the promotional preseason poster.
