The grades are in, and the Cats passed with flying colors. UK released its fall term grades for all 22 teams in its athletic department on Friday, including John Calipari's basketball team. For the second straight semester, the Cats posted better than a B average.
Officially, UK posted a 3.061 grade-point average, which includes all competing scholarship and non-scholarship players. Kentucky's GPA for its competing scholarship players was a 3.066.
“Really proud to coach kids with high aspirations both on and off the court,” Coach Cal tweeted a few days earlier when he read the initial grade report.
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.
