Kentucky looks to begin 9-0 for the first time in five years when it hosts Eastern Kentucky on Sunday night.

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.
