LOOK and Download: Kentucky Basketball Posters Unveiled

Big Blue Nation can officially celebrate the upcoming season by picking up a UK men’s basketball poster at Kroger locations statewide

basketball is back and members of the Big Blue Nation can officially celebrate the upcoming season by picking up a men’s basketball poster at Kroger locations statewide starting Saturday at 8 a.m. ET.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic causing the partial closure of UK Athletics Administration offices, Kroger locations are the only distribution sources for posters at this time. Supply will be limited.

The 2020 posters feature a #TeamKentucky theme centered around the idea, clearer now more than ever during the pandemic, that as the teams representing the Commonwealth, we share in the motto, “we are all in this together.”

Both the UK men’s and women’s basketball posters feature photos of the entire 2020-21 rosters around a reclaimed wood cutout of the state of Kentucky. The poster themes evoke visuals of Kentucky coming together in a trying time.
