On This Day in UK Basketball History

On December 1, 1950, UK plays its first game in the new, $3.9 million, 11,500-seat Memorial Coliseum. Skeptics label the building a “white elephant.”  The Wildcats made the first game played in Memorial Coliseum a memorable one as they routed the West Texas State Buffaloes.

 

On December 1, 2011, Kentucky blocked 18 St. John's shots for the most blocks ever recorded by a Kentucky team.
