That really is nuts that Kentucky had never had one until 4 years ago.

The Wooden Award has only been around about 30-ish years. But still, given all the winning they consistently do, it is shocking.

When we made the Final Four I looked into schools that had National Championships in football and basketball.

If we had won the NC, we would have joined Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State, UCLA, Florida, Syracuse, and Maryland as the only schools with championships in both sports.

Of those, only Michigan, Ohio State, and UCLA also have baseball championships.

I say we go ahead and join that company in the next couple years.
