Witness: Jodie Meeks.

It all started with Lebron...Nike's "Witness" trademark advertising pitch can be seen on billboards, posters, t-shirts, and who knows what else. The new athlete being graced by this mark of greatness is Kentucky's own, Jodie Meeks. You can buy the shirts here, or probably any sports store in Lexington. Must suck to go to Tennessee...

Quality Veteran of the Week

Ashley Judd

Ok with all of these rumors and nonsense flying around about the coaching position at Kentucky I thought that this weeks QV would maybe get our minds off of it for a couple minutes but like all the others I've gotten sucked back in and decided to follow the theme this week. So this weeks QV goes to actress Ashley Judd, age 40. The famed Kentucky Basketball fanatic is a no brainer. It also might be an omen that she just turned 40 several months ago qualifying her for this honor during this week. She's the type of QV that no matter how things are going in the season she always going to be the one telling you to keep your head up and there is plenty of time left to turn the season around(get that body right just in time for beach season). She's the one who believes it's not over till the clock hits triple zero and that tanking it to get a better draft pick is unacceptable. While the game is out of reach and everyone is else cheesing it up on the bench talking about next week she is reminding you that there is still 1:03 on the clock and you are only up 48. Just the kind of girl I want keeping my rookies heads in the game and to remind them to keep grinding. I'll be honest I've always thought she was a tad overrated but any girl looks better in blue. Am I right fellas?

BYE BYE BILLY CLYDE

The University of Kentucky has released a statement that Billy Gillispie is out as coach of the Wildcats after two seasons. A highly speculated move finally has come to fruition and the whirlwind of rumors of who is to be the next coach of Kentucky will swirl at a feverish pace. There is a press conference to take place at 4:30 PM today to formally announce the decision. For more on the situation here is the story on ESPN.com: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=4021232

Fair Warning....

Again, YDF has been notified by a number of credible sources in and around the University of Kentucky athletic department that Billy Gillispie will be fired before the end of the week. That being the case, Kentucky has to have someone with superior credentials of Billy Clyde's on board to make this tough decision. That being said, there are about 3 coaches that come to mind: Billy Donovan, Jay Wright, or John Calipari. Of course, if Memphis and Villanova make it to the Final Four that will make it more difficult for Kentucky to have serious contact with them. But from the roars we're hearing in Lexington, Cats fans would love any of the three on the sidelines next season. We're told to be expecting the news to hit papers around friday morning.
