University of Kentucky Athletics: Men's Basketball Oral History Project

Project Summary

This project documents the history of the University of Kentucky men's basketball team. Early interviews were conducted as part of a tribute to broadcaster Claude Sullivan. Later interviews were originally created for the "From the Rafters of Rupp," a program hosted by former basketball player Kyle Macy. Macy conducts many of the interviews in this collection. Interviews explore players' careers, experiences at the University of Kentucky as players and students, memorable games and seasons, the NCAA tournament as well as many of UK's national championships. Finally, many former players discuss being drafted and careers in the NBA, as well as life after basketball.
