- Used Book in Good Condition
Basketball players and coaches come and go, but at the University of Kentucky, two things remain: the fans and the Winning Tradition.In its 95-year history, the Kentucky Wildcats have won more games than any other college basketball team. Their winning percentage is the highest in the country. They share the record for the most 20-win seasons. They have been ranked number one in the college polls more than ally other team save one. And fabled coach Adolph Rupp held the record for the most wins of any Division I college basketball coach until only last year.This new and expanded edition of The Winning Tradition brings the history of Kentucky basketball up to date. Building on the first edition's substantive history of the program from its beginnings B.R. (Before Rupp) through Joe B. Hall's tenure, Bert and Steve Nelli bring the tale into the present: the scandals during Eddie Sutton's tenure, the return to glory under Rick Pitino, and a full accounting of Tubby Smith's history-making first year are all included.
