Back then the NIT was a very nice tournament and had some of the better teams. That was a great win and showed UK fans our future was bright. The next year, 1977 UK could have won it all because they had the talent to do it and in 1978 it was a slam dunk year. UK was best from start to finish. That was a fun run for us UK fans.

Cornbread Maxwell was a tough player for Charlotte. This may have been Reggie Warford's best game of his UK career. |

I have a book called The Rupp Years by Tev Laudeman . it covers each year Rupp coached with a few pages on each team. Great book. If you go back far enough, many of the best teams chose the NIT over the NCAA. The NIT had guaranteed $ and a trip to New York city, plus the NIT gave invitations before the NCAA. If you passed on the NIT and the NCAA snubbed you, you were left out. Sometime in the 50's, the NCAA started requiring conference champs to choose them. |

Notice how more videos are being released about UK basketball now? Since Pope got here, he's brought folks back to looking forward to the games again.
