Welcome to Walter’s Wildcat World
The Legacy of Kentucky Basketball
Since our founding in 1998, our goal has always been to honor the Wildcats’ rich history, heroes, and tradition. We went ad-free at the beginning of 2024 and don’t generate any revenue through this website. It’s a labor of love.
From the hardwood of Memorial Coliseum to the glory of Rupp Arena, Kentucky basketball has built one of the richest traditions in college sports. With a legacy that began over a century ago, the program has become a symbol of excellence, passion, and pride.
Celebrate the players who shaped the program—from Jack “Goose” Givens to Dan Issel, from Jamal Mashburn to Anthony Davis. Their skill, leadership, and dedication elevated Kentucky to greatness.
Kentucky has captured 8 national championships and countless SEC titles, making the Wildcats one of the most decorated programs in NCAA history.
Adolph Rupp, Joe B. Hall, Rick Pitino, Tubby Smith, and John Calipari—each left a mark on the program’s soul and led Kentucky to new heights.
