The Fiddlin' Five: The 1958 team was given its nickname by Rupp due to his perception that they tended to "fiddle" early in games. However, they would right their ship in time to give Rupp his fourth and last national title.
Also
The 1954-55 Undefeated Team, which went 25-0 in the regular season and defeated LSU in a playoff to earn the Southeastern Conference bid to the NCAA tournament. However, several of the team's players had technically graduated during the 1953-54 season (when Kentucky was banned from intercollegiate play due to a point shaving scandal) and were prohibited from tournament play. Despite the wishes of the players, Adolph Rupp refused to allow the team to play in the tournament, thus leading to the team being called one of the best teams to not win the national title.
The Football section has been relieved of inaccurate text relating a false urban myth about Bear Bryant receiving a cigarette lighter at a banquet at which Adolph Rupp received a Cadillac.

I agree that there should be a separate page for UK Basketball. Much like the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WildManKY ( talk • contribs) 21:20, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
I just created the Kentucky Wildcats basketball page, but it can use a lot of help from those that have the time to work on it. WildManKY 21:53, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
I would like to begin cleaning up this article as it is of Top Importance to the Wiki Kentucky project, but it's quality is only slightly above average. If we can get this article to featured status, then that would be outstanding! WildManKY ( talk) 22:47, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Kentucky Wildcats's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 03:08, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
