A single tweet from former Kentucky Wildcat player Derek Anderson shook the Big Blue Nation earlier in the week when he announced that he wanted to join the coaching staff. His post was met with mixed reviews from the fan base, with some questioning Anderson’s approach while others were yearning for a former player to roam the sidelines.
Anderson, who played under Rick Pitino at Kentucky from 1995-1997, tweeted out on Feb. 8 that he wants to “join the Staff NOW!” and has regularly posted his thoughts from what he’s seen when Kentucky has taken the court this season.
