The long wait is over, as the Kentucky Wildcats will play their first exhibition game Friday night against the Kentucky Wesleyan Panthers.
This will be the first of two exhibitions games vs. actual opponents before the ‘Cats take off for Madison Square Garden, where they will have a date with the Duke Blue Devils on Nov. 9th.
Coming off of a 9-16 season, this year has already been dubbed the “Coach Cal Revenge tour,” by some of Big Blue Nation, and it couldn’t be more fitting.
After a busy offseason that included some staff changes and as always some major roster turnover, Coach Calipari seems as fired up as ever to get this season started.
