It’s been mostly quiet around Kentucky Basketball during the holiday break. Mark Pope’s Wildcats closed out the non-conference a week ago and won’t play again until this coming Saturday. They took a little time off for Christmas and will spend this week getting ready for the SEC slate.
Today, Pope broke the silence with a Q&A, talking for over 10 minutes about the state of the team before the calendar turns to 2026 and the back end of the schedule. The relaunch of the denim uniforms also came up, as did the game plan around playing Jaland Lowe and Jayden Quaintance as they each ease back from injuries.
