Sources Say Podcast

It wasn’t pretty, but the Cats got it done in Columbia, leaving Colonial Life Arena with a victory over South Carolina to end the three-game losing streak. More importantly, it likely locked up a spot in the NCAA Tournament for Kentucky, putting bad-loss potential in the rearview mirror and focusing solely on good wins the rest of the way — but that doesn’t mean it’s gonna be easy, starting with a...

Pizza and beer? It’s the only way to move past a two-game losing streak for your beloved Kentucky Wildcats. Sources Say is LIVE from PARLOUR PIZZA at the Harrodsburg Road location in Lexington, breaking down the team’s losses at Florida and vs. Georgia to hit pause on the optimism after winning eight of nine. UK held an eight-point lead against the Bulldogs on Tuesday, only to trail by as many as...

What a week it’s been for Kentucky basketball! It started with a big-time road win at Arkansas, followed by a statement response at home vs. Oklahoma — a desperate team whose coach’s seat is red-hot. Now, the Wildcats have won seven of eight ahead of another MASSIVE opportunity against Tennessee with the Volunteers looking for revenge. Unfortunately for them, it’s the debut of the denim throwbacks...

After an 0-2 start in the SEC, Kentucky has responded with five straight victories — the latest being back-to-back must-have wins at Rupp Arena vs. Texas and Ole Miss. Can the Wildcats keep it rolling with back-to-back road trips to Nashville and Fayetteville this week against two ranked opponents? It’d be massive for the resume, but it’ll be much easier said than done, especially with Jaland Lowe...

The Cardiac Cats did it again! Down by 17-plus in back-to-back true road games, Kentucky stormed back to first beat LSU in Baton Rouge, then Tennessee in Knoxville for Mark Pope’s first three-game winning streak in the SEC regular season as head coach. Crazy, right? Against the Tigers, it was all about Malachi Moreno’s buzzer-beater — one we’ll all be talking about for years to come, fighting back...

Kentucky‘s backcourt now has a Jaland Lowe-sized hole for the rest of the year as PG1 will undergo season-ending surgery on his shoulder. What’s next for the Wildcats, particularly in his absence? There was a lot to like about the performance against Mississippi State — even with Lowe out for most of the game. Is it sustainable? What do we think of Jasper Johnson stepping up in that spot? Will he...

Missouri was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Kentucky, a nightmarish season for Mark Pope and the Wildcats that doesn’t appear to be getting better anytime soon. How do you give up a 15-2 run to end the game and choke away an eight-point lead in the final segment to earn a Quad 3 loss? Unfortunately, that’s what we have to talk about tonight on Sources Say. The irony is we talked about t...

Things did NOT go well for the Kentucky Wildcats in Tuscaloosa, getting blown out once again at Alabama in a game that was never really close — even at full strength with Jaland Lowe and Jayden Quaintance out there. What went wrong and how is it fixed with a winnable run of games coming up? What’s the deal with the weirdness from Mark Pope (plus the opposite from Nate Oats, who wasn’t shy about th...

Happy New Year’s Eve, Big Blue Nation! We know you have big plans tonight to ring in 2026, but how about a new edition of Sources Say to help pass the time until the ball drops at midnight? That’s at 12 AM, so how about rolling with, say, 12 PM ET for this one? We’ve got plenty to talk about, obviously, with Kentucky finishing 2025 on a high note winning four straight — including two against name-...

Sources Say has some crow to eat, and they’re bringing in a heavy-hitter to prepare some of it in the form of Michael Moreno — former Eastern Kentucky basketball star and brother of current Wildcat, Malachi Moreno. Where did things go wrong to start the season and how did this team climb out of rock bottom to pull off back-to-back wins vs. Indiana and St. John’s before Christmas? There is still wo...

Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving, Big Blue Nation! Kentucky is coming off back-to-back wins over Loyola (Md.) and Tennessee Tech — impressive efforts for the Wildcats leading to massive blowouts — but all eyes are on the week ahead with a pair of ranked opportunities waiting after a disappointing start to the year in such matchups at Louisville and in the Champions Classic vs. Michigan State. W...

Vibes couldn’t be higher in Lexington, Kentucky steamrolling Florida in football after steamrolling Valparaiso in basketball — with women’s basketball, volleyball and men’s soccer still to come on this glorious Sunday. It’s a great weekend to be a Wildcat, but for now, we’re going to focus on the fun on the hardwood with Sources Say, recapping that Friday win at Rupp Arena and what it means ahead...

What a start for the Cats, eh? We talked about this team as a legitimate championship contender all offseason, and Kentucky backed up that chatter by mopping the floor with No. 1 Purdue in the exhibition opener. It didn’t count for anything, but as far as measuring sticks go, they don’t get much better — especially down your All-SEC point guard and a potential top-five draft pick. As dumb Boilerma...

What a time to be alive! It’s No. 9 Kentucky vs. No. 1 Purdue to open the 2025-26 college basketball season inside Rupp Arena and there is truly nothing better. Sources Say is BACK to break down the Cats taking on the Boilermakers in what is certain to be the best exhibition battle of all time. But first, what’s the deal with Jaland Lowe? He went down with a shoulder injury in the Blue-White Game...
