You likely noticed during Saturday’s game at Rupp Arena that Jay Bilas did his “94 Feet” segment with a Kansas player instead of a Kentucky player.
Many UK fans were upset with Bilas’ decision to feature a player from the other team.
He gave an explanation on Twitter:
UK does not practice in Rupp on Fiday or Saturday. All of our staff and stuff is at the arena due to GameDay. That’s the only reason. Just logistics.

We do it all the time, in every arena. Nobody is dropping the segment. We’ve had opposing players at Cameron, the Phog, the Dean Dome, and Rupp.

Are you buying what Bilas is selling?
Personally, I think if Bilas wanted a Kentucky player, he could make arrangements to get a Kentucky player.
