2001/2002 University of Kentucky Men's Basketball Roster Info.

  • J.P. Blevins
    See the Zzzzz's, be the Zzzzz's
    You can make a lot of enemies playing point guard for Kentucky. Just ask the punching bags who've taken on that high-pressured assignment. J.P. Blevins, who aspires to such scrutiny, goes into this season with one group sure to dislike him: insomniacs.
  • Keith Bogans
    Scooby Doo aficionado still just an incurable kid at heart
    You might call it a guilty pleasure, except Keith Bogans does not feel guilty. He freely admits the pleasure he gets from watching Scooby Doo cartoons. ``It's not embarrassing at all,'' he said. ``I don't want to grow up. I'm not in any rush to grow up and get old. I don't want to grow up too fast
  • Jules Camara
    Basketball comes with a beach ball in this African tale
    Jules Camara came to Kentucky from Africa, which conjures up images of jungle safaris, witch doctors and other concoctions from countless Hollywood movies. But if a movie is ever made of Camara's life, the soundtrack should include that most American of musicmakers, the Beach Boys.
  • Josh Carrier
    `Water boy' puts away skis so he can slalom into freshman season
    Here's an image to ponder: One of Kentucky's long-range shooters momentarily skimming the surface of Barren River Lake on a pair of skis. Then, tim-berrr, down he goes like a tree felled in a forest
  • Rashaad Carruth
    Needle him all you like; he has No Fear
    Freshman Rashaad Carruth has yet to play a college game, but he already holds a Kentucky career record. He has not one, not two, not eight, but 10 tattoos. ``That's just my style,'' he said. ``That's what I like to do. I'm not trying to be like Allen Iverson. I just like tattoos.''
  • Adam Chiles
    Dog Pepper offers spice of life for Cat
    Adam Chiles came into his mother's bedroom with a concern. Something was wrong with his dog's leg. ``Can you take Pepper to the doctor?'' he asked. ``Not at 1 a.m.,'' his mother replied, sleepily.
  • Erik Daniels
    Martial arts kick-start a career
    Freshmen are supposed to be mentally overwhelmed and physically underdeveloped. Knee surgery mere days before the opening game should have thrown Erik Daniels further behind. Shouldn't that be helplessly behind
  • Marquis Estill
    Inspiration found in spirit of child
    Marquis Estill has overcome a lot in his Kentucky career. Ineligibility as a freshman. An ill-defined role and inconsistent playing time as a sophomore. The need to lose weight. Chronic soreness in his knees.
  • Gerald Fitch
    Brother still showing the way
    George Fitch
    Jan. 9, 1974 July 3, 1998'' To say George was Gerald's brother is to say an ocean is wet. ``He was like my dad,'' Gerald said. ``We couldn't get any closer. I didn't have a dad around. He was like my dad and my brother.''
  • Cliff Hawkins
    The Golden Girls made for good times for point guard-to-be and his mother
    Cliff Hawkins, a leader of men as a Kentucky point guard, goes heavy on the testosterone when it comes to what he watches on television. ``If I'm not watching SportsCenter,'' he said, ``I'm not watching anything.''
  • Chuck Hayes
    A classic case of love at first drive
    Chuck Hayes brings the American love affair with the car home to Kentucky basketball. Fittingly, it is the older models, the classics that launched the love affair. ``I think they're unique,'' he said. ``They're original. With cars today, they kind of make them the same. But old cars, there is nothing like them.''
  • Matt Heissenbuttel
    Walk-on's love makes him natural in Kentucky
    Kentucky's main man? Tayshaun Prince. Kentucky's mane man? That would be Matt Heissenbuttel. The walk-on guard is carrying on a life-long love affair with horses. If you went to Keeneland this fall or Saratoga this summer, chances are you saw Heissenbuttel.
  • Tayshaun Prince
    Wildcats' Mr. Clutch says Pierce set the standard
    What's the best display of clutch play at crunch time you've ever seen? Most players with Tayshaun Prince's resume would use the first-person pronoun to answer. Prince could say, ``I hit:
  • Cory Sears
    Pride of Corbin aims to make a difference
    Della Moore had lived a good life. Now, at 96, she was in a Corbin hospital. There was nothing more for her doctors to do. What Cory Sears felt or somehow sensed that day you could call a premonition.
  • Marvin Stone
    Stories about father a pleasant reminder
    Marvin Stone did not want to be too obvious. So he gave his father a sly reminder. ``Dad, I've got a baseball game tonight,'' he said. ``Why don't you come watch me?''
