The Winning Tradition: A History of Kentucky Wildcat Basketball

In its 95-year history, the Kentucky Wildcats have won more games than any other college basketball team. When The Winning Tradition first appeared in 1984, it was the first complete history of the Wildcat basketball program. This new and expanded edition of The Winning Tradition brings the history of Kentucky basketball up to date. Nelli and his son Steve turn the same unflinching gaze that characterized the honesty of the first edition on the scandals that marred Eddie Sutton's tenure, the return to glory under Rick Pitino, and a full accounting of Tubby Smith's history-making first year.
