UK took the field Satur-day for its Homecomingshowdown with the Jack-sonville State Gamecocks at acrossroads in its season. UKwas losers of four straight, in-cluding three straight lossesby a combined 117 points to
open SEC play.But on a picture-perfect
autumn afternoon in front ofCats fans from past and pres-ent, UK found reason to cele-brate by defeating Jack-sonville State 38-14 to im-prove its record to 3-4.
“Our football team ac-cepted the challenge,” UKhead football coach Joker
Phillips said. “They remem-bered what we’d been talkingabout all week, and acceptedthe challenge and put thisteam away.”
The UK defense was ontop of its game, putting con-stant pressure on JSU at theline of scrimmage and wreak-ing havoc in the Gamecocks’backfield. With both offenses
trading punts early, UK juniorsafety Martavius Nelomstook matters into his ownhands by exploding into thepocket, sacking JSU quarter-back Coty Blanchard andforcing a fumble that Nelomswould recover himself andrun back for the game’s open-ing touchdown. UK did not

New outletsto watch TV
With changing technolo-gy, students have found newoutlets to view their favoritetelevision shows.
The birth of websites likeHulu, Netflix and YouTubehas many students aroundcampus accessing their fa-vorite programs that theycannot catch on regular tele-vision.
Sophomore NicholeNicholson said she has cablein her dorm, “but I still like towatch some old shows thatare not shown on TV,” shesaid. “That’s why I choseNetflix.”
Nicholson lives in thedorms, so she she doesn’t payattention to the cost of cable,she said.
“I just watch whatever ison my TV,” she said.
Insight Cable is the cablenetwork used for the dormson campus and also for mostoff-campus housing.
To many, this option forviewing television is just
included in monthly rent,such as at NewtownCrossing, or in semester fees,like the dorms.
Though students maylook to Hulu or Netflix forconvenience, Insight Cable’ssales have remained the samein the Lexington area.
“Sales are pretty close towhat they have been over thepast couple of years,” StevenJatzek, a sales support repre-sentative for the cable com-pany, said.
Most cable sales involvejust the basics.
“A lot of Lexington cus-tomers seem to choose thebasic package of 125 chan-nels for $60 per month. Notmany choose to upgrade to apremium package,” Jatzeksaid.
Some students have takena different route to view theirfavorite shows.
“I decided to just watcheverything online this year,”sophomore Justin Sharp said.“I got a Hulu account andonly pay $8 a month and can

Two gubernatorial candidates at-tended Sunday night’s debate, spon-sored by Student Government’s WildcatInterest Group.
Incumbent Gov. Steve Beshear didnot attend the event due to a schedulingconflict.
“We thank our governor SteveBeshear also for showing up tonight aswell,” Independent candidate GatewoodGalbraith said sarcastically to start offthe discussion.
UK students and members of the
public emailed ques-tions to UK StudentGovernment, tweetedthem online or askedquestions during thediscussion.
Education in Ken-tucky was the majortopic of the debate.
David Williams, thecurrent state Senate president, started thediscussion by talking about the students.
“I’ve tried to talk about the students’future and the future of Kentucky,”Williams said. “I believe campaignsought to be about having an open dia-
logue.”One question ad-
dressed making a deci-sion about moderatingtuition if either of thecandidates were elect-ed governor and dis-cussed the possibilityof a tuition freeze.
Galbraith pointedout the state needs to be more transpar-ent, and also addressed the state’s finan-cial woes.
“The state of Kentucky is $38 billionin debt,” he said.

Lexington and the surrounding areashave been making substantial efforts toreach out to refugees and help themassimilate into local culture.
Currently more than 13 million peo-ple in Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somaliaand Uganda are in need of emergency as-
sistance, according to an article by an or-ganization aiming to raise awarenessabout the Social Economics of Poverty.
The Kentucky Refugee Ministries isone such organization that helpsrefugees and their families settle intotheir new environment.
The organization was originally es-tablished 21 years ago in Louisville, Ky.,with an extension built locally in 1998.
“We provide resettlement servicesfor refugees that come to Lexington,”Dabney Parker, the local resource coor-dinator, said.
The main refugee populations whocome to Lexington are individuals fromthe Democratic Republic of the Congo,Iraq and Botanize.
All of these people have faced seri-ous hardships and challenges from theiroriginal countries and have been accept-ed as U.S. citizens.

TOKYO — Olympus Corp. and a non-profit organization have jointly developedspecial eyeglasses that project subtitles onthe lenses so the hearing impaired can enjoyJapanese movies.
A type of head-mounted display (HMD),the glasses will be unveiled at the Tokyo Inter-national Film Festival that runs through Oct. 30.
The device was developed by the Tokyo-based precision equipment maker and thenon-profit Media Access Support Center,based in Kawaguchi, Saitama Prefecture.
MASC has been working to provide betteraccess to information for people with hearingdifficulties by promoting captions for filmsand DVDs, and is providing captions from itsWeb site through the iPhone to the device.
According to MASC, subtitles for thehearing impaired need to include not only di-alog but also information on who is going tospeak before actors deliver their lines. It alsoneeds to explain to viewers about footsteps,honking horns and other sound effects.
As it costs at least 1 million yen per filmto print these subtitles, few films providethem. Only 51 of 408 new releases in 2010had the special subtitles.
Theaters showing these films are alsolimited, especially in rural areas. Since thesubtitles may annoy non-impaired viewers,the films are generally shown only for abouttwo days even in metropolitan areas.
Mitsuhiko Ogawa, 49, vice director ofTokyoto Chuto Shiccho Nanchosha Kyokai,an association for people with hearing dis-abilities, said films give people with hearingproblems an important opportunity to relateto other people and society. “It would begreat if we were able to go see a movie withanybody, anytime, anywhere,” Ogawa said.
Even if the HMD comes into wide use,however, scripts for subtitles still have to bemade for each film. MASC director KojiKawano, 48, said making HMD subtitlescosts less than one-fifth of usual subtitles asthe HMD subtitles do not have to be printedon film. “The problem is who bears thecost,” he said.
Kawano stressed films with HMD subti-tles will also be good for seniors with hearingdifficulties. He said demand could be in-creased by expanding the HMD’s functions toallow the use of foreign-language subtitles.

relinquish the lead for the re-mainder of the game.
“It was a big play for mein my career,” Neloms said.“My (defensive backs), theycovered long enough to makethe quarterback hold the ballso I was able to get in thereand make a play. The ball justbounced my way on that playand I was able to make aplay.”
The offense, whosestruggles have been wellchronicled, was hitting on allcylinders against an over-matched Gamecocks de-fense. The Cats put 38 pointson the board against JSU, aseason high, on 445 yards oftotal offense.
UK found most of its suc-cess on offense in its runninggame. Junior running backCoShik Williams establishedthe Cats’ deadliest rushing at-tack so far this season.Williams would finish with22 carries for 148 yards —his first career 100-yard rush-ing performance.
“He’s got great speed,”UK running game coordina-tor Mike Summers said ofWilliams. “If we can get himsome space then he can usehis speed. It was good to seehim with some space.”
The Cats’ offensive lineallowed UK to run the ballwith ease no matter who waslined up in the backfield. OfUK’s 445 total yards, 340 ofthem came on the ground, aseason high for the offense.
“(The offensive line)showed up real good today,”Williams said. “I think our of-fensive line came together asa group and they pinned uptheir blocks, they run blockedgood, they pass blockedgood, and after every play Ireally tried to congratulatethose guys.”
Junior quarterback Mor-gan Newton, who has beenbenched three times this sea-
son, was 10-for-16 for 105yards, two touchdowns andno interceptions. Junior widereceiver La’Rod King was abig part of Newton’s success,with five catches for 84 yardsand two touchdowns.
“He’s our quarterback, soI’m never going to turn myback on my quarterback nomatter what,” King said.“We’re going through adownfall, or we had been, butyou have to keep pushing andthat’s why we get better.”
King’s big day was madeeven bigger when he becamethe 22nd receiver in schoolhistory to attain 1,000 careerreceiving yards.
“It was good to seeLa’Rod go and attack thefootball aggressively,”Phillips said. “He’s a basket-ball player, and he’s got to goget a rebound. ... We arethrowing the ball up and goand attack the ball and get arebound for us.”
Gamecocks’ running backWashaun Ealey, who ran formore than 150 yards and fivetouchdowns in Common-wealth Stadium last year as aGeorgia Bulldog, had a rela-tively quiet performance de-spite some impressive num-bers on the ground. Ealey car-ried the ball 16 times for 120yards but scored no touch-downs.
UK’s defense won theturnover battle for the game,forcing three turnovers thatall would lead to points forthe Cats.
The defense was onceagain led by seniors DannyTrevathan and Winston Guy,who remain the top two tack-
lers in the SEC on the season.Guy led the team with 12tackles en route to overtakingTrevathan for most tackles inthe SEC. Trevathan had fivetackles of his own andrecorded his first interceptionof the season on the last playof the third quarter.
Joining Williams andNeloms on the list of surprisebreakout players was sopho-more linebacker AveryWilliamson, whose seventackles were a career high.
“I knew I was going toget a lot of reps already, and Ijust had to take advantage ofit,” Williamson said. “Overthe season, I just kept on im-proving. I’m getting to theball better and just beingmore of a playmaker.”
UK will close the seasonwith five SEC games, startingwith Mississippi State on Sat-urday. After going 3-1 in non-conference play, UK needs towin three of those five con-ference games to be eligiblefor a bowl.
“There was some im-provement,” Phillips said,“but we’ve got to improveeven more next week.”

still watch mostly everything Iused to for less than half thecost of cable,” Sharp said.
However, these sites docome with setbacks.
Netflix has recentlychanged its options for cus-tomers. The company separatedits two options of online stream-ing and DVD delivery. Now, itis $7.99 per month for strictlyonline streaming and an addi-tional $7.99 per month for theDVD option along with thestreaming.
“I was really upset with thechange,” junior Stacie Ball, aNetflix user, said.
Others did not like thechange as well, and switchedservices.
“I used to use Netflix all thetime, but now I just startedusing Hulu,” Sharp said. “Theyare cheaper and easier to dealwith.”
Hulu Plus is $7.99 a monthfor online streaming.
Purchasing cable is general-ly more for off-campus studentswho need an internet connec-tion. Some college studentswho are on different timeschedules or move around a lot,some agree that online servicesare more convenient.
“Watching TV online justmakes it so much easier,” Ballsaid. “I can watch what I want,when I want.”
Students are now weighingall their different options toview their favorite shows. TVwill always be around; it is justa matter of how it will bewatched.

partment,” Saracoglu said. “And in thebroader perspective, perhaps establishsister schools within Turkey to encouragemore diplomacy between our two coun-tries, as well as generate more attentionfor international cultures on campus.”
The Turkish Student Association isan organization designed to share Turkishculture with other non-Turkish students,according to TSA President Ali SadiTurabi.
Turabi is hopeful that the class will bea success, and will encourage others to getinvolved in activities with the association.
Haluk Karaca, the association’s fac-ulty adviser, said the new languagecourse is a great opportunity to learn anew language while simultaneously im-proving one’s portfolio.
“Turkey is a developing country thatis very important globally, with many op-
portunities in the growing business sec-tor.” Karaca said.
Saracoglu said he has noticed an im-mediate response to the class, and thatthe feedback so far has been very posi-tive.
The class already has 25 students reg-istered.
“We would love for more students tosign up,” Saracoglu said, “and if there areenough students, we may form anotherclass at a different time.”
The Turkish language is one of the top10 spoken languages in the world and isone of 13 languages listed under theCritical Language Scholarship program ofthe U.S. Department of State, according

Although Lexington wel-comes refugees, “85 percentof all refugees arriving inKentucky are resettled inMetro Louisville,” accordingto the Arcadia CommunityCenter website.
In the 2007-08 year, theKentucky Refugee Ministriesresettled approximately 1,241refugees into the Louisvillearea, according to the ArcadiaCommunity Center website.
Lexington’s refugee popu-lation continues to grow. In2009, Kentucky Refugee Min-istries assisted 189 people,and in 2010 it assisted 283 in-dividuals, Parker said.
“The U.S. was built onrefugees coming here and so itis a part of our fabric asAmericans to welcome them,”Parker said. “It is a coura-geous thing that they do toleave everything behind andstart again. It’s a wonderfulexperience when you meetthese folks and realize thatthey’re ready to start again.”
REFUGEESContinued from page 1
The candidates said they wouldwork with President Eli Capilouto tocontinue to work on the Top 20 plan.
“I am glad to work with any uni-versity president, and I wish the bestof luck to him,” Williams said.
Williams said his platform hasstrong beliefs about properly fundingKentucky’s colleges and universitiesthrough the Brains for Bucks initiative.
“It gives us the opportunity to at-tract better faculty through researchfunding, and faculty are the most im-
portant part in the college experi-ence,” he said.
Galbraith stressed to the UK stu-dents at the debate that they must bewatchdogs of state government actions.
“You have to be self-sufficient,”Galbraith said. “You cannot alwaystrust the government’s decisions.”
The candidates also addressedquestions concerning the state budget.
“I think that we should live with-in our means,” Williams said. “Thisgovernor is not being completelyhonest with the people.”
Williams also challengedBeshear’s beliefs about expandinggambling in the state.
“We have a luke-warm governor,and he needs to present his stance be-fore the election,” he said.
Both Galbraith and Williamsagreed that Kentucky needs tochange its tax code.
“We have to change our taxstructure to one that will reward pro-ductivity,” Williams said.
Galbraith said it’s time Kentuckyhas a new outlook on the budget.
“I have the outlook of the found-ing fathers – to do what’s best to pro-tect the rights of the people,” Gal-braith said.
In their closing remarks, each ofthe governor hopefuls stressed the
need for change.“I’m a perennial candidate be-
cause Kentucky has perennial prob-lems,” Galbraith said. “I don’t carewhich party gets the credit for suc-cess. I would like to see both partiesfreed up from the politics they’vegotten themselves in. I want to workto best protect the rights of the peopleof Kentucky.”
Said Williams, “I can bring theparties together. I can more impor-tantly bring the people together. It’sabout being constructive and buildingfrom the bottom up, not tearing peo-ple down. We’ve got to have somechange.”

This increase in the number of accusationsmade against UK faculty, staff and students mirrorsthe increase in pending legal proceedings across thecountry against copyright violators.
In other words, outfits like the Recording Indus-try Association of America, the Motion Picture As-sociation of America and the Entertainment Soft-ware Association are getting serious about crackingdown on illegal file sharing, which they refer to aspiracy.
When the RIAA, the MPAA or the ESA suesstudents, the average settlement is around $3,000 —
and that does not include the cost of hiring an attor-ney. So, with the plethora of legal streaming mediaand legal music downloading sites available thesedays, it just does not make sense (or cents) to do itillegally and take the risk of getting caught.
Advice: Buy the song. Buy the movie. Buy thegame. Illegal file sharing is like speeding: after youget caught, you realize it wasn’t worth it.
If you do use file-sharing programs like Ares,Kazaa, Morpheus, FrostWire, eDonkey or Bear-share (for legal purposes), follow these tips:
Tip 1: Do not keep any of your files, music,movies or games in the program’s default sharingfolder. If you do, Courts may assume you have ei-ther downloaded the files or are offering the filesfor uploading by others.
Tip 2: Set the number of uploads (or slots) al-lowed to zero. This should prevent others from tak-ing files from you (also, see Tip No. 1).
Tip 3: Make sure you have anti-malware soft-ware running on your computer (and smart phone)and that you keep it up-to-date. Many illegal down-loads come with malware that can really hose upyour system.
Tip 4: Better yet, disable file sharing altogether.Search for “EDUCAUSE Legal Sources of OnlineContent” to learn more about where and how to getmusic legally. Also checkout smartphone apps likePandora, Slacker and Effin Genius.

“Students will be interestedin seeing his work because archi-tecture is entering into the digitalworld and he is still into hands-on creative art-making,” saidShannon Ruhl, a junior architec-ture student and organizer of theevent.
Ruhl, also the director of
SAB’s Cultural Arts committee,said O’Bryan is always produc-ing new things.
“We asked Mark [O’Bryan]because we looked into his workand I had him as a professor,”Ruhl said. “He produces reallybeautiful work; high qualitywork.”
Cultural Arts committee
chair Leslie Foster said that stu-dent and professor exhibits havedone well at UK.

College is a place where studentscan encounter beliefs, cultures, racesand religions different from their own.The Student Activities Board will bepresenting a Religion Panel on Mon-day to show students “We all believe,we just do it differently,” Sarah Jones,director of SAB’s Engaging Issuescommittee, said.
Jones said the aim of this programis to “expose students to all the differ-ent worldviews that exist” so that theymay “learn how other religions aredifferent from their own.”
Six belief systems or “world-views,” as Jones refers to them, willbe represented at the panel: Christi-anity, Islam, Buddhism, Deism, Athe-ism and Judaism.
Adam Blincoe, a Ph.D student inthe department of philosophy and theChristianity panelist for Monday,said the metanarrative in whichChristianity is grounded is based onthe Holy Trinity, love and their sav-ior Jesus Christ.
“The eternal community of Fa-ther, Son and Holy Spirit created thecosmos out of an overflow of love,but through a free act, humanity felland sent creation into disarray,” Blin-coe said. “Since then God has soughtto put things right and this effort cli-maxed in the life, death and resurrec-tion of Jesus Christ.”
Blincoe said Christians are thepeople who claim God’s forgiveness,
appropriate his grace in works of loveand look forward to the resurrectionof all of creation.
Atheism, another worldview thatwill be represented on the panel, is aseemingly controversial belief systemfor those who don’t take the time toget a better understanding, which isexactly what Ben Augustine – presi-dent of the newly formed UK SecularStudent Alliance – hopes studentswalk away with.
“One of the misconceptions is thatatheism is claiming that they haveknowledge that there are no supernatu-ral beings,” Augustine said. “Funda-mentally, all atheism is, is a lack of be-lief. Most of us will say that we don’twant to believe in some-thing without positiveevidence, and basical-ly we don’t see thatevidence for the su-pernatural beings thatmost religions pro-pose.”
Augustine saidthe SSA wanted to bea part of the panel topromote a better un-derstanding of whatatheism is and eliminate any negativemisconceptions.
“We don’t want to convert any-one, but just mainly we want to be apart of the discussion,” he said.
Another misconception is thatatheists are “just out to bash other re-ligions” because people take it per-sonally when you question their be-
liefs, Augustine said.“We don’t see this as a confronta-
tional type of event,” he said. “Wejust think this is a good opportunity tohave a reasonable discussion aboutthese issues and we’re looking for-ward to it.”
Jones said the panel will consistof three segments. Each panelist willbegin with a one- to two-minute intro-duction to their worldview and its ma-jor tenets.
Secondly, the panelists will addressdifferent topics that students picked ina SAB survey at the beginning of thesemester. The survey asked studentswhat they wanted to see and hear fromthe different SAB committees, Jones
said. Topics studentschose include every-day life and religion,LGBT, coexistence,the afterlife and rele-vance of religionamong others.
The panel willconclude with anopen Q&A.
“(The panel) is re-ally important because
it really showcases thediversity of students on campus andwhat they believe,” Jones said. “Reli-gion is a topic all college students en-counter at some point in their collegecareer. This is our main reason for hav-ing the event in the first place … tominister to that need, and that topic,when it comes up for college students.”

It was Homecoming forUK on Saturday against Jack-sonville State, a day in whichthe team is supposed to repre-sent its school and everyonegoes home happy to cele-brate.
When entering the stadi-um, I was skeptical abouthow the offense would play,as they were reeling follow-ing a four-game losingstreak.
The offense performed upto expectation for the first
time this season, but that’swhat they were supposed todo against an Ohio ValleyConference team.
But the main takeawaywas the defense’s play.
The fate of the seasonrested on their shoul-ders against a Jack-sonville State teamthat may be theequivalent ofa Cinderellad u r i n gMarch Mad-ness with theirSEC transfers andsuccess against D-I foes.
Co-defensive coordinatorRick Minter’s defense did itwith big hits, interceptions,fumbles, and players notnamed Danny Trevathan or
Winston Guy, such as Mar-tavius Neloms, AveryWilliamson and Luke Mc-Dermott.
The most notable of thesewas junior safety Neloms,
whose sack and recoveryled to him speeding to-
ward a touchdownthat put the Cats up7-0 early in thegame.
One of theCats’ youngest
linebackers wasone of the biggest in-
fluences in the game,as Williamson was just onetackle behind Neloms on thestat sheet with seven on thegame. Play in and play out,he could be found whereverthe ball was.
If Williamson can be-come consistent, he may con-tinue in the footsteps of othergreat UK linebackers fromrecent years.
Senior defensive tackleMcDermott even got in onthe action with an intercep-tion off a tipped pass, andcame just yards shy of gettingsix points.
“When all of our guysplay well as a unit, you seewhat you saw today,” Mintersaid.
Let’s not slight the seniorlinebacker Trevathan or thesenior safety Guy, though, asthey stepped up big in the 38-14 victory.
“Danny and Winston areour heartbeats, we kind of goas they go,” Minter said.
Guy and his dreads’ per-formance on the field canonly be likened to the fierce,destructive movie characterPredator. The senior finishedwith a team-leading 12 totaltackles, 10 of which weresolo, and two pass break-ups.
Although, he did drop aninterception late in the game,leading to a good laugh fromhead coach Joker Phillips.
“We had the defensivelineman catch the ball, Win-ston dropped two intercep-
tions,” Phillips said.The Cats need this same
core of young defensive play-ers to keep bringing it eachweek. It can keep the pres-sure off of Trevathan andGuy, and will put UK in a po-sition to pull out the victoryagainst teams such as OleMiss and Vanderbilt.
For that to happen, the of-fense has to give them help.
I left Commonwealth Sta-dium believing that it maynow be possible.
Full effort from defense bodes well for upcoming gamesCODY

The rosters for Monday’s Big BlueAll Stars vs. Villains game (7:30 p.m.start, Rupp Arena) are replete with formerstars recent and long-gone. Here’s a look
at who made the Vil-lains team — and why.
Shelvin Mack(Butler) / KennethFaried (MoreheadState) — One wasborn in Lexington,ended up going to But-ler and reaching twoNCAA finals. The oth-er went to an in-stateschool, became a re-bounding monster whogarnered national atten-tion and was a Cardinal
Killer in the first round of the 2011NCAA Tournament. They both playedwith the Big Blue All Stars in their exhi-bition tour. These two shouldn't be madeto wear the Villains shirt. Give them ablank penny from the Johnson Center andthank them for providing the extra bodiesneeded to actually have a game. Andhave a rebounding competition betweenCousins and Faried.
Zach Randolph (Michigan State):In 2000-2001, No. 2 Michigan Statebeat UK 46-45 in a December matchup.Randolph, who was a college one-and-done, scored two points and grabbedtwo rebounds. Which, I guess, technical-ly could be considered the difference for
Michigan State. But for the Villainsgame, I'm most interested in seeingRandolph battle Cousins (both of whomwere on "Most Likely To Gain 30Pounds During The Lockout LikeShawn Kemp") down low.
Nolan Smith (Duke) — Did not playUK. But, he was born in Louisville and isthe son of former Louisville player DerekSmith, so he's a villain by birth.
Eric Gordon (Indiana) — Did notplay against UK in his only season incollege. Indiana lost that game 71-50.Now, he's playing (and competing) withEric Bledsoe for a spot and for the titleof Best Eric on the L.A. Clippers.
Tyler Hansbrough (North Carolina)— Did not play in UNC's 77-58 win in2008-09; had 14 points and 11 reboundsin UNC's 86-77 win in 2007-08; had 7points and 3 rebounds in UNC's 75-63win in 2006-07; had 6 points and 10 re-bounds in UNC's 83-79 win in 2005-06.He's also Psycho T.
Corey Brewer (Florida) — The onlySEC Villain, Brewer went 6-1 againstUK and was a key cog for a Florida teamthat briefly eclipsed UK as the class ofthe SEC. Averaged 10.5 points per gameagainst UK in his career.
Rudy Gay (Connecticut) — Scored19 points in a second-round win overUK in the 2006 NCAA Tournament.Any player from a team who ended aUK season is an enemy.
Terrence Williams (Louisville) —
Had 19 points and 8 rebounds in a 74-71 win over UK in 2008-09; had 15points and 6 rebounds in an 89-75 winin 2007-08; had 7 points and 6 reboundsin a 49-61 loss to UK in 2006-07; had 5points in a 61-73 loss to UK in 2005-06.
Christian Laettner (Duke) — TheShot.
Villains run gamut from friends to enemies
Who else would havebeen perfect for this team?1. Joakim Noah, former Florida hate target— The obvious choice, and one organizerJeff Sheppard said he worked hard to in-clude. He would have been perfect, but hemust still be avoiding more UK pom-poms.2. Devan Downey, former South Carolinaguard — the little guy came up big in hand-ing John Calipari's first UK squad its firstloss. On the bright side, the South Carolinastudent government decided to get allCocky and send UK a "we own you" letterthat's impossible to back up.3. Dwyane Wade, former Marquette guard— The biggest season-ender of the lastdecade.4. Kemba Walker, former Connecticut guard— he killed UK at the beginning and end oflast season, and almost single-handedlysaved UConn from UK's Redemption Tour inthe Final Four.5. Joe Mazzulla, former West Virginia guard— Or, a 1-3-1 zone. Either one.
