It's title or bust for Big Blue Nation

When Kentucky won the national championship in 1996, Alexander Wolff began his Sports Illustrated cover story this way: "They scarcely celebrate their national championships at Kentucky. They revive them, yes, and cherish them, most certainly. But celebration comes reluctantly to the people of the Commonwealth, who so surely expect NCAA titles." Wolff is in the basketball Hall of Fame, but that paragraph never rang true to me. I stood among some 10,000 screaming, dancing people at the intersection of Euclid and Woodland avenues in Lexington both when the Wildcats beat UMass in the semifinal that year and again when they won it all against Syracuse.
