Some really good stories out there today with football, Big Blue Madness and basketball season approaching. I’ll post some of the best below:

– Aaron Smith from the Kentucky Kernel has a really good story on Mark Krebs’ new book. Krebs’ book, “Beyond a Dream,” was released Friday.

– Jerry Tipton of the Lexington Herald-Leader reports that “Wildcat Wally” is missing this year’s Big Blue Madness campout.

– Tipton also writes that John Calipari downplays — yet welcomes — high expectations.

– His colleague, Chip Cosby, on Ole Miss’ elusive Jeremiah Masoli.

– Brett Dawson from the Courier-Journal writes that Brandon Knight is the men’s basketball team’s workhorse.

– Larry Vaught of the Danville Advocate-Messenger reports that Enes Kanter’s time in Lexington has been “amazing.”

– Matt May from The Cats’ Pause writes that picking UK was Terrence Jones’ choice, not others.

– Kent Spencer of WTVQ has some great video of the other side of Kanter.
