Sophomore UK Hoops forward Samarie Walker has had to sit on the bench as her teammates have raced to a 10-0 start and a top 10 ranking. In January, Walker transferred to Kentucky from Connecticut and has been limited to practicing with her new teammates for the past year due to NCAA transfer rules.Her waiting, though, is almost at an end.The 6-foot-1 forward is expected to be eligible to play her first game as a Wildcat on Sunday at No. 3 Notre Dame. Tipoff is at 1 p.m. and the game will be televised on ESPNU. Needless to say, Walker is excited to hit the floor again.
