Around this time on Friday, the national champion Kentucky Wildcats will be getting ready to board a plan to Washington, D.C., to take President Barack Obama up on his offer to visit the White House. You won’t be able to get a spot on the trip, but you will be able to follow along live.ESPNU will be covering live UK’s tour of the White House and meeting with the Commander-in-Chief. Andy Katz will be with the team in D.C. for the SportsCenterU Special: Kentucky at the White House, which begins at 5 p.m. on Friday. It will be simulcast on ESPN3 at this link. Additionally, ESPNU will show a half-hour special, All Access: Kentucky at the White House next week, with the first episode airing on Friday, May 11, at 11:30 p.m.I’m also happy to report that Cat Scratches as well as Eric Lindsey of CoachCal.com will be making the trip with the team. It’s certainly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, but more importantly for you, we will be providing joint coverage of the event similar to what we did throughout the postseason. We will have Twitter updates, stories, video and a photo gallery from the White House visit, so stay tuned for that on Friday.
