Big Blue Madness Spurs Excitement For Upcoming Season

Another Big Blue Madness drew a big blue crowd to Rupp Arena Friday night in anticipation of the upcoming season.

The show started off with an introduction of the women’s team and a much anticipated appearance from Head Coach Matt Mitchell. This season coach focused on the vocals, tuning his inner Bruno Mars to entertain the crowd.

Of course what BBM would be complete without an appearance from Drake? The rap superstar introduced Coach John Calipari to the crowd before Cal literally dropped the mic with an emphatic, "’let’s ball!"

Both men’s and women’s teams started out the practice with a short warm-up before taking part in a five-on-five scrimmage to entertain fans.

Familiar faces like legendary Coach Joe B. Hall and former Cat Eloy Vargas were in attendance. After the men’s scrimmage Coach Cal took over the mic again. He told fans the season is a process and to be patient while he tries something new.

The Cats are back in action Monday the 27th at Rupp Arena. Tip-off for their Blue-White scrimmage is set for 7PM. You can watch the scrimmage on the SEC Network.
