Hi I'm thinking about going to University of Kentucky because of a college basketball scholarship. What school did you go to?
I went to the University of Central Florida in Orlando. It is a very big school. Kentucky always has a great basketball team!
I know of at least one famous player - turned politician - from Kentucky basketball, Richie Farmer. Does your university have any well-known players?
The most famous I know is Michael Jordan's son played there. I think his name was Marcus. We won the NIT tournament a couple years ago.
Cool. And what's your university's team called? Is it the Knights? Kentucky's is the Wildcats.
Yes, we used to be called the Golden Knights but dropped the Golden a while ago. Now the Golden Knights are a hockey team!

Anderson County High School (Kentucky)

The school has long been known for its basketball program, from which many athletes have gone on to college and, in at least one case, into the NBA.
