Needing wins to improve on its postseason standing, UK baseball lost the first two games at Missouri in its final series of the regular season before taking the series finale on Saturday at Taylor Stadium in Columbia, Mo.
Junior left-handed pitcher Corey Littrell threw seven innings in the final game of the series, allowing a run on six hits while striking out seven.
Littrell was given the lead by a UK offense that collected 13 hits. An RBI-single by senior catcher Micheal Thomas in the sixth inning gave the Cats a 2-1 lead. Freshman

Kentucky Football: A Brief History of the Tony Franklin/Neal Brown Version of the Air Raid Offense

The Air Raid was developed primarily by Hal Mumme, his offensive coordinator, Mike Leach, and Dana Holgorson (QB Coach) at Valdosta State.
The Air Raid was something new and unique at the time at the Division I level. It was an immediate success in 1997 and 1998. The problem with Kentucky's Air Raid wasn't the offense, but Mumme's disdain for defense. That only goes so far in the defensive minded SEC.
When Leach left for Oklahoma to become Offensive Coordinator in 1999, he was replaced by running backs coach Tony Franklin. Franklin was the offensive coordinator until Mumme was fired two years later in 2000.
Most of us know about Leach's career at Texas Tech and now Washington State. One common misconception,

Also, a couple of administrative notes:
SB Nation has fixed the hardware problems responsible for all the errors we have been experiencing over most of the last week. Performance should return to normal very quickly.
I will be on a golf holiday from Sunday until Wednesday, so the quickies are probably on hiatus until midweek. I'll try to post a morning open thread for the news, at minimum, but no promises.

Kobie Walker's "only" a 3 star recruit. This comment has been both written and said. The fact is, for Kentucky, his commitment is a big deal; a very big deal. Here's four reasons why.
Walker's commitment placed UK 7th in the SEC in recruiting and 15th nationally. Nine SEC teams are ranked in the top 20. Our average star rating is 3.43 which ranks 9th in the conference. Another 4 star will put us back to an average of 3.50. If Louisville were in the SEC, they would rank 13th with their 3.08 average star rating.
Louisville's national team rank of 8th is based on the number of commitments (13) and not the quality. As other teams, such as Alabama, Florida St., Ohio St, Georgia, Clemson and others catch up to their numbers,
