A very blue day for Wildcat fans. 
For those that don't know, he's been our equipment manager for the Kentucky Wildcats since 1962 (yes, you heard right, he was there even when Rupp was coach) and just finished his 48th year on the job. He was on our 1978, 1996, and 1998 championship teams as well. In 1997 he even had a "jersey" retired in his honor. He will be missed greatly.
