Kentucky held practice No. 4 of fall camp on Saturday morning but this one had a twist. Before scrimmages begin next weekend, head coach Mark Stoops opened the gates to the practice fields next to the Joe Craft Football Training Facility and let the Big Blue Nation in.
Fans got some great weather as Kentucky’s football team got after it in a two-hour practice. Some young players on offense shined and the defense looks very good. KSR was out at that event and has some photos to share.

Who will start for Kentucky basketball during the 2024-25 season?

Kentucky’s 2024-25 Kentucky basketball team has a very big problem. They have a ton of great players, but according to basketball rules, only five can be on the floor at one time.
All kidding aside, Kentucky’s team is deep, which is excellent, but this means it will be very hard for Mark Pope to pick his starting five.
Predicting the starting five feels pretty easy at the moment, but things could change between today and the first game of the season. If everything goes chalk for the Wildcats, Lamont Butler will start at point guard, Jaxson Robinson will play shooting guard, Koby Brea will be the wing, Andrew Carr will start at power forward, and Amari Williams will play the center position.
Many believe this is how the starting lineup will look for the Wildcats, but two players who could make a push to start will be Otega Oweh and Brandon Garrison.
Both of these two players are turning heads in the offseason, and if they played at some other schools, even in the SEC, they would be starters.
Players like Kerr Kriisa, Ansley Almonor, Collin Chandler, and Travis Perry will all likely get some minutes off the bench, but where it sits currently without an injury, it would be hard to see a world where one of these players starts.
Coach Pope has a lot of options, but it looks like a starting lineup of Butler, Robinson, Brea, Carr, and Williams will be what Coach Pope will roll out for the first game of the season.

Kentucky men’s basketball to hold open tryout
![Kentucky men’s basketball to hold open tryout Kentucky men’s basketball to hold open tryout](https://a1.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2024%2F0803%2Fr1367613_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg)
Kentucky men’s basketball coach Mark Pope announced Friday that the program will host an open tryout later this month for potential walk-ons for the 2024-25 season.
The Wildcats, a preseason top-25 team, are asking interested players to submit their height, weight, position and contact information for their high school basketball coach.
The tryout is open to all academically eligible, full-time Kentucky students. According to the announcement, the team will narrow its list of potential walk-ons and invite preferred candidates to the tryout Aug. 30.
Though an open tryout is rare for a blue-blood college basketball program, Kentucky is not the first to hold one.
Just last year, Louisville coach Kenny Payne held such a tryout and asked the public to send walk-ons “our way” because the team was desperate to add more talent during a challenging season.
In women’s basketball, TCU was forced to add four walk-ons last season through an open tryout after multiple players were sidelined with injuries.
To be clear, Kentucky is not in such a situation.
The Wildcats will be led by transfers Jaxson Robinson and Lamont Butler, along with a collection of talent that Pope — who as a player helped Kentucky win a national title in 1996 — has assembled for his first year coaching in Lexington.
