Tonight, a loaded Kentucky Wildcats roster will attempt to take home the school?s first national title since 1998. While this talented crop has been getting it done in Nikes and Jordans, the champs from ?96 put in work wearing Converse. Boasting the likes of Antonie Walker, Ron Mercer, Tony Delk, and Nazr Mohammed, the team was arguably the most talented in college basketball history, producing nine NBA players, a 27-game winning streak, and a remarkable 86-point first half performance. The 95-96 ‘Cats culminated a dream season by snapping an eighteen-year title drought and taking the juice from ?Cuse in their denim dud matching makeups of the R.A.W. Energy and Cons Blue.
