Kentucky Passion

"Well-researched and beautifully written, this is more than a must-read book for die-hard fans of Kentucky Basketball; it serves as a fabulous witness to overcoming life's many challenges. Kentucky Passion is a wonderful testimony to the power of a grateful Big Blue Nation."—Oscar Combs, The Cats' Pause founder and member of Kentucky Journalism Hall of Fame

"Kentucky Passion is a Kentucky basketball time machine of the epic moments, victories, and defeats we all experienced together. John experienced many of these defining moments in real time as a diehard fan and brings them to life with his historical research and first-hand accounts. Kentucky Passion reminds me of why I grew up dreaming of one day being a Kentucky Wildcat."—Roger Harden, University of Kentucky men's basketball team, 1982 – 1986.

"Kentucky Passion makes it fun to apply great moments in UK Basketball history to our everyday lives, and how we can use these moments to help us all grow. This is a wonderful way to learn and share ideas with your friends and family."—Alan Cutler, legendary sports anchor and reporter

"I've read a lot of books about sports over the years and am thrilled to recommendKentucky Passion: Wildcat Wisdom and Inspiration to anyone who loves Kentucky, all sports fans, or anyone prepared for a book that will challenge you in a practical way. What makes Del Duduit and Dr. John Huang's work so unique is it really brings sports back home and centers them in a place that has relevance to who we are and want to be. In our overly active lives it's easy to lose sight of what really matters and this book is all about that."—Justin Rowland, publisher of Cats Illustrated
