Wasn't quite sure where to post this but this seems as good a place as any.
It's not directly related to the current MBB program, but I happened across this article on UK's approach to dealing with the changing collegiate athletics landscape (eschewing naming a single GM and instead implementing a management team approach) with mention of our own Nick Robinson. I didn't know Nick was at UK before this, since I hadn't watched any UK or BYU MBB games recently, but HC Mark Pope brought Nick along from BYU to be his director of MBB operations when he took the reins at UK in 2024. Nick's role on the mgmt team is as "salary cap strategy and management specialist".
Not too shabby for a small-town kid who grows up to hit an improbable, off-balance 35' runner at the buzzer against the hated 12th-ranked Mildcats thereby preserving the Cardinal's #1 ranking at the time :-)
