I don’t know where we’re at, but I know we’re getting better,’’ said the Hall of Fame coach during a wide-ranging interview with NCAA.com at Rupp Arena. “Some of the anxiety of playing college basketball has worn off. But we’re starting five freshmen and eight months ago these guys were playing high school basketball and now they’ve been thrown into this environment.’’

Calipari is leaning on seven freshman and three sophomores among his top healthy 11.

The Wildcats’ only loss was to Kansas in the Champions Classic in Chicago last month. The most notable win came last weekend at home against unranked Virginia Tech. Wins over Vermont, East Tennessee State, Utah Valley, Harvard and even Fort Wayne (see Indiana) aren’t going to move the meter but they all may compete for their respective conference titles.

Still, this was hardly a gauntlet like others have faced. And that’s fine. Kentucky is being built for March, not for December.
