Prior to last season's 9-16 calamity in a pandemic-shortened season, Kentucky averaged 30 wins per year in its first 11 seasons under John Calipari. The worst season in the stretch was a 21-12 finish in the 2012-13 season marked by UK's only absence from the NCAA Tournament under Calipari until last season.
What followed was a season of extremes. On the heels of the disappointing season, the 2013-14 team also struggled by Kentucky's standards under Calipari by securing just a No. 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament. But after entering the Big Dance with 10 losses on their ledger, the Wildcats got hot at the right time and made a run to the national title game. Once there, Kentucky lost to UConn, but the deep postseason run solidified that the Wildcats weren't going anywhere, even after a couple of relatively tough seasons.
As Kentucky looks to rebound again in the 2021-22 season from a new low under Calipari, can the Wildcats bounce back again? With the program's roster for next season coming into focus following the recent additions of transfers Sahvir Wheeler and CJ Frederick along with the signing of five-star freshman guard TyTy Washington, it's a good time to start predicting what this team may accomplish next season.
