  • Welcome to the 19nine podcast. In this episode we take another deep dive into Big Blue Nation and University of Kentucky hoops, this time with two-time NCAA champion Cameron Mills.
  • The son of former Kentucky Wildcat Terry Mills, Cameron grew up in Lexington, starring at Dunbar High before shunning D1 scholarship offers and matriculating to Kentucky in 1994 as a walk-on for the Wildcats and head coach Rick Pitino.
  • Today, we’re going to talk with the 6-3 sharpshooter about his journey to Kentucky and the first of his two national championship teams at UK – the loaded 1995-96 squad that featured 9 – that’s right, 9 – NBA players. That dominant Kentucky team went 34-2, culminating with a 9-point win over Syracuse in the title game.
