It appears Kentucky Basketball won’t be getting a summer foreign tour this year.
On Tuesday, head coach Mark Pope revealed that there will likely be no summer trip for the 2026-27 Wildcats.
“We’re probably a lean towards not going right now,” Pope told Darrell Bird of Cats Pause.
This comes after Pope recently revealed that a trip to Israel fell through, though he said at the time UK was still looking at other options
.The NCAA recently adopted a proposal that will allow schools to take summer tours
every year after the rules previously limited schools to one trip every four years. Even if it ended up being somewhere close by, this would’ve been a great experience for the Cats to get some exhibition games in, especially with the roster overhaul they’re going through.
Oh well. The good news is UK will still have plenty of summer practices to develop and build chemistry.
