The hoops program had one average year last year after looking down the barrel of the NCAA gun (and if any fan knows about looking down the barrel of a NCAA gun, it's Ky). They came close to getting into the tourney last year after making it to 6 straight. I'd say they're above mediocrity over that span. And until last year, your hoops program's last title was the same year as our football title. Not exactly dominance there.
The football program is on an unprecedented run of suckitude worse than mediocrity, but they'll back. How soon, that remains to be seen, but all good programs eventually get back.
