I think they should keep his seat empty from now on. No one should every sit in that first seat. I know that will be hard with the 30 players we will be dressing next year but I think leaving that seat open would be a great rememrance of Mr. Wildcat and the fact that he can’t be replaced.

A sad day for the entire state. You will be missed. May you now find comfort in the embrace of God.

Bill Keightley was as important to UK Basketball as Joe Nuxall was to the Cincinnati Reds.
God Bless you Bill.

Rest in peace Mr. Keightly. You supported a lot of Kentucky players and coaches, from the stars to benchwarmers, to the practice-only players. You set an example that fans and equipment managers everywhere can only aspire to. You are in big blue heaven now. Say hi to Coach Rupp and Ralph Beard.
