Bruiser Flint Connected to Special Moment in UK Basketball History

Bruiser Flint spoke with Kentucky media for the first time Wednesday to discuss joining John Calipari’s staff as an assistant at Kentucky.

Flint, who was an assistant at UMass with Calipari in the 90s’, is tied to a special part of Kentucky basketball history, even though he was on the opposite sideline.

During Calipari’s first season at Kentucky in 2009-10, the Wildcats defeated Drexel for win number 2000 in Kentucky basketball history.

The head coach of the Drexel Dragons at that time was Bruiser Flint, who coached at Drexel from 2001-2016.

Hopefully, Flint will be on the winning end of victories at Rupp Arena this time.
