From working as counselor at Issel-Dampier basketball camp at Centre College July 1978, to Kentucky Book Fair today at Joseph Beth Bookseller in Lexington. 48 years later, Dan Issel is still UK’s all time leading scorer, my childhood hero, and a great guy. Enjoyed our “reunion”!

BTW Doug was kind enough to send me an advance copy. Obviously, two thumbs up.
If you're heading to Rupp Arena stop by the table near section 44 and buy the autobiography of UK's all time leading men's bkb scorer, Dan Issel, written with @dougbrunk

Dan Issel wore No. 44 at Kentucky, and tomorrow he's signing his new book on the Rupp concourse near Section 44 before Texas Tech (5:30, per the publisher). I choose to believe that's on purpose. Tip time and TV are here bluebookhoops.com/game-day/t…
