Hank Plona says Julius Thedford is not ruled out for rest of season after injury
SUMMARY: WKU men’s basketball freshman guard Julius Thedford suffered a knee injury during a 71-57 loss to MTSU, dislocating his kneecap and tearing a ligament. Although the injury doesn’t require surgery, it will need rehab. Head coach Hank Plona remains optimistic, stating Thedford could return later this season, though he is expected to miss a couple of weeks. Thedford will miss WKU’s upcoming road games against Louisiana Tech and Sam Houston. He joins Babacar Faye as a player with an uncertain return timeline for the season.

Biden pardon of former Kentucky Dems chair draws Republican ire | Kentucky
SUMMARY: Former Kentucky Democratic Party chairman Jerry Lundergan, convicted in 2019 for illegal campaign contributions and conspiracy, received a controversial pardon from President Joe Biden shortly before Donald Trump’s inauguration. Lundergan, who was sentenced to 21 months in prison for funding his daughter Allison Lundergan Grimes’ 2014 Senate campaign with over $200,000 in corporate funds, had his civil rights restored, including the right to vote. This pardon faced backlash from Kentucky Republicans, as state lawmakers consider measures to limit future gubernatorial pardons during election periods to ensure justice system integrity and transparency.

SUMMARY: A family in Wingfield, Ky., lost their home to a fire on January 21, 2025. Firefighters received a call about the blaze just before 5 a.m., initially reporting it as a chimney fire. Upon arrival, the house was fully engulfed, and family members stated it dated back to the late 1920s or early ’30s. The fire left them with nothing but the clothes they wore, though thankfully, no injuries were reported. Access issues delayed the arrival of multiple fire trucks, with several departments responding. Relief efforts for the affected family are underway; contact Haley Ashley at 270-392-8550 for assistance.
