He arrived at 3 a.m. EST after a malfunction on his plane, then the battery died on his rental car. I'm glad I made it somehow. Carter, who left school after his junior season, said he will graduate on Dec. 20. I'm doing that for me. I'm not doing it to get the praise from the media, family or friends.

We tried to wear them down a little bit and I think we did. Marquis Estill led the way with 19 points and 11 rebounds off the bench, while starters Keith Bogans added 18 and Tayshaun Prince 15.

Bogans made two 3-pointers and Saul Smith one during Kentucky's clinching run.
