Nation of Blue was founded in 2009 by Anthony Vicars and Scott Anderson. The idea for the site came from their desire to create a platform that would provide comprehensive coverage of University of Kentucky athletics with a unique approach, adopting the mantra "no homers allowed." This meant they aimed to offer unbiased, objective reporting on Kentucky sports. Scott Zachow later joined as a co-founder and VP of Technology. Today, Nation of Blue continues to be owned and operated by its original founders. Based in Kentucky, Nation of Blue primarily covers University of Kentucky sports, with a strong focus on basketball and football. They also report on recruiting news, professional athletes who previously played for Kentucky, and other Kentucky-based college sports. The site delivers content through articles, videos, and podcasts, reaching a broad audience of Kentucky Wildcats fans across the United States. **One interesting fact**: A unique aspect of Nation of Blue is that one of its founders, Anthony Vicars, goes by the pseudonym "Fake Billy Clyde" when hosting the site's Morning Drive podcast. This playful nod to former Kentucky basketball coach Billy Gillispie adds a touch of humor to their sports coverage.
