    Thanks Austin. That means a decent chance it will rain all day, or decent chances there won't be rain? We're hoping to hike around the Inks Dam area with my son. But we'll adjust.

    Good morning D-League. Another beautiful day in teh east, though I am stuck at work. Looking to get ahead on a few things. On Thursday, my wife and I are flying to Austin then driving out to the US FIsh and Wildlife site where my son lives and works for a visit. Looking forward to seeing all...

    Adidas is obviously buying Kansas and IU players, where does all this Baylor NIL come from?

    Whoever has been buying Indiana players since the Ronald Reagan era deserves a gigantic refund. No titles in the NCAA or the conference tournament in coming up on 40 years. One trip beyond the Sweet 16 since the year the first Bush left office -- and ZERO attempts past the Sweet 16 in the...

    Johnell Davis twitter buzz

    Can’t believe you didn’t start a new thread for that. Make it an even 10,000.

    Good morning folks. Back from a long hike. Flipped on the TV and it was perfect timing to see the last big shootout scene in Unforgiven —one of the peak moments in the canon of Westerns…”I don’t deserve this. I was building a house.” “Deserve’s got nothing to do with it.” Maybe my favorite...

    Having 2 bigs with British accents is gonna be so awesome.

    I hope some of you aren’t counting your Cornish Game Hens before they hatch.

    Good morning D-League. Back from a 3-mile run. Building back up a bit from my long sabbatical from running after my hip surgery. Nice win for the Reds last night. Good starting outing for Lodolo. Nice clutch relief appearance for Cruz, to strike out two guys in a one-run game, coming in with...

    College basketball should have a draft

    * Every year every player goes into a pool that includes incoming freshmen, foreign players, everyone eligible. * Let schools put in a sealed bid of NIL money to buy draft slots -- no limit on slots you can buy with the 1st pick being worth the most, and so on. * If a school can afford to...

    Good morning folks. Finally lost the good weather in the east for at least a while. Cold, gray and rainy today. I hope the weekend is better. It has been a long week for various reasons. Obviously still lots of periods of sadness over mom. And my dad sounds like he's struggling when I call...

    Travis Perry announcing soon

    I think the scale should be: Reed Sheppard Mississippi State to Reed Sheppard Oakland.

    Barnhart vs Calipari: Failures in Transitional Leadership

    That Mitch is a mediocre dummy is hardly news. You’ve heard of BCG? Of “coach in waiting” Joker Philips? Of the lifetime contract with a $33 million buyout? Compared to his well-established screw-ups failing to reach out to players who were always likely to bolt anyway is like criticizing a...

    Reed Sheppard's Legacy at Kentucky -- I hate to disagree..

    Can’t fault the kid for doing exactly what I would do under the same circumstances, and what I’d tell my son to do. I’ve worked hard for too many years for a lot less than Reed will make in the next 3 years playing basketball to have any illusions about risking that. But he’s no more of a...

    If he comes to UK, he's gotta be "The Blue Mamba."

    Good morning folks. We are really having a run of beautiful weather in the east. I need to have a big day at work. And Mark Pope needs to have a big day recruiting. Let’s hope luck is running for both of us. Have a good day.

    Interesting Day Today?

    Time to pull one of the "VERYs" from "Today will be a VERY, VERY interesting day!!"

    Bigs locked in?

    If true, that must mean Khalifa and I hope Amari Williams from Drexel. That's about as good as you could do in adding two centers, since portal guys generally want some assurance of starting. You can't start nine guys, which is roughly the number of transfers Kentucky needs to pull.

    Cord, I hope that all goes well for Mrs. M, and I'm sorry to hear she is sick. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers directed to my mother and those of us who loved her. And I can extend that to several who have reached out here. I appreciated everyone who mentioned my family in their posts.

    I am predicting……….

    I predict for at least the next three years Kentucky won't lose to a 15 or 13 seed. That will not be possible with Kentucky being a 10 or 9 seed.

    Good morning folks. Another beautiful spring day in the east. Why can’t they all be clear and sunny and cool. Settling back in to work. Another trip next week, to see my son in Texas, so I need to stay ahead of things. I like the kid Pope picked up yesterday. Watched some video. He’s a...
