- Kenny Payne was hired in MARCH. It's not as if he took over this roster two weeks from the season opener. How did he whiff on so many guards in the portal, let alone late-blooming HS kids? I realize he inherited a mess, but the fact that he didn't go out and get SOMEBODY, when he had all Spring/Summer to do it, is pretty inexcusable.
- And that sequence in today's game where Huntley-Hatfield missed the layup at one end, then he, James, and a third kid jogged back up the court while Tech quickly advanced the ball back the other way and scored on a layup, shows that this bunch is already in danger of having checked out. Nightmare.
- Turkey etouffee from Bourbon n' Toulouse tomorrow night for dinner. Has become a Thanksgiving Eve tradition in our house. Unreal stuff.
- Can't wait for the coaching carousel to spin into high gear as soon as the Egg Bowl ends. Feels like at least one job will open up somewhat unexpectedly. My hunch at the moment is that Stanford finds a way to move on from David Shaw. That program has NO juice right now.
- Growing up, there wasn't a cooler Kentuckian than John Y. Brown. The guy just had it all.
