Arizona basketball coach Sean Miller's first recruiting class is already getting raves. Adding McDonald's All-American Lance Stephenson would make the class one of the best in the nation. It's unclear how interested Arizona is in getting Stephenson, a shooting guard/small forward who is rated the No. 8 player overall for the 2009-10 class by Scout.com. Fox Sports, citing unnamed sources, says Arizona likely won't "make a move on the talented, yet enigmatic wing player" from Coney Island, N.Y. UA is concerned with the player's off-the-court issues, Fox said. But the New York Daily News, also citing an unnamed source, says Arizona is making "a big-time push" for the 6-foot-5 Stephenson, who passed NBA player Sebastian Telfair as the leading scorer in New York schoolboy history. One thing working in UA's favor: new assistant coach Emanual "Book" Richardson has strong New York City ties and has coached Stephenson before.

I think he has some sort of battery-operated device in his underpants that my need warrant work.

He's putting on his kung fu face - preparing for his legendary karate chop (last week's FN picture).

Who knows at this point? The late signing day period is coming to an end soon, so a decision has to come at some point.

Wherever he goes I wish him good luck.

The pictures are revolting, but I enjoyed the contemporary articles and the cutting edge journalism.

I just did not know what "Electric Ben Wa Balls" were and had no desire to find out - even though the special looked enticing.

This could be a home safety reminder about the hazards of storing batteries next to suppositories.

Just because the signing period is due pretty soon doesn't mean squat. He can hold off on a committment as late as August if he wants.

Didn't know he could go past the 20th. Fine. I guess this thing goes on for a while longer then.
