Tell me though. Does anyone really care what Gary Player thinks about anything anymore? Could you just go away and leave us alone for awhile. Nick has earned the right to pick whomever he wants. I think Nick is strong enough to stand up to Mrs. Doubtfire. He would never risk sending anything but the very best players into the Cup. This comes from an American. We look forward to seeing your best here in Louisville

Tressel past followed him to OSU. He's gotten by with murder. If the basketball probation had not have happened, the football program should have been shut down. The NCAA wasn't brave enough to issue two probations and cause the death probation. His really being calm seems to really help in Jan big games. The Big Ten is mixture of great institutions with class. Ohio State's recruit at any price leaves them out of this group. The NCAA will eventually catch up to them and their true colors will be exposed. It's not that Ohio State programs have more to offer, it's just that they don't have a salary cap like most other play for pay teams.

Posted Friday September 05, 2008, About: Pot tied to Penn State players?

They all know the rules. Smoking pot will get you real trouble. I agree that a good percentage have smoked before, but is it worth losing a $100,000 education. Joe Pa has had 42 different players arrested in 5 years. Penn State used to be a clean act, but the numbers say something else. When he was told about these numbers he told ESPN that it was a "witch hunt." He needs to go and get someone who can find players who are proud to play for Penn State.

Tubby can coach and recruit. He has sent seven of his own to the NBA. KY fans just want a title every 5 years. He is the only KY coach except Pitino that didn't have major probations. His shooting from the wing is his best asset not sketchy. He could use some size but he jumps and is very quick. He is a defender because of his desire and will play more than a previous writer said. Even as a good defender, high school players have no idea what defending really is. If he works on defense, he will play a lot early. You have to defend or Tubby won't play you. This is one class act and he will win at Minnesota.

KY did offer according to the player. He didn't have a good visit. Lexington is not what you call a fun town. You have to understand KY fans. Once they go somewhere else, they are dead. Check the KY grammer (after billy g seen him play and KY don't need this this guy." KY fans are not big on words or teeth.

I care about basketball 52 weeks a year. Can't build a team without signing players. Football a passtime around hear.

Posted Wednesday March 26, 2008, About: Pitino denies snubbing Lofton

KY fans for Vols. How sad - These extra weeks of play for the good programs. must be hard for you. You are in this situation because a coach with 76% wins and 12 trips in a row to the NCAA's along with a National Championship was not good enough. Your coach ran players into the ground and caused people to leave or suffer physical problems. Louisville - 17 of 23 teams have advanced to post season events. We are hear - Louisville Men - Sweet Sixteen - Louisville Women - Sweet Sixteen. I'll always pull for KY teams but not beacuse of their fans. .
