    Who's the 1st Wildcat player that you met, spoke to in person?

    I met Derek Anderson a couple of years ago at a breast cancer fundraiser. Chatted with him for a few minutes. Of course I asked him if his knee was really healed and he was ready to play in the '97 championship game and he said it was. He's a really nice guy.

    Article about Zion says the Pels are tweaking the way he walks and runs.

    Here's a good article I saw a while back from a doctor who specializes in athletic injuries. He goes in depth about his walk and his weight and how it could cause him to be injury prone.

    Any update on D. Allen?

    I talked to Derek Anderson about a year ago at a fundraiser. He confirmed that he was fully recovered from the ACL injury and could have played in the national championship game. I actually think Pitino did the right thing by not playing him.

    The Shame About Big Blue Madness Tickets

    They need to go back to doing it the old way. You wait in line for the actual Big Blue Madness, not to buy tickets. No scalpers that way. Those were the days.

    Looking for a better way...

    How many users does it allow? Another way to save money with these streaming services is to share it with other households. With Sling I can have 3 users on at a time and we share it with our kids who live elsewhere. Of course the only time that is a problem is if they want to watch ESPN the...

    Looking for a better way...

    It works best with a Roku TV or box. I use it on my Fire Stick and it cuts out occasionally. One thing to remember with Sling is you have an option for a DVR (which is extra), but you can't record games. ESPN and SEC network won't allow it, which really sucks.

    Looking for a better way...

    I have Sling also, but the problem is you can't have more than one person logged into ESPN at one time. ESPN is part of the Orange package which only allows one user at a time. To have 3 users, you have to have the Orange and Blue package (which I have), but multiple users are only allowed on...

    Dawkins proposed payment plans to Jarred Vanderbilt among others including RJ Hampton

    Exactly, this is the answer. Schools don't need to pay players, just let them do what anybody else in the world can do. Make money off their own image. They are doing it now, just breaking the rules to do so and hiding it. I'm just surprised there hasn't been a lawsuit against the NCAA to allow...

    Dawkins proposed payment plans to Jarred Vanderbilt among others including RJ Hampton

    I don't think this is really anything to worry about. Apparently Dawkins was offering lots of players money to go to an Adidas school. If they went to an Nike school then I would assume they turned the money down. The one name in the story that is interesting is James Wiseman.

    If the NCAA is consistent

    I think if there weren't a bunch of other schools involved in the FBI sting Louisville would really get hammered. Very possibly get the death penalty. But now it looks like they were doing what a bunch of other schools were and it makes it not look as bad. But the big difference with...

    OT: UL gets second commit

    I think the NCAA will be handing down sanctions for the schools involved in the FBI scandal sometime during this season. Louisville is gonna get hammered hard and will probably see at least a couple years post season ban. Most of these players will probably be backing out of their commitments...

    Louisville altered recruiting document before and after Brian Bowen’s visit

    That's not the death penalty, if that was the case we had it too. The death penalty is when they literally shut the program down for a certain number of years.

    Diallo workout in Chicago

    Did anyone else notice how he jumps forward on his shot instead of straight up and down? Wonder if that is what is causing the inconsistency.

    Jones saying he's hearing Gabriel may be gone soon

    It's starting to look like we're gonna be younger next year than this year, which is hard to believe. Very real possibility that Wenyen, PJ, and Quade leave and there goes almost all of our experience. Still don't know if Vanderbilt will be healthy or not. I think the only way to change this is...
