    Your States' Mr. Basketball your senior year in high school?

    Jeff Mullins. Was originally from NY, I believe, and went to Duke. If that is not enough to make him forgettable, he made the mistake of graduating the same year as Muhammad Ali.

    1966 Title game question

    There was talk about Rupp's language in the locker room at halftime of the game. And, there was always talk about the fact he "did" or "did not" recruit black players. What forever cast him as a racist was a 1991 SI article by Curry Kirkpatrick, I believe. That game was a turning point for...

    Bobby Knight under Investigation by FBI

    Males, on this planet, at least, have gotten away with abusing females since before they, the males, began walking upright. Defending people who use powerful positions to abuse by citing a few lacross players does not change historical fact. Thank goodnees, Knight may now be relegated to...

    Bobby Knight under Investigation by FBI

    This is the correct reading of information in the WP article. Disliking the messenger is not reason to disregard victim and witness statements. Knight is a repeat offender and, for what it is worth, a lousy basketball analysis.

    Bobby Knight under Investigation by FBI

    Knight is, and has been throughout his career, a boorish buffoon. This is not the first time he has abused people simply because he thinks he is above any legal or ethical standard. Giving him a pass because he groped government employees is an interesting addition to US cultural clashes.

    Poor Frank Jackson, and other moments of bliss from the NBA Draft.

    I am 74 and saw UK for the 1st time as 11 year old in 1953-54 season. You are on the money with your observations Poppy. And, keep in mind when reading board posts, any sense at all is uncommon.

    Poor Frank Jackson, and other moments of bliss from the NBA Draft.

    I have lived in the west for over 20 years and spend several weeks(summer)every other year at high elevations in Utah. The Utah image that people in the eastern US continue to perpetuate is outdated by, at the very least, a quarter century. Tourism is big in Utah, especially during ski season...

    Dave Cowens NBA MVP

    Dave Cowens was a superior player at every level. He was recruited by Kentucky native Hugh Durham to FSU. DC played all out every play and he played both center and PF with equal skill.

    Over the years. Who's the Top high school player from each of Ky's 16 regions ?

    I saw Billy Ray Cassidy, Johnny Cox, Kelly Coleman, Billy Ray Lickert(?), Mike Silliman, Tom Thacker, Larry Conley, Jim Rose and more in 50s and 60s. The best one game performance from a player was Donnis Butcher from Meade Memorial in the 15th region. Coleman, most likely, was the best 15th...

    BB Recruiting Kevin Knox....

    Optimism is good. I watched the Canadian kid in the game between the US and World teams and was surprised by his play. If the California kid is as good a shooter as advertised the guard position may be very young, but good. Fox and Monk were pretty good freshman guards.

    Beisner: SI pics from 1958 1-point win over Temple

    The grants, based on need, started, for the most part, under Kennedy and Johnson. They ended, again, for the most part, under Reagan who changed the programs to loans managed by banks. Financial aid prior to that was, again, mostly, based on academic success or veteran status. After Vietnam...
