    Jeff Bidwell (99.5 Paducah sports radio) show this morning

    The selection committee conspiracy stuff is outright ridiculous. If you think the committee takes the time to "screw" anyone, you're delusional. Those dudes are trying to seed 68 teams, pick 30-something at-large teams, and make everything fit with sites. They don't have time to screw anyone...

    The irony and no win situation we are in now.

    LOL. The NCAA tournament is about advancing. Nobody gives a damn who beats who. GBB!!!

    Thursday game time

    Probably after the UMBC/KSU game. GBB!!!

    How confident are you (% wise) we make Final Four?

    Well, assuming Kansas State wins today, they might be without their leading scorer. And they're already a limited team offensively. Cincinnati has been great defensively, but like K-State, they're extremely limited offensively. Considering Kentucky will be favored in each game they play...

    12 and 13 seed

    Well, if Buffalo shoots 55% again (and hits another 15 treys), they'll probably advance. Fortunately, neither is likely. Cats are in great shape. GBB!!!

    College Basketball and the NBA

    The vast majority of universities lose money on athletics. How "play for pay" would work is beyond me. IIRC, fewer than two dozen athletics programs are totally self sustaining. GBB!!!

    Could a 25-9 record get us a 2 seed?

    If Kentucky finishes 25-9, that would likely have them with a top ten RPI (SOS should still be top ten as well). They'd have a boatload of quality wins. I imagine a three seed would be more likely than a four. So how does UK climb to a #2? Hope schools like North Carolina, Xavier...

    Jalen Rose: A message to all the college kids

    Did Rose recommend a way to "pay the kids" (LOL at calling young men kids, but hey, to each his own)? There are what, 350 D-I teams? Who gets paid? Who pays them? How much? Do "the kids" get paid based on production, or is this gonna be a socialist kind of pay system? Since the men's...

    OTIS fans all getting their hopes up

    Best day for U6 fans in quite some time. Unfortunately for the birds, if what we've learned today is all there is, they're just setting themselves up to be massively disappointed (yet again). GBB!!!

    The NCAA should look into a financial aid system..

    The NCAA should keep their nose out of business that doesn't involve the NCAA. If an agent wants to risk his/her money by securing a client before he enters college, that's on the agent. If the money is, in any way, associated with the school or arranged by the school, then you'd have an...

    Tip of the iceberg

    As long as Kentucky isn't directly involved, I'm not concerned. There just isn't much a university can do if an agent decides to give money to a parent or athlete. IMO, this issue isn't about Kentucky or Duke or North Carolina or Louisville. It's about the NCAA and their expectations...

    Sports Illustrated: NCAA Must Change Rules

    Hopefully, this will result in some rules changes. The pressure on schools to prevent this kind of stuff is ridiculous considering the schools can't do anything about it. GBB!!!

    Pat & Pete LMAO

    Any Kentucky fan that doesn't take this stuff seriously = the delusional crap we saw from the fan bases from Louisville and North Carolina. Hopefully, Coach Cal, Mr, Knox, and others are telling the truth. Nobody is above lying though. Fingers crossed that UK's staff is clean. So far...
