  1. Kings in 6 for the Cup
  2. Too many similar guys. Someone will be unhappy. RT @GoodmanCBS: UConn transfer Roscoe Smith has committed to UNLV, his father told CBSSports
  3. RT @GaryParrishCBS: Got @DanWolken (4:20 CT) and @JeffPassan (5:20 CT) on today's show. You can listen here: bit.ly/aliUJo
  4. @BobbyBancroft @Mengus22 Like Urban Meyer?
  5. @jdubs88 Correct. Strictly a competence issue. Like UK, ND was lulled into believing tradition mattered and fell behind. Catching up now
  6. @jdubs88 No program is immune to a bad coaching hire.
  7. @jdubs88 Kentucky mediocre in hoops for several years, made bad hire in Gillispie, headed for gutter. Pulled plug after 2 years.
  8. People were saying the same things about Alabama a few years ago. But I think that piece has good points and is well written.
  9. In other words, I'm not sure there's some magical connection that needs to happen. ND just hasn't been very good for a lot of reasons.
  10. Don't agree with all of that piece - I view Kelly more as the embodiment of Notre Dame's modernization than a reach backwards. We will see.
  11. Nicely done RT @Grantland33: Is Notre Dame football gone for good? by @MichaelWeinreb es.pn/MCC4et
  12. Ian McShane as Norman Dale? #hoosiersremake
  13. @franfraschilla There are some excellent remakes, most recent being True Grit. With good cast and direction, Hoosiers could be awesome.
  14. This report from @Warchant_DC on FSU/Big 12 travel expenses bit.ly/LiUMZm plays nicely into my column today bit.ly/JJi2v0
  15. Good @geoff_calkins column on charter school in inner-city Memphis sending all 51 graduates tocollege bit.ly/KLc0ML
  16. @tsnmike 8 out of 10 games are unwatchable. That may be generous.
  17. Because the product is garbage. Needs gimmicks. MT @raphiellej: Seems like the rage in college hoops is to be able to (play games) on a boat
  18. @jon_ard True story of James J Braddock going from soup lines in the depression to Heavyweight Champ. Russell Crowe played him.
  19. @SethDavisHoops Most people would put Hoosiers up there. Honestly, I think Hoosiers would benefit from a remake.
  20. @SethDavisHoops Very hard to put documentary in same category. I'd go 1) Raging Bull 2) Seabiscuit 3) Cinderella Man
