Is college basketball a warm [...]
. . . well, maybe, Duke.
Or so says a source who may or may not know what he/she’s talking about. As this story goes, that’ s where the kid wants to play, contrary to other whisperers (who, frankly, are just as credible as my source), who say he really wants to wear UK big blue.

. . . Tom Jurich.
A source close to the situation, a source who has provided reliable information through the years, advises that UCLA is making a maximum effort to lure U of L Athletic Director Tom Jurich to L A.

Like an old rummy, a punch drunk fighter who has lost his perspective from too many punches over too many years, Brett Favre is once again — for 4,569th time — contemplating the renounciation of his retirement.
Word is that he’s going to meet with Minnesota Viking coach Brad Childress at a super secret don’t ask [...]
Several U of L fans have approached me in the last day or so to express their joy at the latest turn in the John Wall journey. Because, well, UK hopes the kid matriculates there for his one year of college. The superballer was cited — not arrested, mind you — for breaking and entering, [...]

He’s retiring and [...]
