I would welcome an Igor to assist Mast. The journalistic possibilities are unlimited.

I thought the reference was to Hieronymus Bosch or Halle Berry before remembering the legendary HHC presence, HB.

Final thought: Last night's game was a dud and Purdue is done unless they find another 7'4" guy. I'm already feeling enthusiastic for the next season after a couple of more transfer coups occur. The groundwork for continued success has been established and no one is going to overlook us this time.

I'll choose door #4.

Yes....our first mullet!

I'm surprised that Cali lasted as long as he did. After Adolph Rupp, Kentucky has managed to turn over great coaches like used roadkill. 1. Joe B. Hall 2.Eddie Sutton 3. Rick Pitino 4. Tubby Smith 5. Billy Gillispie.

Who is this Schaefer of whom you speak? Just wondering.

If he had hit that last long three (which barely missed), it would have been a fitting capstone to his collegiate career. The announcers implied that no one was invited to play in the game (which was otherwise a bit boring) unless they would not be playing in college next year. So, I strongly doubt we will see Tominaga's uniform used at NU again unless we decide to elevate it to the others which have been retired to the rafters.

First, the candidates must pass the "Pig Sooooie" test.

What can you say. Tominaga rules. Looking forward to seeing what he does tonight.

Where is Kyle ranked?

Prototype: the late Dwayne Schintzius

Off the top of my head, I can't remember having a player with a mullet before. We may be approaching uncharted territory.

KU lands Zeke Mayo from South Dakota State. (He is from Lawrence). Hopefully his teammate, Kyle, will be closer to home as well when he comes to Lincoln.

I think the portal behaves like a black hole and no one ever returns, but can anyone ever change their mind later like with the faux NBA entry thing? Just wondering.

This makes him sound a lot more like a clone of Diop. Not sure we need another project for next year.

I don't see how we can go wrong with a Pope following us on Easter.

I guess this means the Husker baseball team will not be getting Sidd Finch.

I just hope Frankie is a fan of "Fiddler on the Roof". If he ends up coming here I will plan to make this post a TRADITION!

We will never be able to go back to pretending these athletes are amateurs and eventually some system will be worked out. Perhaps some sort of division grouping the institutions able to "spend big" and ones with smaller budgets with a final tournament which includes a few of the smaller budget schools might work sort of like football now does. Who knows-we just have to compete in the present system until that happens.

One of my favorite, and least appreciated, sports movies is the 1992 Bruce Dern/James Wood classic,"Diggstown" in which he plays a retired boxing champion. Check it out some time and appreciate his work. Interestingly, he attended college at NYU on a basketball scholarship.

Grant Nelson (Summit League) for Alabama, Baylor Scheierman (Summit League) and Dalton Knecht (Big Sky League) for Tennessee have been stars for their NCAA teams after transferring. I have to wonder whether they would have been able to develop their present skills as fully sitting on the bench for a couple of years at their present schools had they started there originally. It seems that the way to success in today's system is being able to spot the upcoming Mid and lower major talent early and harvesting them first. Are coaches able to approach this potential well of talent before they declare for the portal, i.e. poach them, or is it breaking some rule?

He sort of reminds me of Jack Tuz. (I remember him wearing a face mask at BDSC and everyone chanting Tuz,Tuz,Tuz,Tuz with every dribble he took.) JACK TUZ - Los Angeles Times (latimes.com)

I trust you watched the whole 2hr25 minutes of it. Actually, the 1972 movie is one of my favorite musicals but I could not seem to download it.
