Every kid plays and gets a trophy mentality.
That tells the state of the ACC...Virginia and Duke playing for the championship..

.
Who would have thought that would ever happen.

My grandmother owned a boarding house with 15 boarders. One week after Pearl Harbor every boarder had enlisted.

She changed the boarding house to a small inn.

I remember what a high school coach said to me years ago, 'basketball is a big mans game."


The bigs for Arizona did any thing they wanted .
Bob Devaney 62-72. 2x National champion ,8x Big Eight champion.

Once upon a time there was a term used in college sports , "student athlete."

Future generations will laugh and ask old folks what in the world did that mean.

Cousin Eddie Sharing A Family Anecdote
He came across as a no nonsense type guy who will demand total effort from players and coaches.

Seems to be the type man who won't be an aw shucks type but a kick butt when needed.

Tennessee was the first to get the knife in the back and now Ole MIss is second.
As I have previously posted,

The Russians Are Coming the Russians Are Coming!!!
I had hoped this game would not be what it is becoming.
" The Russians Are Coming the Russians Are Coming?"
This entire process has been unfair for the Ole Miss players and wonder why this "high drama " was not only leaked but publicized by all the TV sports, newspapers and radio folks. Sports forums included.

Turk has not aged and what about the janitor?
