I see our post players having trouble with big front lines like ULL, but the post players Fox is bringing in can all handle the ball and look to have decent mid-range jumpers. I foresee a lot of match-ups like we saw when App played DC, however now we'll look more like DC and the SBC opponents more...

Audi AG will be next. The brand is in a serious race to the top of the luxury market with Mercedes and BMW. They need a US plant. The braintrust in Ingolstadt has two mfg megasites in Germany, as well as nine other production facilities in Hungary, Belgium, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Slovakia ...

Have to make this short with the storm we're having but Coach Light passed away this morning. Thoughts and Prayers for his entire family. May he Rest In Peace.

Very sad news. Coach was one of a kind and so much fun to be around. Prayers and God speed to his family. This hurts--a lot! One of the finest men I've ever known. A prince of a guy and an away-from-home father figure to all of his former players and students. This news wasn't unexpected; but I sti...

Two brief snippits of info. Just noticed that 6-3 combo guard Dustin Clarke graduated with his class on Saturday. Will he return for his last season of eligibility?

The athletic department will be on the hook for our allotment regardless, so going through back channels to save a few bucks hurts us in the long run. You are dead on target, Beau. Back channel sales only be...
