[Lobot]

That was a long time ago when Chaminade knocked off Ralph Sampson and Virginia. Still, I suppose they could do so again. They'd have to be better than the squad that played here last season.

We're old.

Several conference teams in action against solid oppoenents in MTE's this week.

Uconn play sTexas at 7:00 for example. Texas is fresh off a buzzer beater aganst Louisville in a game that would have been huge for the Cards. That game and the UConn game will be at MSG in New York.

WVU plays SMU in Fort Myers

Kansas has drawn Chaminade in Maui. Chaminade has actually beaten #1 down there before so you never know.

Houston with a clobbering of ULM 84-31.

USC defeats K-State 82-69

I really didn't see many significant upsets on the national scoreboard except for the ACU game in the BIg XII and one Big 10 game where MSU lost a buy game to James Madison last night. Louisville almost lost one to UMBC.

Now that he is back at his private college, anything that he does will just be swept under the rug. Also, with the free for all of college sports now, there is nothing that he cannot get away with.

Re: Kerr Krissa - Arizona put out a statement saying there was no involvement of its staff members/coaches and U of A received no penalties or corrective actions as a result of the NCAA's evaluation

That's a really carefully worded statment. It mentions former student-athlete and doesn't name him but only addresses current staff and coaches.
