Villanova Wildcats
1. I Got A Name. As if it wasn't rare enough to find one young African-American with the name Corey, Coach Wright went out and found two: freshman guards Corey Stokes and Corey Fisher, both McDonald's All-Americans in high school. Each has shown tremendous promise in their limited time on the court ...

Davidson Wildcats
1. The freight. Here is some basic info you might hear over the next few days. Davidson has the nation's longest winning streak at 22 games. The Wildcats won the Southern Conference for the third year in a row, have won their past 36 conference games and 46 of the past 47....

Arizona Wildcats
1. Depth That Rivals A Wading Pool. If we were comparing depth, a team like Tennessee might be an aging porn actress while the Wildcats are a young virgin, still contemplating how long "true love" actually lasts. The Wildcats have three (3!) players that are averaging over 8.8 points a game and only...

Kansas State Wildcats
1. Beas-who? One wonders how Kansas State University, a school that has lacked a dominance on the hardwood in recent years, manage to resurrect Jesus Christ himself in the form of a 6-foot-10, 235-forward from the Washington D.C. area. Well, Michael Beasley was coached by in an AAU summer league and...

Kentucky Wildcats
1. Billy G Is Not My Lover. Many fans wanted Tubby Smith out for a long, long time in the Commonwealth, so with that exodus they got Billy Gillespie. The Wildcats had a 6-7 record following a loss to now-hated Rick Pitino, and everyone thought that ol' Billy Boy might not be the guy after all. Panic...

Stanford Cardinal
1. The Happiest Place On Earth. While other programs struggle with illegal shenanigans and recruiting scandals, the Cardinal are definitely rated G. Twins Brook and Robin Lopez are obsessed with everything related to Walt Disney, including knowing the answers to trivia questions such as: Where did W...

Forever In Debt To Your Priceless Advice
The Spurs, already with one disgraced college coach at the helm of their D-League team, have brought on Kelvin Sampson in an advisory role. Maybe he give them some tips on 'roiding, as Steroid Nation questions whether he was showing telltale signs of a juicer....

In What Universe Is This A Foul?
A foul, Mr. Official? Seriously? This call is the 2000 Florida election results of college basketball....


Don't Throw Water Bottles In The Desert
Storming the Floor mentioned this yesterday, and now we have the moving picture evidence of the water bottle heave during the Arizona-USC game on Thursday night....

Nicole Manske Will One Day Rule The World
So you probably new that NASCAR has its own Erin Andrews (although I prefer the original). But did you know that Nicole Manske has her sights set on the NFL? Manske, a former Miss Illinois Teen USA and native of Rockton, Ill. (where she was a high school cheerleader on the same squad with Danica Pat...

LeBron Is Human After All
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who isn't going to cover the Blazers/Clippers game, because of the pain it caused my eyes to watch. (Although I will tell you that Portland won 82-80.) When he isn't recovering from the ugliness of professional basketball, he can be found making fun of it at...

A Night At The Roxbury, Stanford-Style
The third guy in the video is clearly 6'8" Junior Lawrence Hill....


To Watch Tonight
What to watch while asking the referee for his phone number ... • 6:17 p.m. — Super Bowl XLII: Pittsburgh Steelers at Dallas Cowboys. (Just seeing who really reads these.)

Kentucky Fans Are Having Anger Displacement Issues
In the "holy cow, fans can be scary" file, the frustrated fans at Kentucky, suffering through a 9-9 season, have taken a lot of their ire out on recent transfer (to Illinois! Woo!) Alex Legion. (He of the soothsaying mother.)...

Fun With Stephen A. Smith Blog Comments
Our story so far: Stephen A. Smith started a blog, and then things got out of hand in the comments. So he heightened security; now requiring registration before one can comment. And that's a good thing, because now that all the jerks and racists are gone, all that remains is comedy gold....

The Clashing Of The Titanic Titans
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who is in no way related to Kevin McHale and who has taken the necessary legal steps to ensure that it stays that way. When he's not screaming in soulless rage at the merciless Pagan gods, he can be found making fart jokes at Basketbawful. Enjoy!...

Cleveland State Snatches Victory Marshmallows
Screaming Vikings. The Butler didn't do it. Haven't had enough time elapse since the last use of bruised-cucumber infused beverage humor, unfortunately. Still, the Vikings did plenty of screaming last night, as Cleveland State knocked off No. 12 Butler 56-52. The win marked just the second time the ...
