Austrie said yesterday that his he and his girlfriend of three years, Heather Coombs, will get married July 10, 2010. Coombs is a former basketball player at Southern Connecticut State University.
So let me get this right...Craig decided to spend his years as a starter (largely) at a national powerhouse with the same girl. From another school. For three years. That is the whitest thing I've ever heard. Even if Heather Coombs is a fox, and she played ball at SCSU - so she's most assuredly not, this saddens me. Seriously, if he hasn't had like one hundred affairs, I'm gonna be really disappointed. It's almost hard to root for him now. This is a disgrace to the "do you know who i am?" line that I've always longed to be able to use.
3/7.09 Note: apparently Heather Coombs is indeed a fox. I have seen some facebook pictures since originally posting this. Nice work by Craig, but i still think he should have been taking better advantage of being the starting point guard at UConn.

Bro ken ankles
AJ Price: "...they didn't do a good job of playing the ball screen all game. I actually felt disrespected. They continually went under the screen time and time again, even after I even got off to a good start. At first, I was just going to take McNeal 1-on-1 but I said to myself, 'I can probably get a good shot.'"
Efforts like the Marquette game make you think UConn can again be the best team in the nation. Problem is, it's difficult to get all the ingredients together on the same night. AJ was amazing, Stanley played to his potential for the first time since the Maine game last season, shit - even Scottie Haralson contributed. If all that happens consistently, then UConn is the team to beat.

799 and counting
The win over South Florida leaves Jimmy just one away from 800 career wins. Here's a little treat in his honor as they go to Marquette tonight...

How many steps!?!?!
Kudos to Bob Knight for talking about the traveling problem in college basketball all season. He would never mention this example because the offender plays for Knight's beloved Coach K, so thanks to the good folks at Deadspin for bringing this one to my attention. Beware: the slo-mo will have you dissecting this clip like the Zapruder film for a good 20 minutes trying to figure if he takes 11, 12, or 13 steps without dribbling the ball.

Show me the money!
Yesterday Ken Krayeske felt that Jim Calhoun's 1.6 mil salary was way out of line. And after researching what some D1 coaches make at other public universities, I agree that his salary is nuts. Dude deserves a fucking RAISE! Take a look at where he ranks and tell me otherwise. (Oh, and so we get all our facts right, here is an interactive map containing state budget deficits)
-Billy Donovan (Florida): 3.5 mil
-Bill Self (Kansas): 3 mil
-Thad Matta (Ohio State): 2.5 mil
-John Calipari (Memphis): 2.35 mil
-Billy Gillespie (Kentucky): 2.3 mil
-Bruce Pearl (Tennessee): 2.3 mil
-Rick Pitino (Louisville): 2.25 mil
-Roy Williams (North Carolina): 2.11 mil
-Rick Barnes (Texas): 2 mil
-Bob Huggins (West Virginia): 2 mil
-Ben Howland (UCLA): 1.97 mil
-Tubby Smith (Minnesota): 1.75 mil
-Tom Izzo (Michigan State): 1.7 mil
-Tom Crean (Indiana): 1.6+ mil
-Gary Williams (Maryland): 1.6 mil
After seeing that list, there's only one thing Jimmy C. can ask for...

You Can't Handle the Truth!
While this afternoon's 64-50 win over South Florida was pretty boring, the press conference apparently wasn't (then again, is a Jimmy C. presser ever boring?).
Mike Anthony, Hartford Courant
HARTFORD, Conn. -- Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun got into a heated exchange at a postgame news conference Saturday with a freelance journalist and political activist who questioned why the coach of a public university was making $1.6 million in tough economic times.
"Not a dime back," Calhoun joked as Ken Krayeske asked about Calhoun's salary and the state's budget deficit, which is estimated at $944 million for the current fiscal year and up to $8 billion over the next two years.
When Krayeske continued the line of questioning, Calhoun got angry.
"My best advice to you is, shut up," said Calhoun, who offered to talk to Krayeske after the news conference that followed the top-ranked Huskies' 64-50 victory over South Florida.
Just when you thought the folks here at 77-74dotcom wouldn't hook you up with the video...ENJOY! And in the words of Jimmy C, "You're Welcome!"

26, 13, 6, and 1 choke out
Although the Bucks lost to the Cleveland LeBron's and his 55 pts last night, Charlie Villanueva had himself a big 3 1/2 quarters: 26 pts, 13 boards, 6 assists, a take down and one choke out. Check out the video kids as evidence why you never ask Charlie who his barber is.

AJ Fined or something
From Mike Anthony - Hartford Courant
UConn basketball player A.J. Price appeared at Superior Court in Rockville on Wednesday to face three motor vehicle violations and was given a continuance to next Wednesday.
Price, 22, of Amityville, N.Y., was pulled over by Coventry police Jan. 25 at 2:39 a.m. and charged with speeding, operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license and failure to carry registration. Operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license is a misdemeanor.
He was stopped while driving back to campus after UConn arrived home from a 69-61 win at Notre Dame Jan. 24.
So let me get this right. UConn gets it's biggest win of the season on national t.v. and hours later some Coventry cop pulls over AJ motherfuckin' Price? What kind of communist does something like that...i would say he must be a Notre Dame grad trying to exact some kind of revenge BUT he's a Coventry cop. So he probably didn't graduate from anything other than a GED program - HEYooooo

Caron to Cleveland?
ESPN is reporting that the Cleveland LeBrons are in trade talks with the Wizards about Caron Butler and Antwain Jamison. Even though this would mean instant death for my already seemingly overmatched Celtics, I hope it happens. Caron is a winner and deserves to play for one. He wants to, "...be a winner, not a chicken dinner."
I don't think it happens- the trade would be tantamount to Washington giving up on their fans, although I suppose it can't get much worse, as the deal would include Wally's terrible contract (albeit expiring). It's kinda stupid to sign an injured player to a $111m contract and then trade away a fan favorite. Anyway, good luck Caron. You deserve a championship - even if it is at the expense of my C's.
Below, a clip to remind us why we loved Tuff Juice

Top 10 UConn Players of the Jim Calhoun Era
1) Richard Hamilton - There is an admitted log jam at the top, but as Final 4 MVP and leader of the 1999 National Championship team, he paved the way for winning and gets the nod. Being the 1st UConn player to win an NBA Championship doesn't hurt either.
2) Ray Allen - The most talented player we've ever had. Look no further than the 1996 Big East Championship Allen/Allen game; Jesus walked on air in the lane. And that's a Shuttlesworth joke. That shot still gives me goosebumps. But you gotta beat Mississippi State.
3) Caron Butler - One of the easiest players to root for; how could you not love Caron? Arrested 15 times before the age of 15, Caron turned his life around and is now a two-time NBA All-Star. Oh, and his two years in Storrs weren't bad either (15.6/7.6, 20.3/7.5).
4) Emeka Okafor - A stud on and off the court, if only they were all like Emeka. But, in the biggest game of his career it was Calhoun who had the best game, keeping an angry, two foul having Okafor on the bench until the second half. And in case you didn't know, he was only a top-100 recruit.
5) Donyell Marshall - You gotta make those free throws...
6) Ben Gordon - Cold blooded killer. See: Madison Square Garden
7) Cliff Robinson - A trailblazer in many ways. Uncle Cliffy not only captains the Eric Hayward Convict All Stars, he was also a member of the 1988 NIT championship team - which was the first time people realized you could win at Connecticut. Cliff was named to the all tournament team and ranks 8th on the NBA games played list.
8) Hasheem Thabeet - A tough first year - his first shot was a baseline hook at Gampel that hit the side of the backboard - saw Hash turn into one of the best players in the nation by his junior year. A total gamechanger with room to move up this list based on results of the 08-09 season.
9) Rudy Gay - Probably the second best player in terms of athleticism to Ray. But he wasn't a winner, and only played two years. Serious points deducted.
10) VOTE in the poll on the right for the 10 spot. Here are the nominees...
Chris Smith - UConn's career scoring leader with 2,145 pts
Nadav Henefeld - Paved the way for Doron Sheffer & Uri Cohen-Mintz!, the "Israeli Larry Bird" and was huge part of the 1990 "Dream Season". If the Jewish Mafia didn't part the Atlantic to bring him back to the promised land Nadav would have been much higher on the list.
Khalid El-Amin - Helped "Shock The World!", long history of hitting big shots.
Tate George - Need we say more?
2) Ray Allen - The most talented player we've ever had. Look no further than the 1996 Big East Championship Allen/Allen game; Jesus walked on air in the lane. And that's a Shuttlesworth joke. That shot still gives me goosebumps. But you gotta beat Mississippi State.

Game Blog - 2nd Half
8:13 - Stanley needs to start shooting the damn ball! He's caught it wide open a couple times and done the exaggerated white guy ball fake. Terrible. I know he hasn't made a three yet this year (tasering my balls..), but he's gotta shoot it for them to win against good teams.
8:15 - Holy shit! Dyson is on the bench and despite having surgery like 6 hours ago. He must be higher than that time him and Doug Wiggins got pulled over on campus last year.
8:18 - Channeling Bob Knight: "It's about time they called the carry!"
8:29 - Thabeet called for 4th foul with 11:20 to play. Mike Kitts = Tim Donaghy.
8:32 - My god - they just showed the replay. That's a terrible call. Bilas: "You just cannot make that call." McDonough: "Too many times this year good Big East games have been ruined by the whistles." Amazing Jimmy didn't get a T.
8:35 - UConn takes first lead since 2-0. The XL is Rockin'!
- Stanley might have broken Blair's face!
8:38 - Stanley makes a second consecutive jumper, albeit severely off board. Raftery: "Stanley, with a kiss in downtown Hartford!"
8:41 - Very worried, up five with 7:13 to play, that the Pitt guards are scoreless. Hard to keep them down all game, but great job so far.
8:55 - And Fields makes a three to go up 64-61, as I feared. AJ follows with a terrible airball from 3. 2:30 to go.
8:56 - No shit No! Fields from three again. Down 6 with 2:20 to go. Balls!
8:58 - Huge steal by Kemba and bucket, down four, 1:37 left.
9:00 - Kemba with another steal, Stanley fouled but misses front end. I hope Ruslyan Inyatkin throws a piece of scrap metal at him.
9:02 - fuck me...
Below is a clip that best expresses my feelings about this game, except the laughing at the end.

Game Blog - 1st Half
7:02 - Nice job by the fans. The XL is packed and it should be. I tried to get tickets, but anything in the lower bowl cost a kidney and $500.
7:04 - Bill Raftery: "Jay Bilas, Sean McDonough...the Huskies open up man-to-man!"
7:06 - Stanley makes a short jumper. Great sign.
7:07 - DeJuan Blair with the foul on Thabeet. Who could have seen that coming...
- McDonough mentions it's Thabeet's birthday. I heard he didn't go to any of his three parties last week. Apparently his three birthday orgies tired him out.
7:09 - Thabeet is down! What looked like a stupid foul by Thabeet was actually Blair grabbing his arm and body slamming him. Fat Bastard.
7:17 - Thabeet returns and dunks emphatically (triple word score!)
7:19 - McDonough: "McGee who's deep down the bench normally, brought in to bang Thabeet for a moment, got called for a foul." Woah, easy big fella. What do you think this is, Saturday night at Hilltop Apartments?
7:30 - I see Dove has a new haircut. I guess he felt so much like a rape victim after getting abused by Calhoun during all those practices he decided to shave his head. Doesn't want to recognize himself in the mirror...
7:34 - Going to commercial you hear Raf say, "I was so tempted on Price's three...(sound gets cut)" Noooo! tell us Billy, tell us!
7:41 - Sam Young gives it the old Antric Klaiber dunk and then fouls Edwards on the loose ball. Hehehe. By the way, did you know Edwards' father Earl played in the NFL? Sorry, but you're not allowed to say acknowledge Gavin without mentioning that fact.
7:44 - DeJuan Blair is playing great. 10 pts, 11 boards with 3:00 left in 1st half. Taking the ball at Thabeet, not good for us.
7:49 - Seeing as there's a hundred scouts in the building I thought I'd analyze the performances thus far. Blair draft stock: UP. Thabeet draft stock: DOWN
7:51 - AJ hits big three at buzzer. At the half Pitt:36, UConn:33. Blair 15+13

Hey Norm Roberts, You Can Have Doug Wiggins Now
For the second edition of Facebook updates we go to UMass, and some community service time, with Doug Wiggins. Unlike Mandeldove, who doesn't put out a lot of gold, Wiggins is full of unintentional comedy. There's some great stuff on the cutting room floor of this column.

Gay.C.C 3.0
Another tough day for the ACC
BC 80, #5Duke 74
-Brian Zoubek and the Dookies just got owned by BC and some schlub named Joe Trapani. Remember, this BC team that lost to Harvard earlier this year the game after defeating UNC. So, using my skills of deduction Harvard must be better than Duke and UNC...
UVA 85, #11Clemson 81
#3UNC 69, Miami 65
-Two terrible possessions in the final minute cost Miami this game, but my boy Jack McClinton (patting myself on the back) had 35 of Miami's 65 points on 7/12 from 3-pt
Yup, the top of the ACC is really strong...

-Two terrible possessions in the final minute cost Miami this game, but my boy Jack McClinton (patting myself on the back) had 35 of Miami's 65 points on 7/12 from 3-pt
Yup, the top of the ACC is really strong...
Majerus Misses Game
Associated Press via ESPN
PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Saint Louis coach Rick Majerus missed Saturday's game at Rhode Island after his girlfriend was injured in a traffic accident.
According to local police she was speeding to get two dozen donuts after awaking to screams of, "Majerus hungry! Majerus want donut! Gerrrraarrrrr!"
Majerus issued a statement that said the injury was serious and added, "I feel compelled to help her at this difficult time."
Majerus added he hoped that, while staying in the hospital, the staff would hook up an I.V. of pork fat for him.

My favorite part of this dismantling was Lance Thomas doing his best Jeff Adrien impression, getting in the face of his teammates during a timeout. Thomas went balistic, even hitting Jon Scheyer in the head! Scheyer's recoil and look of fear was hilarious - I haven't seen a white Duke athlete so afraid of a black person since those lacrosse players were taken to jail after raping that stripper.

Is Erin Andrews Overrated?
It's Saturday, which means College GameDay. Because we couldn't find a video/music montage of Jay Bilas, we chose to go with the following. My favorite is the 2:40 mark with the guy doing his Dave Chappelle "Great New York Boobs" impression. Va Va Varoomski!
The video begs the question: do we over rate Erin Andrews? I mean, she does night games so we're always half in the bag or more when we see her, and she kinda seems like a bitch. The litmus test: if you're at a bar, is she anything more than a cute girl? I mean, in any decent place she shouldn't even be close to hottest girl in the place. The girls who do her makeup (I'm looking at you, Erin McParland) are hotter than her. It's an interesting question...I'm not sure how I feel.
In related ESPN hot reporter news, Stacey Dales (one of the only hot womens basketball players ever) has quit over an airline ticket dispute (Kirk and Ricky can relate...). Damn shame as I might take her straight up against Andrews, though Dales would definitely be getting points. It would be one of those 2007 Patriots lines, where everyone expects a blow out, so Vegas has to skew the line to deter heavy money flow even though the two reporters are very close.
On the topic of lines and Vegas psychology, I think they totally overreacted to the Dyson injury, as UConn is only giving 9.5 at Seton Hall today. It will be a good test of their perimeter defense though, Gause and Hazell are pretty tough on the wing - but the Fightin' Gonzalez's have nobody inside and are little depth. I like UConn to pull away in the second half- also, never bet against a Jim Calhoun team with its proverbial back to the wall.
UConn -9.5
Flier Special = Rudy Fernandez +500 to win the Slam Dunk tonight

Dyson Out for Season?
Early word through the grapevine from our sources close to the team is that Jerome Dyson's MRI didn't go well and that a Meniscus problem may shelf him for the remainder of the year. Stay tuned to 77-74dotcom for updates as I go repeatedly punch myself in the genitals.

Syracuse Post game
Notes
-with 12 minutes left in the second half Eric Devendorf bitched to ref John Cahill (Thabeet DRILLED him in the face with an elbow) to the point that Cahill had to stop the game, shut up Devo, and talk to Boeheim. After the game Devo said he was so mad that if Cahill was a woman he would have punched him in the face.
-Early on Stanley hit two outside shots to double his jumper total for the season. Here was the exchange.
Sean McDonough: Robinson rattles home a three!
Bill Raftery: This is gonna become his neighborhood if he keeps that up. (For you kids out there, here is a look at Mr. Robinson's neighborhood)
-After Dyson went down in the first half McDonough kicked it to sideline reporter Allen Hopkins for an update on Dyson. Hopkins said he didn't have any news yet. That's just lazy. Erin Andrews would have been in the locker room trading bj's for MRI results. She hustles.
77-74dotcom conducted its first guerilla advertising campaign tonight. Our car fliers had catchy slogans like, "Digger Phelps hates us, you'll love us!" and "Visit the site or the terrorists/Duke wins"
-Jonathan Mandeldove was the only player who didn't take his warm-up pants off during the game. I guess he finally gets the message. Might be time for another Jonathan Mandeldove Facebook Status Suicide Watch (JMFSSW) update...
-Calhoun is now three games from 800 wins. Roy Williams only has 582...thawhat a pussy.
-Boeheim called Thabeet the best shot blocker in the history of the Big East, and Thabeet made him look good with 8 points, 16 boards, and 7 blocks. Enjoy your three birthday parties this week Hash, you earned 'em.
-Onuwaku missed that dunk for a push! Bad news if you had the 'Cuse and 12 like me.

Another reason womens basketball cannot be taken seriously
From the Associated Press via ESPN
MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. -- Central Michigan and its women's basketball coach are being sued by a former player, who claims her heterosexuality was a factor in losing a scholarship after two seasons.
Brooke Heike said she fell out of favor with Sue Guevara immediately after the coach was hired in 2007. Heike said Guevara told her she wore too much makeup and was not the coach's "type." That meant she wasn't a lesbian, according to a lawsuit filed last week in federal court in Bay City.
Scissor me timbers, that sounds terrible

Eric Hayward Convict All-Stars
A variety of factors were taken into consideration when forming the starting lineup for this team of All-Stars. First, you must have actually played in a game for the Huskies to qualify. That considered, the most important factors are the transgression themselves as measured by frequency and severity. Playing ability is secondary on this team, although it is a very talented roster.
Coach: Clyde Vaughn
Aug. 18, 04: Charged with patronizing a prostitute and interfering with a police investigation.
Unfortunately this wasn't a new thing for Vaughn.
Point Guard: Doug Wiggins
2006-2008: Two failed drug tests, which were kept under wraps until....
Jan. 08: Cited for possession of alcohol by a minor and driving with a suspended license.
Nov. 22, 08: Arrested for breaking and entering to commit a misdemeanor.
Shooting Guard: Antonio Kellogg
Mar. 05: Charged with possession of marijuana
Apr. 05: Charged with assaulting & interfering with a police officer and criminal tresspassing.
Small Forward: Doug Wrenn
Oct. 98: Charged with shoplifting an $85 pair of sneakers from Bob's Store in Hamden.
Oct. 99: Issed citation for creating a public disturbance outside Cody's Diner, New Haven.
Jan. 00: Suspended in the infamous "Tickets for Tims" scandal at the Timberland Store in Westfarms Mall.
Apr. 00: Charged with breach of peace after an incident at a UConn dorm.
But in his defense: "I'm not a convict, per se" - D. Wrenn, Jan. 2002
Power Forward: (Captain) Cliff Robinson
Mar. 90: Charged with fourth-degree assault for punching a female police officer outside a Portland bar. This artile gives some details about the incident, with priceless gems from Uncle Cliffy.
Mar. 94: Charged with misdemeanor simple battery after getting into a shoving match with a truck driver outside Chicago.
Feb. 01: Charged with DUI and possession of marijuana in Scottsdale.
Failed drug test and received 5 game suspensions in 2005 and 2006 playoffs (oh, and the '97 possession charge that got droped).
Center: Eric Hayward
I'm sorry, I can't even joke about this. But here is a report from the CT Department of Public Safety.
6th Man Nominees
Brian Fair
Antric Klaiber
Rudy Johnson
Kirk King
Marcus Williams
VOTE for the sixth man in the toolbar on the right.
Some of you might be wondering why a few notable Huskies who got in trouble are not on this list. We cannot emphasize the following enough: If you win a National Championship then everything goes away. Winning cures all. So you're off the hook Ricky, Khalid, and Ben. But if AJ Price and Jerome Dyson don't want to be coming off the bench for the 2010 edition of the Eric Hayward Convict All-Stars I would suggest they handle business this year.

Facialization
Ok Greg, we get it. You enjoy balls on your chin.
Further, Jack McClinton had 34 points in this game. That equals 66 in the last two. Against Wake and Duke. I continue to be correct.

Wrenn will he learn?
Doug Wrenn continues to make headlines, and like during his time at UConn, not for basketball. Wrenn, best known for his role as the starting SF on the "Eric Hayward Convict All-Star Team", faces 12-14 months for 2 counts of second degree assault after a road-rage incident last March. In his defense, Wrenn was in a hurry to get his 5 finger discount on Tims at the local mall.

Great Moments in Michigan History
Michigan comes to town tonight in what was supposed to be a good game as recently as three weeks ago. But the teams have gone opposite ways since then. Vegas is finally giving UConn some love, but it's to the detriment of our wallets. The spread is 17. We're calling that a stay away game, though gun to head I would take Michigan and the points after they rocked Penn State by 20 earlier this week. Hopefully for Michigan, this game wont be as embarrassing as the one below.

Ramblin' Man
Keno Davis has a tough road ahead of him at Providence; imagine what another 5 years of loses to UConn like last Saturday's might do to him. I mean, really, how do you take the same team that has won 3 straight and get blown out by 33. Tim Welsh's stock jumped 50 points after the weekend: BUY, BUY, BUY!
Speaking of the economy, did anyone else have trouble buying a Snuggie this past holiday season? Well I figured out who bought them all.
Rick Pitino, who enjoys receiving free bowls of soup, forgot to tell the Cards they had a game Monday night. Samardo Samuels and Earl Clark will probably sleep with a nightlight on and pee the bed for the next month thinking about Hash and Adrien. At least Rick always has his fallback plan.
Dikembe had the finger shake, Hakeem had The Dream Shake, but what do we call The Hasheem Shake? The cashier at Blimpie called a block on the railing, but it seemed to have firmly established position to me.
Found Kyle McAlarney's cousin on The Price is Right. Should help to clarify some things.
Josh Boone seems to be receiving a lot of press recently for helping out a fellow motorist. But we here at 77-74dotcom know that it was really Josh's mom who pulled over the car and called 911: after all, she did everything but post up and rebound while at Storrs with Josh. Personally, I would have kept driving; maybe it's cause i'm an asshole, but the guy was from Jersey and I know the type of people who drive a Chrysler Sebring.
Interested in a head coaching job at Michigan? just get a coaching gig at West Virginia first. Neither John Beilein nor Rich Rodriguez grew up in Michigan, played at/went to Michigan, or ever coached at Michigan or in the state. And both have playing styles completely different than what had been in place at Michigan. Yet both get poached from WVU and have brought down one of the greatest sports schools ever (i even wore a Webber jersey for school pictures one year). Either something fishy is going on or A.D. William Martin (yes, Billy Martin. That should be a sign right there) is completely nuts. Take notice Jeff Hathaway; pull shit like what's going on at Michigan and we'll make a "Hathaway: Go Away" t-shirt.

Gay.C.C. Part 2
January 21, 2009, Coach K, "It seems like people are always talking about the Big East. Our league is the toughest league. I don't think there's any question about it."
Well, the league must be pretty tough because Wake Forest and Duke both got their doors blown off last night. I thought the top four teams in the ACC were better than the Big East...
Clemson 74, Duke 47
My favorite part of this dismantling was Lance Thomas doing his best Jeff Adrien impression, getting in the face of his teammates during a timeout. Thomas went balistic, even hitting Jon Scheyer in the head! Scheyer's recoil and look of fear was hilarious - I haven't seen a white Duke athlete so afraid of a black person since those lacrosse players were taken to jail after raping that stripper. Amazing - unfortunately the clip is no where to be found.
When will white people learn not to attempt to take charges? Either Paulus was trying to get some balls in his mouth-it's not gay if the other guy is hanging from the rim! - or Paulus was doing his best Luke Harangody impression (ND is dead by the way. They are playing so bad that Digger Phelps lost his Golden Domer Boner last night).
Miami 79, Wake 52
-you heard it here first folks, check the archives. On Jan. 18, while the nation was lapping his balls like a thirsty dog drinking from its water dish, I said Teague was over rated and not a lottery pick. Further, and much more impressive, was my fawning over Miami's Jack McClinton in that same post. He had 32 last night, and I stand by my prediction they will be one of the top 10 teams next year if they land John Wall. Durand Scott, DeQuan Jones, Wall, and McClinton would be tough.

Karma's a Bitch...
From ESPN, via Associated Press
NEW YORK -- Los Angeles Lakers center Andrew Bynum will miss eight to 12 weeks after tearing the medial collateral ligament in his right knee.
Bynum was hurt in the first quarter of Saturday night's win at Memphis. Kobe Bryant drove to the basket, missed the shot and crashed into Bynum's right leg. Bynum immediately grabbed his knee.
The 7-foot, 285-pound Bynum's injury brought back bad memories of last season for the Lakers. He went down in mid-January and was expected to be sidelined eight to 12 weeks after bruising a bone in his knee and briefly dislocating his kneecap. Instead, he missed the final 46 games of the season, as the Lakers lost in the NBA Finals.
Let this be a lesson to any recruit who might be thinking of back tracking on a commitment to UConn. Screw with Jim Calhoun and the basketball gods with ruin your life. Andrew Bynum would have won a championship with UConn in 2006, but he went pro and now his knees are made of jello. Take that you swine!

All Day
No respect, no respect at all I tell ya. That is how Vegas is treating the #1 Huskies, giving them three points tonight against Louisville. Sure, Louisville is atop the Big East standings with an undefeated conference record, and they are tough at home, but UConn is a steamroller right now. Look for AJ to frustrate a fragile Edgar Sosa and Stanley to parlay his performance against Providence into another big game. His defense will be crucial, as will Dyson's against Williams/Clark. No respect at all. I'll take this line all day.
UConn +3
UConn +3
