This is the latest from Coach Cal via his Twitter account regarding rumors about LeBron James being in Lexington today:

"Ok its official. The King was in the practice facility. LeBron James stopped to say hello on the way to an event in Mississippi".

I'm sure the members of the team that got to meet LeBron were very excited, as well they should be. I wonder if anyone got any pictures, and if so, were they allowed to keep them? Hee, hee......

UPDATE: Here are a couple of pictures that are attached to Coach's Twitter page.

I Met LBJ's Mom At Roundball Classic Here In 2003

Nice lady, raised her son well.

She was big on making sure he kept up with academics in HS days.

Lebron

overall has done a very good job in the role model dept.

His pregame antics and his refusal to shake hands after he lost really annoy me though. He even tried to justify by saying that “winners shouldnt be good losers.”

DEEETROIT BASKETBALLL!!!

Heh.

Well, he does need to learn that part.

But in general, he has done pretty well as an NBA “role model,” especially for the kid he still is. Not perfect by any means, but not bad. There is a lot more, in general, to like about him than dislike. I hope that continues to be the case.

LOL!!!

It is not worth an intelligent man’s time to be in the majority. By definition, there are already enough people to do that.

Late Thoughts:

Did WWW influence LeBron’s visit? Is there another college coach who could have pulled it off?
