Congratulations to UK linebacker Danny Trevathan for being named to the 2011 Chuck Bednarik Award list. This is a big honor for Trevathan and the Kentucky Wildcats' much-maligned defensive unit.
Now, for the news:
-
Calipari says Anthony Davis has to be on the floor.
And that's that. -
Duke making a serious move on Perry Ellils.
Oooh, a showdown! - The NBPA has been preparing the players for this lockout for years.
-
John Adams of GoVolsExtra adopts the Calipari model of secession, but omits the other three conferences.
Secessionist rhetoric is intellectually unserious, whether it is Calipari or Adams. College presidents are never going to go for it in sufficient numbers. -
Will Lyles was also paid by LSU for "recruiting services."
Just how deep does this rabbit hole go? Via John Clay.
-
Former Vanderbilt player Andre Walker lands at Xavier.
A one-year transfer? You don't see that very often, but this could be right place-right time for Walker. -
Shane Battier asks NBPA prez Billy Hunter would accept a $1 salary during the lockout like the NFL's DeMaurice Smith.
Hunter was apparently offended at the very idea. Interesting ... -
Muhammad #1, can Calipari land him?
Well, he'll have a lot of competition. - Chuck Hayes gives us a blast from the past.
-
Well, this kid looks fine against players half his size.
Wonder how tall he'll get by the time he's a senior? -
Wiltjer will not be an afterthought when the season begins.
This kid has all kinds of game, and even though he isn't really a one and done prospect, he will be playing in the NBA some day. - Coleman is going to be tough, but I think Calipari can land him.
-
Brandon Knight likely to return to school during the lockout.
John Wall seems to be coming back to the Bluegrass during the lockout as well. -
John Wall scores 41 points in Goodman League debut.
He's pretty tough, that John Wall. -
Randall Cobb Is Already Giving Back
Lockout or not, Cobb understands how fortunate his situation is, and he wants to show others how to follow his path.
-
Kentucky recruiting 2013 stud Chris Walker "best and hardest."
I like the sound of that. -
Just what we need -- another "racket."
Well, AAU ball is hardly worthy of a ton of praise, but why should we be surprised when football follows suit? - Tiger Woods to skip British Open. Golf world yawns.
- It certainly isn't right that current players should be negotiating for retired players without their okay.
-
Playing for John Calipari increases chance Brandon Knight could out-perform expectations " PistonPowered
Sort of speaks for itself. -
Doron Lamb working "a lot harder" this year than last.
And he hasn't forgotten the UConn game. -
Leach Report review for Tuesday.
Lots of talk about Ken's Mount Rushmore post. -
DaJuan Coleman Down To Two?
Well, I never put much stock in what recruits say, but Caliapri has made this guy a priority. That's always bad for the other teams recruiting him.
