OPEN SHOT: TGIF quickies

Its kind of amusing, but ESPN has an article where President Ransdell and AD Wood Selig at WKU made an announcement that Bob Knight is not a candidate for coach at WKU.  Apparently there were rumors that he was spotted in the area...  How amazing would that be to have Bobby Knight coaching in Bowling Green?  Heh heh.

He got in for a few minutes in the NACB. Bricked a 3 pretty bad. Hopefully he gets some more minutes.

ON A BIG 3 for Josh Duncan. Pushed National's lead back to 10.

Seeing him wear #20. Hope he finishes out the game. Only 5 minutes left.

Petino gave a really nice eulogy for Mr Bill- you should check it out:

I was hoping no one else would notice Harrellson. It looks like that hope has gone down the toilet. I am sure Ohio St. and IU will make a big push to sign this kid--Time to put it into overdrive Clyde. Everything I've read about Harrellson makes me think he will contribute next year, wherever he lands.

Bill Self's "attorney" sure talks like an agent. Perhaps he thinks calling himself his attorney carries a less negative connotation than being his agent. Whatever he is, it sure reads as if Self may be interested. I have to admit, I was unaware that Self played and coached at OSU (I believe Leonard Hamilton was the Cowboys head coach during Self's tenure there). If he isn't interested he needs to fire his attorney/agent for leaving the door so wide open for the possiblity that he could leave KU.

Seth Davis once again re-proves the fact that he is a world class moron who is lucky to have any job, much less a cushy position where accountability is a foreign concept.

Rick Pitino--All of the chatter over the Internet(as well as John Clay's column) about UK fans easing up on Pitino has made me feel very conflicted. Is it time to let it go? Has time healed all wounds? Can I make myself think like Bill Keightley? Does Pitino's kind words about Keightley soften me to Rick's traitorous decision to coach the sworn enemy?

I just don't know. Keightley was able to look beyond Rick's employer because he had a very close, personal relationship with him. I had no such relationship. Plus, Keightley was a much better person than I have ever even thought about being.

I don't really hate Pitino anyway, I just hope he loses every game he coaches by 50 points. I guess if that makes me a bad person, or a grudge holder, then so be it.

This Final Four should be entertaining as hell. Well, as entertaining as a Final Four can be that doesn't include UK.
