  • This speaks for itself - Davis and Wall dominating. [Hank] Via KSR

  • John Calipari and Rick Pitino are mining Sin City for recruiting gold this week.

  • KSR's Brian the Intern examines the comparative popularity of Rick Pitino and John Calipari at Kentucky. I think, honestly, that Calipari is slightly less popular, because he has essentially all the same negatives as Pitino (Yankee, etc.) and he has significantly more controversy in his history. But if he wins another title and keeps up his squeaky-clean performance intact, that could change dramatically with another championship run.
  • Andy Glockner reports on the doings in Las Vegas, and UK recruits are mentioned very prominently, particularly Emmanuel Mudiay.
  • Justice Winslow cuts his list, but Kentucky remains there, plus more recruiting news from NextCats.
  • Dakari Johnson likes "rebounding" and "banging down low." I like hearing that.
  • Anthony Davis invents a new basketball move -- cuffing an alley-oop.
