Probably assumed since his brother made the jump from Xavier to a huge program like Arizona that he can make a similar climb with another couple good years at Dayton.

My best friend went to Dayton for a couple of years before transferring closer to home for ROTC...

The student houses just on the edge of campus, aka the Darkside and the Ghetto, were a collection of the best parties I have ever been to. I can only imagine how wild they would be with a Sweet 16 victory to celebrate.

we got an email a couple days ago about student/alumni parties all over the place, mainly in memphis. As for the ghetto, this was part of the scene for the cuse game. There is going to a massive crowd tomorrow night as well!

It wasn't quite that crowded when I was there partying, but it was still pretty awesome. It was just a normal weekend, and yet I think every other house had a front door open with people partying. It was like the largest block party I had been to, except with more beer and drunk college women.

haha that about sums it up

So Manhattan College head coach Steve Masiello reportedly was supposed to go to USF, but they pulled the deal after a background check showed he never graduated from Kentucky. I wonder if he's eligible to go back to Manhattan?

South Florida Bulls kill coaching deal with Steve Masiello for lying on his resume - ESPN

so does Manhattan just not to background checks or what?

So the Harrison twins are returning to Kentucky as well. They only lost Randle and Young but gain 4 more All-Americans.

The frontcourt measures in at: 7', 7', 7', 6'10", 6'9", 6'9", 6'8"....whoa.

You guys see Mitch McGary had to declare for Draft because he got a 1-year suspension for testing positive for marijuana. He's going to be a early-mid 2nd rounder most likely. Has to be annoying.

Twitter in Kentucky is insufferable right now.
