Pony Exce$$ 2: The Electric Boogaloo
Okay, not quite. This time, it's SMU Men's Basketball and academic improprieties.
Nik Stauskas on the trading block?
There a is story on ESPN that Kings want to "dump" Nik. Kings is not the best situation for him (he is averaging less than 4 points a game) as he is not used to coming off the bench, and his minutes have remained low. I hope he lands at a place where he can start and gain his mojo back.

Brent Petway feature
Over at UMHoops today they had a feature summarizing the progress of former Michigan basketball players in the NBA. (link)
That got me thinking about other former players who are playing professionally in other leagues. While pondering the creation of a Diary to summarize these guys I started my search at www.euroleague.net and on the front page there is a special feature on Brent Petway. It is mostly fluff, but as a former fan favorite and it being a slow sports day I thought I'd post it here:

If anyone else was as sick as i was yesterday heres something to get your mind off it. For those who missed the game it was a great comeback. This team is playing much better as a team and they are finding ways to get points inside when the outside shot isnt falling. Enjoy BEAT OHIO!!!
