What motivation could Shaka Smart possibly have to leave Marquette for Michigan? Basketball is everything at these major non-football schools.

The decision has to be made immediately after the final game, as in this week.

If he lets Howard return and next year starts off looking like this year Manuel will have a disaster on his hands with no good options.  It has to be now.

Five months ago I fell on stairs - broke one ankle and tore a ligament in the other.  I hobbled around for a few days before going to the doc.  I was surprised to learn about the break as I was walking, but it was the fibula - smaller, less weight bearing bone.  The broken side has completely healed.  The one with the ligament has a lingering issue - actually going for a follow-up this week.

Overall, not fun.  I did discover that airport wheelchairs are a great service.

I didn't realize Devin Bush was that much of a bust.  I thought he was playing pretty well, at least at first.

I'm a NY native, now living in Connecticut. I always thought UConn was a better fit for the BIG than either Rutgers or Maryland.  2007-12 football was actually pretty good.  Not in the AAU but neither is Nebraska.

Edey is a force for sure, but I think Donovan Clingan is a better player.  I also have a feeling UConn might run Purdue off the floor.

I was referring specifically…

I was referring specifically to the use of the first name, not the physical aggression.  Personally I thought Kelce looked way too amped up and over the line.  At that point what could Reid do?  It's the last game of the year and he can't afford to be disciplining a star player in that situation - winning that game was all that mattered.  If they had lost I think this may have been looked upon  differently

Probably a difference when…

Probably a difference when you get to the professional level.  Kelce is in his 30s.  I think it's fairly common for players, especially older ones, to use the coach's first name.

Having said that I thought Kelce was a little over the top
