No, but two months ago they'd have Archie Miller, so everyone will be watching what he does at IU. Which is really unfair to Holtmann.

Also, I really wonder what the pitch was to Donovan, IF there was a pitch, and what stopped him.

In totally different NCAA news:
#1 Oregon State's ace pitcher outed as sex offender.

He apparently molested a 6 year old girl.

I recently had a debate on FB with a militant black friend about people still hating on Vick versus Eric Trump hunting (I know, I know, but he stupidly tried to make that comparison.). I want to see how this plays out. Is this kid's career over before it starts? Who the hell wants a child molester on their team?

This is about as bad as crimes go, imho. But he was 15 at the time... I just don't know. Ugh. On the other hand, his college should still be safe since everyone there is way too old for him.

I laughed.

But the school got hit a little harder
It's unclear if Louisville will keep its 2012-13 national championship after the committee issued "a vacation of basketball records in which student-athletes competed while ineligible from December 2010 and July 2014." The NCAA said the school must provide a list of games impacted by the decision within 45 days.

Chuck Smrt, the former NCAA enforcement director who is now leading Louisville's defense against the committee's charges, said 108 regular-season games and 15 NCAA tournament wins could be vacated as a result of the NCAA's decision, but he reiterated the school's plans to appeal.

There's a lot of "ifs" regarding their punishment. Let's see how it shakes out. They should absolutely lose their title for running a whore house on campus.

As for Pitino, not coaching for 5 games just seems lame.

I disagree with the former, and agree with the latter.

Ole Miss has been caught red handed cheating while recruiting football players, so while an NCAA investigation and punishment is looming, what do they do?

Offer Justin Bieber a scholarship for giggles.

I hope the football gods bring down the hammer upon Ole Miss for this one.

This story is amazing. Vanderbilt football players get shot trying to recover a cell phone.

They're ok, but they brought a fake gun to a real gun fight.

Calipari wants to go to the Knicks?

Posting this here because this is a college story at the moment.
