Andrew Wiggins, incoming Kansas Jayhawks freshman, is in a position where he is going to leave the program an utter, disgusting and heart crushing disappointment. Yes, that is factually correct. Despite what all the recruiting websites told you, no matter how many times Dick Vitale‘s face has turned purple while talking about him, you can [...]
Everything that goes on in the realm of college sports is treated like a business except how the players are dealt with. Why? Well, there has been a long standing argument by the NCAA that has to deal with upholding some wildly ineffective meaning of the word amateurism. Universities have so much power at their [...]
Kevin Ollie certainly did better than most people projected in his first year with the Connecticut Huskies. Ollie not only had to deal with some sanctions left for him to handle, but the daunting task of replacing the legend that is Jim Calhoun. By all accounts, however, Ollie did so well that most sane people [...]
Does it sicken me that we have to worry about the thoughts trotting through a 17-year-old’s cranium? You bet. Still, that does not stop you or I from caring about where some kid is going to take his talents — even if it isn’t for a few years down the road. If programs are going [...]

We often focus on the negative side of sports. Not just the stuff regarding the lack of arc on a guy’s jumper or a player being an overall disappointment, but stories discussing arrests and coaches misbehaving. The likes of these also get plenty of pub on the mean streets of Twitter as well as the [...]

I suppose people who are in charge of putting together schedules do not really care about such trivial things like my entertainment. Sometimes, in all fairness, games have to [...]
The Georgia Bulldogs saw it coming for a couple of weeks, but that does not make the loss any easier to swallow.
