March Madness
So much for my March Madness bracket, thanks to Duke losing to West Virginia in the second round.
Growing up in Texas and now living in Mississippi I know there are a lot of quality southern teams I should be rooting for, but, I have been a Duke fan for 20 …

DOJ and College Football
Barack Obama says we need a college football playoff. Rep Neil Abercrombie wants to get the DOJ involved: Seizing on Obama’s public support of a new system, Abercrombie wrote a letter to the president-elect last month urging him to have the Department of Justice investigate the issue. “With the prestige of the Presidency and vigorous pursuit by the Department of Justice in support of fairness and equity, we are certain the BCS will be persuaded to resolve the issues to the benefit of the na
Monopoly Alert: ESPN Now Wants March Madness
It’s probably not the biggest shock in the world, but ESPN really wants the NCAA men’s basketball tournament rights. You can’t blame them; it’s one of the most-watched TV spectacles every year, it stretches across three weeks and draws viewers & advertisers like nothing else outside of the Super Bowl. Still, CBS has owned the rights to the annual hoops escapade for so long that it’s hard to imagine a cable network breaking in to steal it away. (And the 2018 Final Four goes to, drum roll

Concert Tickets
*Advertisement* You might already know that I like music. And when I have some spare time I always want to go to concerts, to see my favorite artists live. But I don’t always have the time to shop for tickets or to browse the internet searching for a place to buy them. I recently discovered Ticket Feeder, a great website that offers Concert Tickets. The great thing is that they provide tickets for premium events or even for sold out events! That is great because almost every time I decide to
App v. App: Sportacular and SportsTap
Ahh, sports. The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat. If you are old enough, you probably remember the “agony of defeat” guy - painful on more than one level (for him, and for you if you are old enough to know what I’m talking about). I love me some sports, and thankfully there are some great sports apps for the iPhone. Two of my favorites are freebies - Sportacular and SportsTap. Which one has the edge? Who comes out on top as being more competitive and “sportier?” Who hits the shot at t
Marlon Brown, Grandma Really Like Kiffin
Harding Academy WR Marlon Brown Make no mistake, the recruitment of Harding Academy’s Marlon Brown goes beyond his football ability. The 6-5, 210-pound wide receiver is a solid basketball player too, and the schools pursuing him know he’d like to play both sports at the collegiate level. This past Monday night, Lane Kiffin, the Tennessee Volunteers new head football coach, paid a visit to Brown before his Harding Academy team took on Lausanne. Everyone supporting the Florida Gators, Georgi
An Interview with ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla
The college basketball season is barely three weeks old, so we thought we’d get early impressions from a man who has criss-crossed the country already announcing games: ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla. The coach-turned-analyst (Manhattan, St. John’s, New Mexico) talks about what he’s seen so far, the recruiting game, getting lured back into coaching, and his lack of “schtick.” Q: You must have called 15 games in the last two weeks. We’d love to hear about your November travels. How many frequent flier
Game Notes: Old Spice Classic, Part 2
by Kelvin Powell The Gonzaga Zags traveled the furthest distance of any team in this year’s Old Spice Classic. While the Zags captured the title, they also captured a new fan base. For years, the once-overachievers were considered the NCAA tournament’s Cinderella team. Well, Cinderella delivered her slippers back to Walt Disney’s World. If you still don’t think the Zags have arrived, just read what Tennessee Coach Bruce Pearl had to say about the team: “I think you’ll see teams in November l
Good Morning Hoops Nation: December 3
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Tonight I'll be making my first visit to Missouri State's brand new JQH Arena, which was just christened within the month. I've been really excited about this for a couple weeks now, for a few reasons. I like shiny new things as much as any American, but most of all I'm curious about them when it comes to college basketball at this level. I'm wondering if there's any nostalgia for the old place still present, or if it's been discarded in fans' memories the same way the dire
Florida stay perfect against FAMU, Donovan wins No. 291 as Gators’ coach
Gator Sports Nation Billy Donovan is just nine wins away from his 300th victory as head coach of the Florida men’s basketball team. Win No. 291 came last night against a Florida A&M team that has never defeated the Gators. Florida (6-1) handed the Rattlers a 73-58 loss at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center to move to 10-0 all time against A&M. Sophomore Nick Calathes scored a game-high 16 points and dished out 7 assists. Teammate and fellow Casselberry, Fla. Alum Chandler Parsons finis
December Is Black Womens Basketball History Month
This month, celebrate the history of African American women who were pioneers in basketball! The New York Girls, 1910. We all know many of today’s female basketball stars from the W.N.B.A., the N.C.A.A., and the Olympics. But where did it all begin? A great place to start is by recognizing the very first all-black female basketball team — the New York Girls (1910-1914), champions of New York and New Jersey in 1910! There were dozens of other early African American women’s teams, in
Rose Helps Fuel Revival in Chicago and Points Further East
The Chicago Bulls, at 8-10, remain a work in progress. But Chicago native Derrick Rose, the top pick in the draft, is at age 20 a fully formed NBA star. He’s averaging 18.7 points a game, leading the team in assists (5.8 per game) and shooting percentage (49%) and grabbing 4.2 rebounds per game. And he’s helping to fuel the resurgence of the NBA’s Eastern Conference, which has won 59% of games against the West; just two East teams have losing records against the West.
