Around SBN: Clippers Need To Realize That Spurs Are The Anti-Grizzlies

Golden Nugz for 12-19-08

Going to be brief here today as I lament the fact that I will not be travelling to Phoenix this weekend as originally planned. And the fact that the game is on FSN North apparently? I have the BTN. I have the sports package, but I don't like i get college games on FSN East, West or whatever. I think those come via the college basketball pack. Sigh.

Louisville, by the way, held off Ole Miss last night in a close game on a neutral court.

  • The STrib's Myron Medcalf takes a look at the relationship between Rick Pitino and Tubby Smith.
  • Not surprisingly, the Arizona press is also picking up on the coaching fraternity reuinion between Tubby and Rick. Nice article from the Arizona Republic.
  • I'm kind of sick of writing about Kentucky, but Wildcats fans in a very unscientific survey preferred Pitino to Tubby. Whatever. I think they're both cool and accomplished.
  • This Kansas Jayhawks blog is saying the INsight Bowl really won't be close. "Simply put, as long as over-confidence doesn't set in, this really shouldn't be a game. I think Tim Brewster deserves a ton of respect for what he's done in a short time there, but Minnesota just isn't that good."

ASeaofBlue Poll

This is a particularly “different” kind of UK site and member base. No gutter name calling and mental mini-weights.

Some liked and some did not like Tubby at the point he turned gold but a poll there is running overwhelmingly Tubby.

I am happy for Tubby and your success thus far! Good luck. I may be wrong but I think Tubby owns Rick in head to head. If not Rick got his licks in while he had 7 NBA players on his bench and Tubby was breaking his back to build UGA.

Take care!

Changing how you think will change what you think.

Injury Updates

Grad school applications have been keeping me quite busy lately, so I haven’t been doing as much reading as usual online.

Any word on Hoffarber’s and Carter’s status for the UL game?
