So remember, read these and then consider yourself more in the know as a result. Plus, make sure to leave the poor sick monkeys alone, they’ve got more problems than Utah State’s strength of schedule (172).

[ Some interesting notes from A Sea of Blue on Kentucky's lackluster contest against Vanderbilt on Wednesday,

"In his last 47 minutes played, Michael Porter has committed nine turnovers, and dished out three assists (he had four turnovers in only 15 minutes of action against Vandy).”

“From 14:54 to 13:52 of the first half, Kentucky was whistled for FOUR fouls -- From the 14:52 to 14:21 mark of the second half, UK was again called for FOUR fouls: 1:03 of clock-time = Eight UK fouls"]

[The Michigan Wolverines are now firmly back on the bubble thanks to a thorough thrashing of the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Thursday evening, a squad going in the wrong direction (in midst of losing 4 of 5). Michigan put up 74 big ones despite only 8 points in 22 minutes from Manny Harris]

[Todd Bozeman currently is the head coach for the MEAC's first place team Morgan State (11-2). Todd has been around the block. He was once regarded as one of America's hot young coaching minds--in 1993 he led the Cal Bears (Jason Kidd) to an upset over Duke in the 2nd round but 3 years later found himself virtually banned from coaching for 10 seasons because he committed a major NCAA no-no. Now coach Bozeman is in the process of turning Morgan State around and in his spare time he dabbles in the blogosphere at Blogging with Doze]

[I don't know what exactly I was thinking at the time, but whatever intuition was seeping throughout my noggin during a muggy day in July certainly wasn't the ideal grade it needed to be]
