    Chris Alexander

    What was the story with this guy? He left after one season ('02-03) and is in the D-League right now. I seem to remember some hijinx, but I don't know what.

    Has anyone ever played funnel ball?

    Update: a video of the most fun ever had on a funnel ball hoop. I don't even know why I thought of it, but I just remember thinking how funnel ball hoops were such a waste of playground space. I don't even think there are any official rules. I think someone just throws it in, and whoever...

    Has anyone ever played funnel ball?

    I have never - not once - seen someone play funnel ball. I google-searched funnel ball, and I couldn't find pictures of anyone playing funnel ball, except for kids from other countries and advertisements. If you don't even know what game I'm talking about, I'd understand. But I guess...

    Cael is going to make changes

    You're right: he doesn't go negative to the media usually. But they really hadn't looked bad until last weekend. He said he thought the team wrestled "fairly well" at Midlands, but that they weren't turning six-point decisions into eight-point majors. Before the season started he told me...

    Cael is going to make changes

    This is a common misnomer: Cyler was coming to wrestle here, and Cael had absolutely no intention of leaving. I've heard him say that - I'm not sure the setting. Coach Douglas was planning on retiring by the end of last year at least - according to Jamie Pollard, anyway. Regardless, he was...

    Cael is going to make changes

    I'm not going to get into to much commentary here, because it compromises my positions as a journalist to some degree. But here are a few points to consider: -He is 29 years old and has been a head coach for three years. As an assistant coach, his role was deferential to his college coach and...

    Cael is going to make changes

    In today's weekly press conference, Cael Sanderson was not pleased. Sunday's third-place wasn't the reason. He said the half of the team didn't fight. Here is the story I wrote for the Iowa State Daily about it: I will post a transcript a little later. Also, here is a brief on how Duke...

    I'm pretty sure we will... but I still kind of wanted to see that graphic in print. We could probably spread it out over two pages and make it a commerative poster.

    Great Ben Bruns Blog

    Someone made my point. Bruns' employer dictates the tone of what he can say. Another point - a guy like Paul Clark can't burn bridges. I don't know what kind of relationships he had with the coaching staff, but a lot of his recruiting information requires sources, presumably including several...
