Friday Recap

Sad news in the world of women's basketball. 28yo Maggie Dixon, HC of the women's Army team died last night from heart arrythmia :-(

Josh Boone declares for the Draft but will not sign with an agent. Fazekas of Nevada does too.

Lehigh of the last "amateur" league forfeits 13 games from the 04-05 season for using an ineligible player. The issue at hand was transfer credits from High Point to Lehigh for a transfer player.

New Jobs! Mike Davis as expected goes to UAB with big fan-fare ($600K to $1million per year), Gonzo (Bobby Gonzalez) finally and rightfully gets his chance at one of the big three NYC/NJ schools (Seton Hall), and Gary Waters downgrades from the Big East to Cleveland State. Meanwhile Painter gets an additional rollover year @ Purdue.

SMU (of Dallas) is now open. Coach Tubbs was fired over alleged NCAA violations. Not doing well scoreboard-wise probably didn't help either. A new AD is coming in soon as well.

Repeat! Repeat! That's what Florida hopes to do, with the three super-sophs announcing that they are returning. Florida was so excited they even purchased the floor they won the national championship on and are moving it to the their home court. That cost them $70,000 but I don't think anyone would mind. They are the National Champions!
