Today's Outside the Lines (at 12pmPT/3pmET) on ESPN, deals takes a historical look at bigoted comments in the media, looking back from the Imus/Rutgers situation... OTL also looks at the practice of having football recruits enroll early, before even their high school senior year is over. For example at Florida, 8 out of 16 of Urban Meyer's incoming freshman recruits are already enrolled in school (yes it's April 13!)
Well okay, there are some new news trickling in. Oregon State's Marcel Jones will declare for the NBA draft but won't hire an agent. Also declaring is DePaul's Wilson Chandler. It's unclear whether he'll sign with an agent.
On the coaching carousel site, Wichita State is focusing on Winthrop's Greg Marshall. If I was Wichita State I would be looking for a backup coach at the same time because we know what Marshall did the last time he decided to change jobs (He went back to Winthrop!)... Meanwhile UMKC will hire a John Beilein 10-year assistant.
On the transferology front, promising freshman forward Joe Trapani is set to transfer out of Vermont. He says the transfer is not for basketball reasons. I'm sure there will be a long line of coaches offering him scholarships. Want to know who might be interested? Check which schools are having other transfers out, you may find his next destination that way :-)
