Hey, when you gotta go, you gotta ... make sure no po-pos are leering anywhere nearby. But Joe Mazzulla and Dalton Pepper were not so cautious. The two received citations early Sunday morning for disorderly conduct and public urination. Hilariously humiliating. Not so funny for Bob Huggins. This is more fodder against 'Eers coach, who is being roasted in the name of raising money to fight cancer this Friday. The run-in with the ... Read More

This is the trouble Twitter will get you in if you're an athlete with a propensity for transparency. Had Marcus Jordan not tweeted away his indiscretions in Las Vegas recently, it's likely the Nevada Gaming Board Control wouldn't be on his trail, trying to deduce just how many laws, and to what degree, MJ's son broke. The sons of NBA Hall of Famer Michael Jordan charged booze tabs exceeding $50,000 to ... Read More

Hawaii in talks to join Big West; Utah State has second go-round with Mountain West. Conference chaos continues to carry on.

If only he could drop a J like he can a G. Make that 50 Gs. Michael Jordan's son + Las Vegas + 20 years old + braggadocio over thousands of dollars lost = instant news. Marcus Jordan and his brother, Jeff, both of whom will play at Central Florida this year, took a trip out to Vegas because ol' Pop was hosting his annual basketball camp. The information of Marcus' big spending spree ... Read More

UPDATE, 3:16 p.m.: The Salt Lake Tribune broke the news BYU will go independent in football and join the WAC in all other sports. Can't we all just sit tight for 10 freaking minutes? News spread far and wide, quickly, late last night as multiple reporters began writing and tweeting, quoting sources with knowledge that BYU is mulling a quick move out of the Mountain West Conference. Everyone seems to have their ... Read More

The writing always seems to be on the wall with some players.

Disclaimer: If you want my initial take on what transpired this afternoon, I posted it at The Dagger. The actions of Chicago Sun-Times writer Michael O'Brien led to a swift response from the University of Kentucky and the lawyers it keeps on retainer. The university sent a letter to O'Brien, not the Sun-Times, asking him to remove his article that had sources who claimed prized 2011 recruit Anthony Davis had not ... Read More

This is terrible news to end a weekend on. Something about car crashes and our youth that shakes me to my core. It's the unexpected of it all. You never know. The Texas A&M family and everyone related to or who knew Tobi Oyedeji personally is going through some heartache and shock. The Aggies recruit from Texas' Bellaire High School was involved in a car accident early Sunday morning, just after ... Read More

This past season one of the bigger stories of consequence that bubbled underneath the surface of everyday games was the class-action lawsuit that was filed by Ed O'Bannon last summer against the NCAA. In case you missed it, the gist: O'Bannon didn't approve of the NCAA making money of his name/likeness in the wake of his time at UCLA. So he sued. The NCAA tried to get the case thrown out, but that's ... Read More

Interesting, intriguing move, certainly. The former NFL commissioner, who's largely responsible for making that league the behemoth it is today, was brought in by the Big East as a big public power move. Officially, Tagliabue is being brought in for "future television arrangements and other priority matters." Yes, those ... other matters. Let's keep it nice and vague, shall we? That's what the Big East is doing. The release might as well say, ... Read More

Here's why it was the right decision for Singler to "chance" coming back for his senior season -- and it's got nothing to do with winning another title.

Should we expect a formal announcement on teams that will join the Big Ten by the end of this summer? It's all escalating rather quickly.

To some, this news will not come as a surprise. I've alluded to it before, but someone in the business told me this season that a large portion of New Mexico State's basketball team were a bunch of players that, frankly, needed a helping hand or two. An authority figure to put them on the right path. Read: they were bad kids who came from the wrong side of the tracks ... Read More

Who's next? SWAC? MEAC? How about the Big Sky? Something tells me it's just not quite big enough. Reasons for why the MWC has no choice to do this are inside.

It's been another year filled with expectations and a void of an NCAA Tournament appearance (most likely) for Rhody fans. After getting to 19-3 overall and holding a 7-2 record in the Atlantic 10, the Rams fell apart. They now stand at 21-8, haven't won a "must-win" game in weeks and are on the verge of another quasi-collapse. And the fans have had enough. Or so they say. The Rams fans took to, ... Read More

(UPDATE: Please give this blog a read. I know there are hundreds of cancer-recovery blogs out there, but we've got a college hoops blog theme to it. The man who is stricken with it is just 23 years old. He's a former teammate of CHJ buddy Rob Dauster of Ballin' is a Habit. A good writer and an easy read. Again: Cancer motivates people as much as it depresses those ... Read More

Here's a thought: Cousins could save those texts, hand them over to police and turn the tables on the mouthbreathers who find bigotry hilarious.

That is a picture of a man broken. I think my heart breaks for him. News coming out of Tulsa today that Sean Sutton was arrested, basically, for trying to get a hold of as many pills possible to deal with physical pain. I'm guessing that's not the only kind. "He's sick," Lee said. Sutton is suffering withdrawal symptoms from pain medication and is currently at the Stillwater City Jail, Lee said. Sutton admitted to ... Read More
