Given the percentages of minority students at Duke now, I'd say
that your use of the past tense is appropriate.  I don't have the
most recent Duke alumni mag handy, but I'm sure somebody else does
and can post information from the relevant article on this topic.

I suppose you could make a case that Duke has too many white players
on their team, too, later.

   Brandon has been moved to 2G from PG, where he self-admittedly was
  uncomfortable last year (wasn't this obvious?). If Williamson doesn't work 
  out at PG, look for Hansen or one of the freshmen or JC players to replace 
  him. As of now though, Williamson will start at PG.

Stanford seats students in about ten rows of courtside bleachers.
Some students also end up sitting on either end of the court, but most
of them sit courtside.  When the students are hyped (it has to be a
_real_ good game), the home-court effect is pretty good.  Not to
mention that the first 1500 students get in free to games this year,
so we'll have even more fan support than usual for most games.  I'm

I'm glad the NCAA finally ruled with some intelligence on
any matter.  To ban these players or deem them ineligible
for any length of time would have been stupid.  But of
course, we are dealing with NCAA goofs.

As a graduate of Ohio State, I am a BIG 10 fan to the max.
The only problem with allow the Michigan players back on
the court is that not only will I have to suffer a total
drubbing at the hands of Michigan in football, but also
two similar outings in basketball.  I think Michigan and
Indiana are the two best clubs in college basketball this
year and either one will win the NCAA tourney!  Just my
two cents worth (if it's worth that much).

Subject: UMASS!!! recruiting news : An update !!!
Date: 12 Nov 92 11:20:27 GMT



I am reprinting (w/o permission) parts of an article from Massachusetts
Daily Collegian newspaper about UMASS!!! recruiting.

----

		Weeks commits to Minutemen

	Philly power forward plans to travel east to UMASS!!!


 " The University of Massachusetts basketball team is expected to receive 
letters of intent from four highly touted high school seniors during the
early signing period which opened yesterday.

   Tyrone Weeks, a 6-foot-6, 250 pound power forward from Philadelphia, 
verbally committed to Massachusetts earlier this week.....becoming the 
fourth and final recruit of the year for Coach John Calipari.

   Weeks will join 6-foot-10 center Marcus Campby of Hartford, 6-foot-2
point guard Edgar Padilla, formerly a Springfield Central standout and
6-foot-2 shooting guard Carmelo Travieso of Thayer (Braintree, Mass.)
Academy in Amherst next season. 

   Weeks, who averaged 18 points and 19 rebounds a game last season for
Philadelphia City Champion Franklin Learning Center, chose Massachusetts
over Villanova.

   "I like UMASS!!! best," Weeks said. " I like their style of play better
than Villanova, it's more up-tempo."

   Weeks is a wide-body who is considered a rebounding menace, by scouts.
   "I can bang and grab the boards," Weeks said."Scoring and defense are
also strengths."

  Letter of intent should be arriving from the other verbal commitments in
the next couple of days, giving Calipari one of the better recruiting classes
in basketball. Massachusetts has now filled all four of it's scholarship slots
but one more top prep may still arrive.

  Jamal Jackson, a 6-foot-5 slasher from East Boston High School, is expected
to apply on his own (no scholarship) to UMASS!!! and, if accepted, could
possibly join the team as a walk-on.

  Jackson is considered an athletic talent but an academic risk by many, 
which has forced most coaches to shy away from recruiting him despite his 
being labeled one of the top 15 preps in the country.

So, since I don't see much mention of Tennessee anywhere (nor much about
the SEC in general), I thought I'd provide a little Vol news.

The main story is that Wade Houston just kicked Steve Rivers (Doc Rivers'
cousin, and perhaps the best defensive player on the team) off the team
for undisclosed team rules violations.  If anyone remembers, (or cares), 
Rivers and Carlus Groves were suspended for most of the beginning of the
season last year for more undisclosed violations.  That combined with 
Orlando Berry and Corey Allen's run-in with the law concerning shoplifting
at Kmart probably coerced Houston to take a tough stand discipline-wise.
I believe Berry & Allen's problems last year did affect the team -- they 
were on a good streak until then, and were never quite the same afterwards.

Berry wasn't offered a scholarship for his senior year -- again more 
discipline from Houston, which is a pity, considering he would have
been the only proven point guard on the team -- he was a one-man press-breaker
who gave Kentucky fits last year (at least in Knoxville).

So the point guard spot is open, and will likely go to one of
Jermaine Brown (Kentucky's Mr. Basketball two years ago), Chris
Brand (a sophomore from Indiana), and LaMarcus Golden (a highly 
touted freshman from Memphis with serious basketball connections -- 
something like being Anfernee Hardaway's cousin, and dating Larry 
Finch's daughter).  Golden will probably win out by mid-season -- he's
6'4" and has impressed everyone who's seen him thus far.

The center spot is also open, and pretty weak.  Gannon Goodson -- a
junior banger probably has the inside track, simply from experience.
6'11" Shun Sheffield and Alonzo Johnson will also be battling Goodson,
along with 7' freshman Steve Hamer.  I'd be happy to see one of them 
take charge.  Supposedly Johnson has really bulked up over the summer.

Otherwise, it will be the same as last year -- Allan Houston at small
forward/off guard.  Lang Wiseman at off guard and maybe some point.
Corey Allen and Carlus Groves banging in the point.  All are seniors, 
so hopefully Tennessee will get some of the consistency that they 
lacked last year.  

Darryl Milson and (?) Whitted will also be playing this year -- both 
missed pretty much all of last year for health reasons, I believe.

I can't give too much other news, because I don't know much else -- 
more as the season starts (with Rutgers at the preseason NIT).
