The bet was a push; I think that three different Dawgs had 5 turnovers.
Balanced scoring is one thing, but this was ridiculous.  The award for
the best "oh crud, I can't believe I did that" expression has to go to
UK's Jared Prickett, who actually double-dribbled in the second half; I
don't remember the last time I saw that in a Division I game.  The look
on his face said it all.....

Yeah, I don't think anyone (coaches, players, fans) was particularly 
happy with this win.  There were very few sparks on the court; it was
almost a "well, we have to play, and we have to beat you, so I guess
I'll hit a shot or two" feeling from the Cats.  Yecch.

Geez, give the guy a break!!  The guy was just pumped up.  All I have heard

I take this to mean that Dean is/has recognized some of the shortcomings
that Steve has tried to address. I also read where Derrick Phelps said
that Coach Smith had reduced the number of set plays in order to open up
the game a little and let the players relax a little more. Good call IMHO.

You obviously didn't see the same replay that I saw 30 or 40 times.  Mackey's
forearms came nowhere near Hurley's head.  If Mackey had thrown a forearm that
leveled Hurley like that, he would've and should've been thrown out of the
game, and I'm sure that at least one of the Duke players or coaches would've
had something to say about it.  If Mackey did anything that warranted the foul
call, and I still don't think it was a foul, he lifted his arms up a bit as 
Hurley hit him.

Hey, you know, I actually started to get very concerned when I turned on
the game and realized that Duke had donned their special Black Shoes of
Doom.  Last time I remember seeing the BSoD was last year's first
Michigan game, when the fellas almost totally choked.  Also, think the
team suffered something like 4 foot/ankle injuries to different players
while wearing the BSoD.  After that, the BSoD were mothballed, and I for
one didn't count on ever seeing them again.  Hmmm.

Then again, as I think every college basketball fan on the planet would
agree, if you're gonna get nailed with a "questionable" contact call,
you're about a zillion times more likely to get it outside than inside.
If Mackey makes the same play under the basket, even I would be
surprised if he got called for it.

Fair?  Nope.  Consistent?  Yep.  It does suck and every college ref in
the country is probably guilty of it.  The lesson to be learned:  One
must be careful with one's appendages outside the low post.

You know, since Bobby looks so much like Emilio Estevez now, one has to
wonder if by the time he's a senior Danny Hurley is going to look like
Charlie Sheen.

Huh?  You make it sound as if Kansas played a great game against IU
and was still only lucky to emerge the victor because IU couldn't make
a free throw.  Kansas shot very poorly, and the only player who had a
good game was Jordan.  Overall, KU did not play well at all.  Sure, IU
was partially responsible for that, but had KU lost, it would have
been because they collectively had a bad game.  (And please remember
that the game was in Indiana, and that IU had at that time 4 games
against solid competition under their belt to 1 for KU.)

"Far superior"?  Hah.  Kansas has a better backcourt, even with
Walters in a serious slump.  They are also a deeper team, even with
Ostertag out of the line-up.  Cheaney is a better player at this stage
than Hancock, but people have to give Hancock a little time.  And even
in limited minutes, Scott looked better than Henderson.  I will grant
that at this point, IU is playing better basketball than KU and
deserves to be ranked ahead of them, but they are decidedly *not* a
far superior basketball team.  (I'd also take UNC over Indiana, but
I'll let someone else advance that argument.)

        Here's something for you to add to your list.

        Some time in the 1980's I read an article that I believe was in
Reader's Digest.  It was written by an average everyday person who was not a
writer.  A summary follows:
 
        The writer said that he and his wife were driving somewhere out west
in the middle of nowhere when their car suddenly broke down.  They were about
20 to 30 miles from the nearest service station and traffic on the road was
very light.  Eventually someone came along and stopped.  The car was very nice
and when the driver got out of the car it was Bob Knight.  He took the man and
women the twenty or thirty miles to the nearest service station paid for the
parts they needed and drove them back.  The writer said that Bobby was one of
the nicest people you'd every want to meet.  The writer said he wrote the
story because there is so much negative press against Bobby, and he wanted
people to know how he nice he really was.


        There are a few other things you forgot to post.  A few years ago
their were long lines waiting for tickets to an IU game and Bobby called up
Dominos and ordered 50 large pizza's to be delivered to those in line.  I also
remember that Bobby often donates his entire earnings from his contract with
Adidas to the IU library fund.  

        Please update your list with these stories.
