~UK's Skal Labissiere: 2 pts., 2 reebs, in 16 minutes vs. Illinois State--not fouled up, no indication of sickness or injury, just a big no show. Cal has Marcus Lee to fall back on, but not much after that.
~UK's Ulis out with a hyperextended elbow: yo, Gianni, welcome injury city with a medium stack.
~Still More UK: Don't cry for me, Lexingtina...
It won't be greasy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a coach you once knew
Although he's dressed up to the nines
All short and long treys with you
I had to let it happen, they made me change
Couldn't stay all my life on a long stack
Looking up at World Wide, staying out of CAA's way
So I chose freedom
Running again, trying Labissiere
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Don't cry for me Lexingtina
The truth is I never shaft you
All through my title-less years
My bad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
And as for investigators, and as for shame
I never invited them in
Though it seems to the world they were all I desired
You have delusions
They're not the solutions I promised they'd be
The answer was here all the time
I love bones and hope you give more to me
Don't cry for me Lexingtina
Don't cry for me Lexingtina
The truth is I never shafted you
All through my title-less years
My bad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
Have I hustled too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do is look at me
To know that every word is true
Don't cry for me Lexingtina
~Final UK Add: Wildcats shot 16% from trey vs. Illinois State. Another anecdotal case suggesting rising volatility in trey balling this season. Calling @Jesse-Newell!!!! Give KenPom a call and ask him to run stats on three point shooting volatility.
~LSU: d'Bayou Bengals can't d'buy a d'beignet, much less a d'W, cher, right now, despite having apparently this d'season's best OAD in d'Ben Simmons.
~Aggravated DUI 4 Ex-DUKIE DUHON: Marshall Assistant Coach Chris Duhon got an aggravated DUI, a stiffer penalty than a DUI, and got suspended. Here are 4 possible categories of aggravated DUI.
Aggravated Based on BAC
In some jurisdictions, a BAC that is significantly higher than the legal limit of 0.08 percent may result in an aggravated DUI. The exact BAC that triggers an aggravated DUI varies depending on state law, but generally ranges from 0.15 percent on up.
Aggravated Based on Prior Offenses
Depending on the jurisdiction, an aggravated DUI may be charged when the driver has been convicted of prior DUIs. Some states are more lenient than others, but the general range is two or more prior offenses in the last three to 12 years.
Aggravated Based on Concurrent Charges
An aggravated DUI can also be based on the driver committing multiple infractions simultaneously. This may involve any number of moving violations such as failure to signal, failure to maintain a single lane of travel or failure to stop. The concurrent charges could also be as simple as driving with no insurance or driving with a suspended, revoked or otherwise invalid license.
Aggravated Based on Accident
An accident that results in injury or death may be charged as an aggravated DUI in some jurisdictions. The injuries may be to passengers, bystanders or another driver.
Aggravated Based on Presence of Minor(s)
An aggravated DUI based on the presence of minors may involve a number of scenarios. In some jurisdictions, driving while under the influence in a school zone, regardless of the speed involved, can result in an aggravated DUI. In most, the presence of a minor in the vehicle will trigger the higher charge; this includes operating a school bus.
No word found on which category may have applied to Duhon.
~After Black Monday, only 9 ESPN Top 100 recruits, plus 5-star Thon Maker, remain to be signed.
~Wow, Colorado's Tory Miller apparently took Coach Tad Boyle's exhortations to scratch, and bite and give it every thing the guys had a little too literally. In a scramble on the floor for a 50/50 ball, Miller literally bit the shoulder of an Air Force player. Watch this. Not quite Mike Tyson/Evander Holyfield stuff, but still more than a love nibble.

~Never forget the NCAA's Short-Handed Rule:
Rule 3, Section 2, Article 2 of the NCAA rulebook states "each team may continue to play with fewer than five players when all other squad members are not eligible or able to play." Article 3 continues, "when there is only one player participating for a team, that team shall forfeit unless the referee believes that both teams have an opportunity to win."
