John,
Thanks as always for the blog. A heads up – the link on this post to a Pilgrim story actually goes to a Patterson story.
I hope we continue to recruit kids with the class of Patrick Patterson and Jodie Meeks. Other than being winners, these two guys have represented Kentucky very well. Both are classy kids and both sound like they are going to graduate.
I want to win as much as anyone does, but it is my hope that the program keeps getting kids that have this level of class. That is what really counts.
