Big Blue Links for Tuesday:
- Jerry Tipton of the Herald-Leader writes on the Cancun court: “The gym, which seats about 1,200, has chandeliers. Counter-balancing that touch of class is an imported floor that the players noticed had cracks and bends.“
- Tipton also reports that the Cats are bonding in Cancun: “Kentucky accomplished the goal of turning off the academic switch simply by taking off on the chartered flight. By contrast, basketball objectives remain turned on and humming with importance.”
- Elton Alexander of the Cleveland Plain Dealer writes about the point guard matchup today: “But Tuesday night in Cancun, Mexico, Wall will face the toughest matchup he has seen so far in Cleveland State point guard Norris Cole. The junior is coming off 38- and 24-point performances as CSU has won three straight after an opening loss at St. Bonaventure.” (Hat tip to Bluegrass State Basketball.)
- Matt Scott of The Shiver says that UK is looking at Justin Coleman: “It has been previously reported that Coleman considers Kansas, Kentucky, and UCONN as his leaders. According to Coleman, that’s not the case, and he’s still waiting on those three schools to extend a scholarship offer.” (Hat tip to Aaron’s UK Basketball Blog.)
