He flunked out of comedy school too.

He once had to repeat every grade from kindergarten to twelfth grade as well.  Crazy life that Billy Madison.

I didn't flunk out, I got kicked out LOL

I hope you didn't misunderstand, sju89.  I meant that Adam Sandler flunked out of comedy school.  The guy makes Ben Stiller look like a comic genius.  Jeez!

It has been pretty quiet on the Carlos Morris recruitment these past few weeks. He seemed pretty interested then. What about now?

As of last week, he was wide open.

I'd be really worried about Martin grabbing him sooner rather than later.  Florida is Martin's state, and he can recruit.

Team cohort Ian Baker going to Providence

shurinaCheese must be very happy.

Morgan was on the Jacksonville team that made it to the NCAA finals, losing to UCLA (I'm sure crgreen will write a short post about that game and UCLA's third-string center).  Cool story/update here:

Naw.  Sufficient to say, after Jacksonville dominated to start the game with an apparently unstoppable Artis Glmore,  Sidney Wicks begged Wooden to let him switch to guarding center, intead of PF Pembrooke Burrows.  Sid blocked four of Gilmore's next 6 shots (1 was a goal tend, but still an intimidating play) and Artis was a non-factor the rest of the way as UCLA  cruised to an 80-69 win and Title #6.  Sid was MVP with 17 pts & 18 rebs, center Steve Patterson easily won the matchup with PF Burrows, posting 17/11, and Curtis Rowe took the SF battle with 19/8.  Tho Morgan had 10 pts & 11 assists, he was still outplayed by UCLA's John Vallely, who got 15pts 7 rebs and 5 assists - Morgan fouled out trying to defend him.

Jacksonville was SUPPOSED to have dominated on the boards with their front line of 7'2 Gilmore, 7'0 Burrows, 6'10 McIntyre,  and 6'6 PG Morgan, but UCLA won that battle 50-38 with the 6'9 Patterson, 6'8 Wicks, 6'6 Rowe, and 6'3 Vallely.

Oh well, sure - what the heck....3rd string center Jon Chapman got in for 2 minutes of garbage time, missed his only shot, but did hit the stat sheet with one rebound!   

I saw the documentary about UCLA and Wooden that HBO did.  Wicks and Wooden retold the story about the defensive switch.  Real good documentary.

Trust me Moose - if you're still alive 42 years after Lavin & St. Johns win the NCAA Title game, you'll be able to recall blow-by-blow as well.

Extra nugget cr - the Final Four was played at the only on campus venue to host 2 Final Fours. 

Sidney Wicks begged Wooden to let him switch to guarding center, intead of PF Pembrooke Burrows.  Sid blocked four of Gilmore's next 6 shots (1 was a goal tend, but still an intimidating play) and Artis was a non-factor the rest of the way as UCLA  cruised to an 80-69 win and Title #6.  Sid was MVP with 17 pts & 18 rebs,

Hearing Wicks tell this story in the HBO special about UCLA was one of the best parts of the special.
