No program epitomizes mental and physical toughness like Houston. Such an impressive comeback against an incredibly talented Duke squad. The Cougars still have only one loss in regulation this season ... in Game 2 against Auburn nearly 5 months ago.

Whistle didn’t go their way at all late. Most other coaches wouldn’t have handled it as well as Collins did.

So many things working against West Virginia (travel delays, playing w/o two of its top 3 scorers, and doing so at Allen Fieldhouse), but this gritty Mountaineer squad holds off Kansas for their first-ever win at the Phog. Long way to go, but I gave this team no shot to Dance in the preseason.

… knowing he was running ASAP during the next at-bat ... and how upset I would be when Parrish threw him out, and then I couldn't sleep until he came up again, hoping he would get revenge.

Why the Tigers? Because Lance Parrish was his nemesis ... and I can still remember the nervousness I had when he'd walk or single …

I figure there is no better occasion for my first Bluesky posts than to honor my sports hero, Rickey Henderson.

I have so many memories I have, but one from when I was living in Erie, PA between 2nd and 5th grade.

Yikes.
