Dear God, it’s Spring Break. We’re sorry. Please stop the @x#$ rain.
Yes to Vince, no to Bob Knight. It was almost believable, so most local sportscasts mentioned the possibility that Bob Knight was a candidate to become basketball coach at Western. Not gonna happen. WKU had better get Vince Taylor on board quick. Taylor’s paid […]
