Idle thoughts and musings from the couch:
- CBS hyped the event and ticket scalpers on Washington Road were getting twice the expected amount for badges to today's Masters session. Alas, a hoped-for charge from Tiger Woods isn't materializing and the Masters championship is being fought for by guys named Choi and McIlroy.
- Is Josh Selby staying or is he going? Selby's tweets indicate a desire to have great workouts in Vegas yet he also tweeted Stan Simpson, the juco center Kansas is recruiting. If I were a betting man, I'd say Selby wants to go but his contact with Simpson indicates a possibility that he'll come back.
- Mike Alden's been a busy man over in Columbia, MO. Alden signed a new basketball coach this week and gave his football coach a contract extension.
- One could make the argument that with most sports events, the couch is a great place to catch the action. Not so The Masters--this is an event which is best experienced live and in living color. The TV also doesn't adequately capture the up-and-down geography of Augusta National Golf Club. Now, about getting a ticket to the tournament...
- Can you imagine The Masters--or any golf tournament for that matter--being called by guys like Kevin Harlan, Gus Johnson, Bill Raftery and Marv Albert? Now, that would be fun.
- Whatever happened to the Frank Martin to Miami rumors?
- A new name has popped up for those who follow Kansas basketball recruiting--SG Trevor Lacey. Lacey is a Parade All-American, the 35th ranked player in this class, and is considering KU, Alabama, Auburn, Connecticut and Kentucky.
