Not sure what it takes to get a coach pissed enough to throw the entire team out but I immediately thought of Saul's relationship with Miles. Interesting situation. Surely more details will follow.

When we played them in Hawaii they looked decent. Notsomuch the last few weeks.

Maybe the players replaced all his clothes with the horrible sweater he wore today and that's why he tossed them out.

According to USAT, the locker room also has big screen TVs and a smoothie bar: http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/02/nebraska-basketball-coach...

Miles looks like a Horse Jockey in that sweater.

As for locker rooms, I can't imagine a nicer one than Kentucky:

kentucky is awful nice but Ok State and Nebraska are not far behind. Saw a pregame tour on Creighton's that is nice as well. Interesting that all current creighton pros have a locker in the room so that they know they are welcome anytime....

You can do your own tours on Youtube

That's an idea there....a locker for "visiting" grads that still play pro ball.

Which is why the University of Kentucky was established around 200 years ago.

Well if you believe in sports at the collegiate level, the money has to come from somewhere if you don't want that coming from the academic budget.

I'm not sure that I follow your logic. What does the age of the university have to do with one and dones making a lot of money for the school.

However, the history of UK is one of the most convoluted in the history of American higher education. Take a look:

College sports in its purist form shouldn't be a money-making venture. IMO, I'd much rather have some support from student fees or the academic budget than some football factory generating $100M dollars. Those schools have completely lost sight of perspective and I have zero interest in watching a quasi-professional team under the guise of being "student" athletes.

Honestly I have to agree with you about perspective in college sports, but there's also a side of me that says these programs are paying for hundreds of athletes getting a free ride in college, providing entertainment for all students who want it, building school loyalty, etc. without having to charge the students for that like at Ohio. I just wish that athletics at Ohio could support itself without all the student fees. Just one of my own hang ups I suppose.
