DISQUS

"Just shake people’s hands. It’s not a huge deal, but it’s a class thing that most people would expect out of a Division 1 head coach. His assistants do it. His players do it. He should do it too."

I'm pretty sure I saw someone write that the assistants similarly did not shake the IU players' hands, but I did not see for myself whether that was true or not. Can anyone confirm or deny?

LBJ . . . Lady Bird Johnson?

Does this mean that Pownce will get updated to work with AIR beta 2 now?

"I read another coach saying to follow all of the rules it would take a personal assistant"

Uh, isn't that what the compliance office is for?

I'm actually in the camp of thinking this is being a bit overblown, but making calls from home and not logging calls? If we were talking about some obscure, vague, difficult-to-comply-with rule then I might think differently, but as a recruiter in college basketball these particular rules don't fall in that category.

I am bothered by the thought that Sampson would lie about the 3-way calls . . . why would he do that? He would have to know that the details of the report would come out . . . it's like telling your parents you got an "A" in Algebra when you not only know you got a "F", but that parent-teacher conferences are next week and you know the Algebra teacher is going to *mention* that you're failing his class!

I hope some member of the media is willing to stand up and risk access to the program by asking hard questions . . . and continuing to ask them until they get answered.

Team first--whatever they need. Love his attitude.

Would you ask DeAndre Thomas what adjustments he may have to make on his game if he's going to be playing, what, 60+ pounds lighter than last season?

Is it just me or is anyone else getting tired of entering a ton of information from scratch?? I feel like I'm re-entering my life in all different aspects all the time these days--events, music, movies, friends, pictures, written content. When the "next big thing" in social networking after Facebook comes along, I'll be re-entering this same data, or similar data, all over again! I get all my crap put up into Google Calendar, but now I want to share that same information over Facebook, or Pownce, or wherever, and import/export tools are *way too few and far between*. Christ I know that makes me seem like an old fogey for complainin', but this is gettin' ridiculous. I'm a person, not a data entry robot! Must I be left behind from the social network revolution??

Does the facebook plug-in leverage your iLike.com music selections and preferences? I read something that said it's not here but it's coming, or something. I'm not interested in re-entering all that data.

Can anyone recommend an easy-to-use SSH setup for Linux? I've got a Mandriva Linux running on a secondary box (I do very little or nothing with it most of the time) and wouldn't mind at all setting it up to run SSH. I did set my main windows box up to run SSH and I set up a tunnel that way, but I never got it working on Linux. I think one of my problems was figuring out how to configure users for Linux SSH, but a full-on, easy-to-use SSH server setup guide for Linux would be super-helpful (and one for Mandriva extra-helpful). So far I haven't been able to find one.

I am only disappointed that you have given UK regulators more ideas for regulating in your blog entry.
