Texas Tech Football:
We have a little news on the UCLA coaching rumors, one of them involve Mike Leach and the other does not. FWST's Dwain Price had some college notes yesterday, but I missed this as Texas Tech's spokesman Chris Cook confirmed that UCLA has not contacted Texas Tech to talk with Leach:
Bruins Nation also found this on Boise State coach Chris Petersen from the LA Times:
Snip
"That's a great place," Petersen said of UCLA. "Somebody is going to do well there."
I have no idea if this is just posturing, but it doesn't sound like it is. Additionally, it doesn't sound like Texas Tech has been contacted by UCLA. I wonder how quickly UCLA is moving on this coaching search and how
Texas Tech Basketball:
LAJ's Jeff Walker writes this morning that these Red Raiders do not need to the opposition lightly. Walker points to the lack of a post game and mentions Suljagic's injury, however, I can't help but think that Suljagic's injury is the least of the teams' concerns, because I think it's the inability of the team, in particular the post players inability to create down low, to score that's the issue. Suljagic being more of a defensive player wouldn't seem to solve the problem.
DMN's Brandon George reports that Coach Knight will be back on the bench tonight.
