    Cooley has received an extension and a raise.
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    Jeeze, looks like all kinds of former players are getting chances at schools, Stackhouse at Vandy, Penny at Memphis, interesting to see really.

    There was an interesting article on ESPN.com about the playing careers of all 68 coaches in the NCAA Tournament. Bottom line: most good coaches were kind of shitty players.

    Most likely the shitty players have a chip on their shoulder and are still trying to reach the top. Those that reached the top probably have lost the edge. I could be wrong but probably not far off.

    Damn 10?? Patrick Ewing, Danny Manning, Penny Hardaway are the only ones I can think of off the top of the head.

    EDIT: Dan Majerle too

    Or spent enough time on the bench that they picked up a thing or two.
