Ooooh. A round ball.

This is weird. I don't know what this sport is, with its round ball and odd looking uniforms.


Huh?

But maybe the Gamecocks can do better with a spherical bundle of leather than with an oblong one.

I'll admit now that I will not be able to be as thorough with basketball as with football. I grew up an SEC fan, and nobody in the conference really cared about it until Florida won eight straight national titles, or something like that. So I don't understand the intricacies of the game, though I'm past the point where, as a child, I thought it was a bit boring.

There is a good story in The State about Michael Holmes.

With a player like him, Dave Odom might be able to dream about another NIT title.

In any case, congratulations to the Gamecock hoops team for beating S.C. State, 92-67, to begin the season 1-0. Where have I seen that before?
