Today is the day we have been all waiting for as our 5 Cats(4 if you count Orton as a Jayhawk) find a new home in the NBA. I wonder how fast the ratings will drop after the first round is finished? I know that is when I will turn it off, even if Daniel Orton is drafted by then or not. As you can tell, I have a little bit of anger towards Daniel. It wasn’t that long ago everyone was saying Orton was taken out of context about a comment he made about wishing he had went to Kansas. I didn’t think it was out of context then, now everyone knows he meant what he said. Well, good luck Daniel, I guess. Hope you go to the Clippers.

[*]I love how Coach Cal has put out a blanket warning to all the NBA teams if they pass up on DeMarcus Cousins they will regret it. This is a perfect example of how the media can sway the minds of everyone. Well, at least they try. I’m not much on buying NBA jerseys, but Boogie’s might have to be a first.
[*]Recruiting news has been a little slow lately but a little tidbit today about Quincy Miller and Deuce Bello caught my eye. The two are best friends and have spoke of going to the same college next year. Now I know we have heard this before from the Terrences so you never know how things will play out. It just seems like any 2011 recruit Kentucky wants, they are going to get.
[*]Saw several rumors on twitter that the Cleveland Cavaliers are very interested in Eric Bledsoe. Bledsoe hasn’t had a whole lot of talk about him, especially with all the pub going to his teammates, but many think drafting him could make a NBA Gm look like a genius. Obviously Eric is a hard worker and I am sure he will do everything he can do to improve his game.
[*]I really like the John Wall commercial. By far the best part of it was at the end when he does the Dance. He is a marketing dream and Reebok needs to stay on top of him. I might actually buy those shoes. Might not wear them, but I might buy them.
[*]Joker keeps adding recruits and the funny thing is no one seems to care. I am worried about this season, and with most UK football fans it is about the now. The top priority is to figure out the QB situation. Simple, huh? Not in this state.
[*]You have to love all the talk about William Wesley. I think it is so entertaining and a great story about a guy who has so much power and no one even knows what is occupation actually is. I smell movie deal.
[*]I guess I will shut up and watch some World Cup the rest of the day. I am looking forward to the draft. Still can’t believe I am saying that. Coach Cal has changed me I guess. Might as well get used to it!!
