PrintFirst things first: a weather report. Weather.com's hourly forecast, which admittedly has the accuracy of Nuke LaLoosh (or for a Mizzou-related simile, it's got the accuracy of Sherron Collins shooting clutch free throws...ZING!), basically says rain all day. A 30-40% chance of rain throughout the day turns to 60%-70% come 5pm or 6pm, which...well, it says really bad things about the Mizzou Softball and Baseball games tonight.
That said, they've got to play these games at some point, so...let's get to the links! Mizzou Softball!
- Mutigers.com: Mizzou Softball ready for Regional
- FightingIllini.com: Illini prep for Border Battle in NCAA opener
- FghtingIllini.com: Five Illini earn All-Big Ten honors
- DePaulBlueDemons.com: Softball begins NCAA Championship on Friday
- BradleyBraves.com: BU Softball prepares for NCAA Regional
- The Trib: Ehren Earleywine has a sense for success
- The Trib: Earleywine right at home with Tigers
- KC Star: With its ace healthy again, Mizzou softball is flexing its muscles
- Post-Dispatch: Rockwood Summit product Kristin Nottelmann bolsters Mizzou's Big 12 title hopes in softball
- The Missourian: Micaela Minner shines as the vocal leader for Missouri softball team
Mizzou Baseball!
- Mutigers.com: Tigers conclude regular season against Roadrunners
- PowerMizzou: Coming down the stretch
- The Missourian: Missouri's Folgia named national baseball player of the week
Quickly to basketball recruiting, where PowerMizzou caught up with one Mister Ricky Kreklow...who, man oh man, looks EXACTLY like his dad.
And finally, to football recruiting, where you know how I said Keeston Terry was one of the two big-time in-state recruits I said I didn't feel as confident about Mizzou landing? Bingo. He's off to a North rival. It was a bit predictable, though it does put more onus on Missouri to lock down Liberty's Marcus Lucas.
And don't forget...

Man, Asian Kid looks happy and tired!
He must have celebrated his Meme Championship very hard last night…. Maybe he could give an exclusive interview to Rock M sometime.

Your 11:30 weather update:
So there are all SORTS of storms brewing, but as of this moment they’re all north of Columbia. Looks like northern MO and the Kirksville area are getting crushed again (ugh), but so far all’s clear in Como…

I LOVE this:
"This is where I’ll retire," he said. "I don’t care who calls or how much money they offer. As long as Missouri will keep me, this is where I’m going to be. It’s not because of money. It’s because of loyalty."
While I would never ask a coach to come out and say that, it’s great to see one who feels that way. There are too many variables to expect someone in that profession to show that kind of loyalty, but it’s really awesome that such a seemingly fantastic coach is one of those guys.
"When he went for that ball and dived over the table, I knew what was next to come. I felt sorry for what Texas Tech had to face after that."
-- J. T. Tiller - 3/12/09
yeah...
…and what’s amazing is, it really seems like ALL of our coaches feel this way. Whatever questions Alden, et al, ask when they’re interviewing these people, it really does appear that they’ve got a good read on loyalty. At this point, the only coach I’m even a SMIDGE worried about leaving would be Brian Smith, but that’s just a smidge.

Not entirely sure where he would go at this point...
that would be a step up. I mean…I know Cael Sanderson just blew the roof off the wrestling coaching world, but there are not a lot of places for him to go in my estimation.
