Interesting read - I recommend reading this article for those not in tune with the shady things that can go on in the world of youth basketball. I feel sorry for these kids that begin to have their childhood striped by the age of 12 or 13.
of note:
"Sidney receives about 10 letters a week from colleges, but coaches often go to other measures to try to cultivate a relationship with the player, the elder Sidney said. He said colleges several times have invited him to run a basketball camp at their school for a fee. He has done it once -- at a Southeastern Conference school -- but declined all other offers because he believes the schools only want to get close to his son."
There's a surprise.

REPORTER: As great as everybody loves the tradition of the game being the last game of the year, do you foresee the possibility, with all the changes in college football right now, that eventually the Big Ten might have to go to two divisions and have a championship game?
TRESSEL: Not by Saturday. So, I don't know, I don't give it any thought.
