joe knows...
-- Michael Dirocco of the Florida Times-Union notes LSU's Glen Davis is giving new meaning to the term "Big Baby," Joe Crawford and Tubby Smith are still not on the same page and Eddie Fogler will never work a Fox Sports Net broadcast of a South Carolina game. The bit about Crawford showing up in street clothes for a game in which Tubby had cleared him to play is a keeper.-- Tom Housenick of the Sunbury (PA) Daily Item gives a little love to Bucknell, winners of 11 straight. Are they worthy of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament? Perhaps. But don't expect the Patriot League squad to get it.
-- Chuck Hayes has been cleared to play on Saturday.
-- It is only a matter of time (I hope) until college basketball follows football's lead and embraces Friday-night games.
-- Dan Monson ain't going nowhere, or so says University of Minnesota athletics director Joel Maturi. More from Jeff Shelman.
