Travis signs with Spanish team
Men's basketball
Romeo Travis has signed with Alerta Cantabria, a professional team in Spain.
He should be an impact player on that team. To give some perspective, another signing was Ryvon Coville, a player from the University of Detroit-Mercy, who averaged 13.7 points and 10.6 rebounds per game.
The story is linked from Hoopshype.com, which refers to Travis as "LeBron James' friend."
Football
GoZips.com added some interesting notes from yesterday's practice, including an interview with Paul Simokovich, the touted offensive guard recruit.
Simkovich said the speed is much greater in college, and it was a completely different level that he isn't used to. That's a practice without pads.
UA's Mike Cawood also mentioned a deep pass from Carlton Jackson to Marcus Patterson, which I must have missed. In addition, the ABJ's David Lee Morgan wrote about the running back situation.
I considered going to practice today, but it's pretty lousy outside.
