Mid-week report

Bad Hair Day resurfaces! Andy Katz has the story at ESPN: Quin Snyder to coach in the NBDL!. Yes Quin Snyder folks. I kid you not. This is not an April fools day joke! He will coach the Austin Toros, so at least he will be living in a fun city full of students, artists and such, where no one will be making fun of his hairstyle ;-) Maybe Coach K can schedule Snyder's team for an exhibition game. I'm sure the NCAA will give the Dirty Rat permission ;-)

Florida stands by Billy the Diva according to this AP story. According to that story Donovan's Florida new contract was set at 3.5 million per year for seven years - this right before he took the Orlando Magically Tragic job.

Goodman's Blog segment: Bruce Pearl tries to get Iowa transfer Tyler Smith eligible right away, Donovan's recruits indicate they won't flip-flop. Goodman also looks at BU's (Boston U) foreign tour to Taiwan (yes, not a typo), updates on two coaches who went from BCS to mid-major (Gary Waters at Cleveland State, and Buzzzzz Peterson at Coastal Carolina), and an update on the draft status of Boston College do-it-all Californian forward Jared Dudley... Check Goodman's blog for all the details.
