Night Bullets

Here are a few notes of interest from this afternoon.

• John Wall will (or won't) be narrowing his list of schools down and choose a college to attend at some point before October. The leaders are thought to be Kentucky (go for basketball), Miami (go for scenery), and possibly Duke (go for the girls stay close to home). From my vantage point, you gotta think Wall is waiting to receive his test scores. If he chooses a school now, then finds out he doesn't have the scores to get in, his "street cred" might take a hit. You cannot convince me an 18-19 year old kid wants to go play in Europe. They will if they can't get into school, but they don't grow up watching European March Madness.
• Jodie Meeks said he was going through the entire pre-draft process if for no other reason than the experience. There is no pressure on him to decide immediately, and he shouldn't. He added if he was a 2nd round pick, he'll be back. We want him back and he knows what's waiting on him in Lexington in 2009-10.

  "I love playing at Kentucky," Jodie said, "If this doesn't work out, I have no problem coming back. ... and if I'm in the second round, it'll be a no-brainer to go back."

• Prepare for Coach Cal's new website. He and the University are putting together a "web page that ends all web pages". Oh, and speaking of world domination.......
