***Breaking News*** - Coal Out, Boners In?

Actually, I think the name will grow on me.

In a fantastic turn of events, a source close to the situation has informed me that the University Board of Trustees has overturned their decision to name the new basketball living quarters Wildcat Coal Lodge. There was no indication a rift was between the University and the coal industry, as the two have worked together well in the past.

But the lefties on the University Board have some major pull as they announced this morning to go with hippies as opposed to Big Coal. The Kentucky Department of Parks and Recreation have been in negotiations with the University over the past few days to get rid of this "Hershey Highway" name from eastern Kentucky.

Governor Steve Beshear will have a presser this afternoon announcing the new name of the old Joe B. Hall Wildcat Lodge...................Big Bone Lick Suites. The students (or "ballers") who will ultimately live in the new dormitory effectively shall be called Boners.

The signage outside of the Suites will stay true to its State Park brother just up the road. The only change will be that the woolly mammoths on each side of the signage shall have "erect trunks" (like this) as opposed to the "limp noodle" featured above. The new barracks will be included in the Bourbon Trail and State Park Association.

More to come as this story develops.
