• SI.com’s Stewart Mandel says that Boise State’s Chris Petersen might be the best fit for Tennessee’s next head coach.
• Here’s another article about the wild A-11 offense that a high school in California runs that some call “the football offense of the future.” Basically, the idea is two quarterbacks and almost everybody eligible to catch a pass.

Many referred to him as the “Yoda” of basketball and he’s one of the very few people Bobby Knight defers to in basketball knowledge.
