Heard West speak once at a banquet. Met him briefly at a different function one time.

My favorite interaction though was when I was in middle school. He was doing a clinic or something. Can’t remember.

He was giving a talk while he was shooting. He was probably 50 years old at this time. Probably spoke for an hour and the whole time he is talking he is shooting. He probably hit 90% of his shots. It got to the point it was a surprise if it even hit the rim.


Greatest Mountaineer ever. RIP.

Via Ole Miss Football on X: Monte Kiffin, 84, peacefully passed away today in Oxford surrounded by family and friends. As his grandson Knox said, he’s free of pain and smiling down on us from above.

A native of Lexington, Nebraska, Kiffin was an offensive and defensive tackle at Nebraska from 1959 to 1963. He was a graduate assistant at UNL from 1966-1968 and a defensive coordinator from 1969-1976.

Shannen Doherty, an actress who starred on the popular series “Beverly Hills, 90210” and “Charmed” and documented her nine-year battle with breast cancer, has died, according to her longtime publicist.

She was 53.

9 years is a long time to have that kind of stress weight on your shoulders.

How is it that all these health advocates die in their 70s yet Willie is what? And DR Ruth always encouraged a roll in the hay
