However, my concern lies with the NCAA's studies. The NCAA has the ability to limit the number of scholarships a school may offer in a year in any given sport based on six year graduation rates. Both within the sport and based on the school's overall student-athlete graduation rate.

"When you see Kentucky's fans, you just wonder. You think how wonderful it would be to go to their school. You wish you could trade places for a day, just so you could experience that feeling." - UCLA player Kris Johnson

Go Big Blue!

Dear TSteven,

My condolences on your recent loss. Your Cats played a lovely game and they are one of our favorite March opponents.

M-U RAH-RAH!

Thanks. I am so proud of my Cats. Not only for their hard play yesterday, but for the whole season. I do find comfort in what former Marquette Coach Al McGuire said regarding Kentucky's Basketball Tradition: "They had it before you, they had it during you, they'll have it when you're gone..."

Best of luck versus Stanford tomorrow.

I love it when Marquette plays Kentucky - it's always a well-played game because the teams are pretty well matched up and it's a fun rivalry.
