My TV Alma mater “Chasing News” was canceled last Week, but you wouldn’t have known unless you were paying close attention. There was no fanfare, no last goodbye, no Final Point from @BillSpadea. Far as I can tell, there wasn’t even an announcement.
Ok, this is actually REALLY cool:

Darren Mougey said him & his staff completely changed their entire draft scale & system from last year
When asked more on it he said that he had all of his scouts pitch their different grading scales they had learned over the years, & then collectively they created their own unique draft scale "with our own color schemes & number schemes. Had a lot of discussion about it. Enhanced the systems"
Mougey said because they did this he felt much more comfortable visualizing the Board this year & "knowing how it was gonna fall"
This weekend was David Sollenberger’s favorite time of the sports year.
Some years he’d let me stay home from school and we’d watch college basketball together all weekend. One time he let me skip school both Thursday and Friday to hang out with him and watch the tourney. My mom wasn’t happy.
As I grew up we would still talk almost every day during the tournament. He loved Allen Iverson (although he’d get mad that the refs never called him for carrying), Scottie Reynolds, Nick Caner-Medley, and Grant Hill, but also taught me that Christian Laettner was an asshole.
Thinking about him a lot this time of year especially since it’s his birthday weekend. Have a root beer for him, and if you’re watching with your dad make sure to really enjoy the good times spent together. He’d like that.
