Darius Ruttiger?

They Should have re-named him Michael MAN-Gilchrist...

Just when you think that there is no possible way The Hyphenated Assassin could endear himself to the BBN more than he has.... He does...

The kid gets it. He transcends basketball, dribble drive offenses, and Sports Center Highlights...Flat out, the kid gets it. He understands. Those are the kind of people you want around you. 

MKG is good people.

Now, the issue of starting Miller: Some people say it should be done. Others will tell you that people are just riding his jock because he is from Mason County. That he is viewed with blue tinted goggles, and he is not worthy of the regard he is held in by the BBN and the presumed boner they have for a homegrown Wildcat senior...
