Lebron Dunk Tape Being Released Tonight

"Considering TMZ managed to land pictures of Steve McNair and his mistress (plus all sorts of never-before-seen shots of Michael Jackson's house and family), it was only a matter of time before it got its hands on footage of Xavier's Jordan Crawford dunking on LeBron James. That time has come.

The website is reporting that it will unveil the grainy footage at 6:45 ET.

"LeBron's people and Nike reportedly confiscated all video proof of the moment LeBron got taken to the HOLE -- but we finally found the one SURVIVING copy of the moment LeBron became LeBitch," reads the story at TMZ.com, and I couldn't begin to tell you why the word surviving is in all caps, but whatever. "And [the tape is] awesome!!! (Sportsline)"

Obviously if we can get our hands on it we will put it up. Hopefully Lebron pisses himself and starts crying...

Dunking On Lebron

We will never get to see the tape, but here is the interview with the kid who did it. I am glad he is from the A-10, it's about time they did something....

Xavier Promote Chris Mack To Head Coach

"Xavier will promote Chris Mack to succeed Sean Miller as the school's head basketball coach, multiple sources told CBSSports.com on Tuesday. A press conference is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday. Miller left Xavier last week to succeed Lute Olson at Arizona. Almost immediately, Mack was tabbed as the leading candidate, and his position was strengthened when Miller -- plus most of the players and recruits --endorsed the 39-year-old assistant (Sportsline)."

To me this is a great move. I don't think enough teams hire from within, and this guy has paid his dues and deserves the job. He is a former player, and has been with the team for a long time. Xavier runs a very good program and is consistently on the top of the A-10, and even though it is a week conference Xavier is usually in the top 25. The team that they have right now can challenge for a Final 4 bid next year, so keeping the same philosophies is important. That's why hiring from within and have as much continuity as possible is their best bet.

Miller Decides To Stay At Xavier....Then Doesn't

Another day another coach turning down Arizona. Miller has a really good team at Xavier next season, and he is seeing a lot of potential problems if he was to go to Arizona. Zona is under investigation, and they have been having recruiting problems over the past couple seasons. As more and more coaches turn down this once proud franchise, you have to wonder what Arizona will do now. If I was them I would just keep their interim coach, who got them a couple rounds into the tournament, because it doesn't seem like anyone is going to want this job until that investigation is over. Plus, now any coach to try to hire is going to know that he wasn't their top 3 choice, so you know that they aren't going to be very happy about that.


**UPDATE**

"Barring another last-minute change of plans, Sean Miller will be introduced as Arizona's next basketball coach despite the fact that he turned down the job late Sunday, a source has told CBSSports.com.'

Wow, What the fuck is this all about. Well, Arizona looks to finally got someone to coach this team. Miller is a very good coach, and Arizona has to be really happy to have him. I wonder how much extra cash it took to reel him in after he turned the offer down yesterday...

We'll have more when the information about his contract are released.
