As this observer was reminded on numerous occasions over the last few days, the father of the groom doesn’t get much attention at weddings … until the bills are due. That’s okay, just happy to see the knot tied and to help ensure the couple gets off to a good start.
The vows were exchanged in Fort Myers, Fla. We stayed a few days with University of Kentucky in-laws at a development called Wildcat Run. Our hosts, the inhabitants of the house, feast on Big Blue except when we are there. After the wedding, we opted for a more neutral setting, checking in at a beach front resort to finally relax and unwind.
Saw a few other Wildcat fans on the plane going and coming. Couldn’t help but wonder why anyone in their right mind would want to be seen in UK garb.
Arrive home only to hear still another chapter in the Derrick Caracter soap opera. He will have to get a decent job and a student loan or Pell Grant to attend school on his own and raise his grade average to acceptable levels. That would be plenty of motivation for most people but with Caracter you have to be skeptical.
The good thing for Pitino is that he won’t be receiving as many phone calls and text messages from Caracter for a few months.
Really a rotten shame that Art Carmody has not been picked for a National Football League team yet. One of the best place kickers in NCAA history is totally ignored? That really doesn’t make much sense.
Carmody’s streak of 97 consecutive extra points from 2004-2006 set a Louisville record and helped him earn the most prestigious award in kicking during his junior campaign. His 433 career points is an all-time record for NCAA kickers. The three-time All-Big East first-team performer connected on all 53 PATs and 13 of 17 field goals as a Louisville senior.
Brandon Dunaway, a sophomore guard on the Corydon Central basketball team,will be watched closely by college scouts over the next three years. He showed off some of his skills during the recent AAU action in Louisville, knocking down all four three-point attempts in one game. Possibly in the mode of a number of top performers from the Hoosier state, Dunaway is a gym rat, who lives, breathes and dreams everything basketball.
Probably Indiana bound, if his friends and family ties are any indication. Thinks new IU Coach Tom Crean is “a pretty cool guy.” See, he’s already brainwashed.
