Friday Morning Dump

- Colorado coach Jeff Bzdelik had a "casual conversation" with the T-Wolves about a coaching position.

- Carroll College coach hires twin brother.

- Andy Katz talks with Jarvis Varnado.

- Oliver Purnell's fundraiser for the CvC.

- Big Monday's Big XII match-ups announced.

- Former Georgia Tech standout Anthony Morrow scored a record 47 points in a NBA Summer Leage game yesterday. Nice story about Steph Curry from after the game:

At the conclusion of the Warriors/Hornets game, a crowd of kids gathers to try and get an autograph from Morrow. Morrow finishes with media and throws his jersey into the throng of kids, only to have them lunge at it and break the security barricade fighting for it. A younger fan desperately clutches the jersey while another fan struggles to rip it away from him.

While this scene is unfolding, I am interviewing Steph Curry and the two of us stop to watch what's going on. We are both a little unsure of what to do to comfort the boy who is about to cry. Curry then stops the interview, goes over and gives the boy who lost out on the jersey his game-worn shoe.
- A blob in Alaska.

- College athletes and their problems with insurance coverage.

- Remember this guy? He's still whacked out:
