Wednesday Morning Dump

On Tuesday, the college basketball world was shook by the news that legendary Tennessee women's coach Pat Summit was diagnosed with early onset of Alzheimer's Disease (Ed. Note: This horrible disease has been a part of my life since I was a child. Alzheimer's has taken two people very close to my heart. As terrible as this news may be, lets be thankful that Coach Summit has been diagnosed now, instead of finding out too late.) Mike DeCourcy details Pat Summit's plan for success

- But that wasn't the only news out of Knoxville on Tuesday. former-Volunteers head coach Bruce Pearl has been hit with the dreaded "Show-Cause" penalty. His assistant coaches received 1-year "Show Cause" bans as well

- Georgetown finished their trip to China on a high note defeating Taiwan 83-64. No team in the country had an experience quite like Georgetown. The Hoyas return to the USA with a record of 3-1-1, with the one loss coming via TKO in the 4th Quarter of "The Great Brawl in China 1" (#toosoon?)

- What's this? Billy Gillespie is already causing pandemonium at Texas Tech? I bet nobody saw that coming.....

- School is almost back in session and within the next week freshman will start arriving on campus. Unfortunately for West Virginia, Jabarie Hinds is still waiting to enroll

- A great-read from John Templon on how JuCo transfers provide an immediate impact for mid-major program

- If you missed any of Rush The Court's Summer conference updates, you can find all of them here

- According to Josaon King, Arnett Moultrie may be the missing piece for Mississippi State

- A solid list of potential breakout stars in the 2011-2012 Big Ten Conference


- As if Miami couldn't afford and more bad news, word on the street is that senior forward Julian Gamble will miss the entire season because of an torn ACL

- Here's a preliminary look at Wisconsin's full schedule for 2011-2012

- Mount St. Mary's makes some personnel changes

- I've always been a closet LBSU fan, and now I know why

- An early look at Indiana's front-court for 2011-2012

- Manhattan's non-conference schedule has been set

- Oh, so now UConn will ramp up it's compliance

- Do you know who DJ Cooper is? I'm a Hoya fan, so I certainly do (And no, he's not a member of the Bayia Rockets)

- Gary Williams wont be coaching this year, but that doesn't mean he wont be raking in the cash

- I'll be honest. I'm not exactly sure what Villanova By The Numbers is talking about, but it sure looks interesting. So you might as well take 5-10min and read it

- If "The Morning Dump" and "B.I.A.H POSTERIZED" merged in to one, it might look sorta like this

- Harrison Barnes tried to fake an injury and/or receive extra credit for his theater 101 summer course
