Speaking of VCU, awesome ending to a game marred by the new rules last night. Should be a good year for them.

Not sure if Shaka Smart is realistic, but Texas can offer more money than anyone else. I think Buzz is the more realistic scenario (I actually prefer him and he's from Texas). Shaka is definitely more realistic than Self, because Kansas would pretty much match anything Texas would offer. VCU doesn't have those resources. However, that 15 year contract is pretty good stability which Texas would never offer. If he wants Kentucky than he just has to wait a couple years until Calipari is about to get caught cheating again.
