Each week, I'll write about the sport I love: college basketball: Frank Jackson decided to sign with an agent, giving up his final three seasons of eligibility at Duke. I felt that if he returned next season he could have had a special campaign with the Blue Devils. I see him going in the second round of the NBA draft. Cullen Neal has become a basketball vagabond. He left New Mexico to go to Mississippi. Now he has left Oxford to go to Saint Mary's. The Missouri Valley Conference made a good decision inviting Valparaiso into the conference. Remember, the MVC needed a replacement when Wichita state went to the american athletic Conference. Cincinnati and UCLA will meet in a home-and-home series over the next two seasons. UCLA will host the Bearcats for the first time ever in Pauley Pavilion on Dec. 16, 2017. Former Ohio State Buckeyes guard JaQuan Lyle was arrested on misdemeanor charges. Lyle, who averaged 11.4 PPG and 4.6 APG last season, left the team on April 11. Sorry to learn of the passing of former St. John's guard Glen Williams to cancer He was an outstanding scorer in the 70s.
