RE: Trouble scoring against the zone

[A.K. G]

"Texas coach Rick Barnes says the school could find out from the NCAA on 
Friday when freshman Mike Williams will be eligible to compete for the 
Longhorns. Williams, a 6-foot-7 forward from Camden, Ala., who was selected 
as a McDonald's High School All-America last year, has been allowed to 
practice with the team but has not played in any of Texas' five 
regular-season games because of the NCAA's investigation into whether he 
received impermissible benefits from his former AAU coach while he was a 
sophomore in high school."

Could this be what is going on with Banks?  I hope not?  Also is it just me, 
or has Texas landed a lot of McD's the past few years.
