| Overton and USC hit court — as opponents
Overton committed to USC in September 2006 but didn't sign in the early November period, then pledged his allegiance to Washington in February 2007, signing later that spring. "I was ready to sign [with USC early], but he [Floyd] didn't want me to sign right away," Overton said. "That was the issue. UW wanted me to sign right away, so I wasn't sure if their [the Trojans'] offer was real, like they didn't think I was going to make it. I think they were going to set me up to a prep school, and I didn't really want that." Said Floyd: "We would have taken Venoy if he had honored his commitment." Overton said he ultimately decided to just stay home. "I just wanted to be a hometown kid," he said. Intriguingly, Overton could return to the starting lineup today as coach Lorenzo Romar attempts to jump-start the Huskies after losses to Washington State and UCLA.
Open Thread
My only hope is we hold enough in the house and senate that we can slow down the ship. I know, cutting off my nose to spite my face, but at this point I'm disgusted with my face. Maybe, just maybe, if they screw it up enough (like Jimmy Carter did) we might get another Reagan. Its sad, and I think that a lot of people think like me. Fox viewers are down because we (the conservatives) are feeling rather low, so if they are like me they cut off the TV. The RNC is sooooo clue less, they keep sending me letterswith a check list to what is important to me, then ask for money. The last one I taped a brick to the letter and told them tobuild a fence and start with this brick. I haven't gotten any letter lately. IDIOTS. Sorry for the rant, I'm a bit pissed off.
Two Arrested in Drug Ring Investigation
He faces felony charges for allegedly possessing and selling hydrocodone to an undercover officer in November 2007. Ryan Scouten, 32, was arrested on Sunday. He also faces felony charges for allegedly selling cocaine to an undercover officer in December 2007. Five others were arrested late last year, during the same undercover operation. The Penn Yan Police Department, the Yates County Sheriff's Office, and the Ontario County Sheriff's Office collaborated on this effort. .
