Minnesota is Apparently Desperate for a Point Guard

by Jerry Holt, Star Tribune

As I was looking for articles praising excoriating Brett Favre for his late-game decision-making, I came across this little gem. An 8th grader who's starting for his high school's varsity team has caught the attention of Tubby Smith, coach of UMinnesota.

From the Minneapolis Star Tribune: "Apple Valley eighth-grader Tyus Jones is already a starting point guard on the varsity team, and his exploits have caught Tubby Smith's attention."
