It shows 26 available, but only authorized to 4. What's up with that? Could it be weight restricted? I've never seen this before on a flight. The authorized seats are usually higher than the available. Any ideas?

A quick agreement is easy. All management has to do is write the check.
The only question is how bad they want it.

Pay'em all! (and I'm a UK fan)

There is no evidence to suspect that anything is going on at Kentucky. Kentucky already had a probation season. I would like to think that the school learned their lesson. Of course I could be wrong. But until there is evidence, lets not jump to conclusions.
Also, not everyone on the lineup are freshman. Lambs and Jones are Sophomores, Miller and Vargas are Seniors. Yes, Gilchrist, Davis, and Teague are freshman and they will probably bail. Do you blame them? Do you think colleges should recruit players who are good, but not good enough to go to the NBA so they won't bail? Every school would do it if they could get those players.
I am incredibly proud of this team. I have told many just that well before they won the tournament. There are some incredible underlying team/personal stories which have purposely been kept out of the press limelight so it wouldn't have interfered with the team goals.
For a team of NBA hopefuls, they have been one of the most unselfish group of players considering that anyone of them could have gone out, hogged the ball so as to impress the recruiters. Instead, they worked as a team and had a remarkable season. Good for then, good for Kentucky.
GO KATS !!!!
