So, I will go with your source and say that I was wrong then. | DeCourcy is one of the best. He's required reading for the college basketball fan. |

In my own experiences with Lexington (ex-GF was born and raised there, so I've been there many times), I never thought it was an overly staid, ultraconservative town. Plenty of bars, plenty of drinking going on. |

I think UK just wants to have it on record. If he does mow someone down walking to class, they can fire him and not honor his contract.  |
