Pacing UNLV into its first year of Pacific Coast Athletic Association action will be returning starters--6-6 senior Larry Anderson from Pittsburgh, Pa.,a three-year starter who led the team in scoring last year; 6-9 senior Sidney Green , another three-year starter from New York City who was No. l in rebounding and No. 2 in scoring in 1981-82 and 6-2 junior Danny Tarkanian from Las Vegas, son of head coach Jerry Tarkanian. Last season, Anderson averaged 17.2 points, started all 30 games and led the team in minutes played with 1,050. For those efforts, he earned Sporting NewsHonorable Mention All America and Basketball Weekly Honorable Mention All West Coast. Green last season averaged 16.7 points and 9.0 rebounds. For those numbers, he earned AP and Sporting News Honorable Mention All America and Basketball Weekly Honorable Mention All West Coast. For all three seasons at UNLV, Green has been awarded Honorable Mention All America. Tarkanian in 1981-82 averaged 5.4 points and 1.8 rebounds, while credited with 57 steals and a school record 262 assists. He earned Sporting News Honorable Mention All America and Basketball Weekly second team All Junior College Transfer squad. In 1980-81, Tark played at Dixie College in St. George, Utah. Supporting that cast will be four other returning lettermen, led by 6-8 junior Richie Adams, from New York City, who last season started 14 games and got 7.5 points and 4.7 rebounds a game. The other returning lettermen are--6-9 senior Ken Lyles, who just recently underwent right knee surgery; 5-5 soph guard Leroy Byrd and 6-9 senior John Copeland, who was redshirted in 1981-82. Easing the pain of the departure of two starters and top reserve-­ starters 6-6 Richard Box and 6-8 Michael Johnson and 6-4 Dwayne Polee-­ are Tark's new recruits, two transfers and three incoming freshmen. The transfers are 6-10 junior center Paul Brozovich, who sat out last season at Saddleback Community College after playing two years (1979-81) at Pitt and 6-2 junior guard Jeff Collins. Collins was a two­ year starter at Arizona who transferred to UNLV last January. He will be eligible to play second semester of the 1982-83 campaign. The three incoming frosh are --6-6 Eldridge Hudson, considered by many prep experts to be the best high school forward in the country last year; 6-4 Gary Graham and 6-11 Georg Posti. Hudson was the 1982 Los Angeles Player of the Year and led his Carson , Calif . sqaud to a 26-2 mark and the Cali - ~ ate 4- A t i tle.

    Gopher Basketball 2008-09 Coaching Staff [ 71 ] Minnesota Basketball 2008-09 Gopher Basketball 2008-09 Head Coach Tubby Smith TUBBY SMITH Head Coach n March 23, 2007 Tubby Smith was announced as the 16th head bas - ketball coach of the Minnesota Golden Gophers Men’s Basketball pro - gram. One of the most respected coaches in the country and a nation - O al champion was coming to Gold Country to lead the Gopher program. The excitement of bringing one of the top coaches in the country to the University of Minnesota was only matched by the satisfaction of welcoming one of the classiest individuals in the world of college basketball today to the Maroon and Gold. In his first season at the “U”, Smith took a team that had won nine games the season before to a 20-14 record. The Gophers finished sixth in the Big Ten Conference at 8-10 and were the sixth seed in the Big Ten Tournament. The 11-game improvement in the win column from the 2006-07 season is the largest season turn - around in school history and tied for the second-best turnaround in Division I in 2007-08. Also, the five-win improvement in conference play was the second biggest Big Ten turnaround in 2007-08. Smith came to Minnesota with a reputation for winning at the highest level not matched by many coaches in the country. In his 17-year career, he has claimed a National Title (Kentucky in 1997-98), made four “Elite Eight appearances”, nine “Sweet Sixteen” appearances, posted 15 straight 20-win seasons and has the 12th-best active winning percentage of any coach at the Division I level with a 407-159 record (.719).

    In the Shadow of Trump: How the 2016 Presidential Contest Affected House and Senate Primaries Prepared for the 2017 State of the Parties Conference, Akron, Ohio Robert G. Boatright, Clark University [email protected] The presidential race did not quite monopolize all of the uncivil or bizarre moments of the summer of 2016. One of the more interesting exchanges took place in Arizona in August of 2016, during the weeks before the state’s Senate primary election. Senator John McCain, always a somewhat unpredictable politician, has had difficulties in his last two primaries. Perhaps because he was perceived as having strayed too far toward the political center, or perhaps simply because his presidential bid had created some distance between McCain and Arizonans, he faced a vigorous challenge in 2010 from conservative talk show host and former Congressman J. D. Hayworth. McCain ultimately beat back Hayworth’s challenge, 56 percent to 32 percent, but only after a bitter campaign in which McCain spent a total of over $21 million and abandoned much of his “maverick” positioning and presented himself as a staunch conservative and a fierce opponent of illegal immigration (Steinhauer 2010). His task was made easier by his ability to attack Hayworth’s own checkered career in Congress. In 2016, McCain again faced a competitive primary opponent, physician, Tea Party activist, and two-term State Senator Kelli Ward. Ward, like Hayworth, argued that McCain was not conservative enough for Arizona. Ward was (and is), however, a decade younger than Hayworth, and her shorter tenure in political office made it harder for McCain to attack her.
