The University of Kansas has hired a brigade of senior citizens hell-bent on making sure the students on its basketball team go to class — and stay there, The Wall Street Journal reported in its Tuesday edition. “They're sneaky sometimes — they'll get you,” said freshman guard Royce Woolridge. Schools have long enlisted other students to help keep tabs on their scholarship athletes, who are naturally tempted to skip class from time to time to catch up on the sleep they miss practicing, training and traveling for far-away, late-night games.
Walter Cornett, of Glendale, Kentucky, is the owner and operator of Walter's Wildcat World. He founded WildcatWorld.com in 1998 making it one of the oldest Kentucky basketball fan sites in operation today.
