         <description><![CDATA[-Bob Knight promised that when he finally decided to call it quits at Texas Tech it would be hard to find him. The Hall of Fame coach stayed true to his word Monday. After telling his sons, his bosses and his team of his resignation, Knight spoke only to one local newspaper about his shocking departure in the middle of his seventh season in West Texas. "He's ready," successor and son Pat Knight said during his weekly radio program. "He's tired." Knight left during his 42nd year as a head coach with more wins than any Division I men's coach. Pat Knight inherited a team that is struggling at 12-8 and has 10 games remaining.]]></description>

         <title>NCAA Reaches Settlement in Federal Antitrust Lawsuit</title>
         <guid>http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/nabc/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/013008aac.html</guid>

         <description><![CDATA[The NCAA has reached an agreement with plaintiffs in a federal antitrust lawsuit that would benefit current and former student-athletes through a restructuring of assistance funds. The proposed settlement, which must be approved by the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, would end a case in which plaintiffs argued that caps on student-athlete grants-in-aid to tuition, room and board and books amounted to a restriction of trade.Foremost among settlement terms is a reorganization of funds that allow conferences and institutions to distribute $218 million in existing allocations through 2012-13. Those dollars originally were designated for the Special Assistance Fund and the Academic Enhancement Fund - existing funds earmarked for specific uses - but will now be more widely accessible under the flexible guidelines of the Student-Athlete Opportunity Fund (SAOF).]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[-Billy Taylor was introduced Wednesday as Ball State's head coach, giving him about three months to prepare while the program deals with possible NCAA violations and claims of a "racially hostile work environment" by former coach Ronny Thompson. Taylor was 81-69 in five seasons at Lehigh, including a Patriot League championship in 2004. Now he'll take over a team that went 9-22 in Thompson's only season. As a black coach, Taylor said he had some concerns coming into the program, but was "confident in the process that has been set forth to resolve the NCAA issues."]]></description>
