The Sock 'Em, Bust 'Em Board Because that's our custom

Ladies, be patient with Alex Ruoff

Time to reshape the way you think about college athletes and the sacrifices they make. This is equal parts sad and hysterical.

So what did at least one of the 130 kids in attendance at the 3rd annual Eric Bovaird Hilltopper Basketball Camp at the Hilltoppers’ ASRC want to know about Ruoff on Tuesday night?

”Do you have a girlfriend?”

No, Ruoff said. ”I had one, but then Coach (Bob) Huggins showed up, and I was going home and went straight to bed.”

Later, Ruoff said that was no fib.

”The girlfriend story is legit,” he said. ”I had no energy for a relationship and she blew me off.”
