On a gloomy day in Lex-ington, the sun came out forjust a moment as the UKfootball team took the fieldfor the first time since Janu-ary, for its annual Blue vs.White intrasquad scrimmage.

In a new format, thestarters on both offense anddefense suited up for theWhite team. The reservesmade up the Blue team, andwere spotted a 14-0 lead tostart the game. Blue held onto defeat White by a finalscore of 31-28 courtesy of aJoe Mansour 38-yard fieldgoal with under a minute toplay.

The game was quarter-back Morgan Newton’s firstopportunity to command thefirst team offense in front ofBig Blue Nation, whichbrought a crowd of approxi-mately 4,000 fans to Com-monwealth Stadium for thegame. Newton completed 23-44 passes for 256 yards andthree touchdowns on the af-ternoon with just one inter-ception.

“I threw it all right, some-times,” Newton said. “I couldhave made some betterthrows sometimes, but otherthan that guys were in theright place; we just need tomake some plays. But otherthan that it was pretty encour-aging.”

Dropped passes plaguedUK’s offense all afternoon,for both the Blue and Whiteteams. Depending on how adropped pass is scored, thetwo teams accounted foraround 10 drops for thegame. Both Newton andbackup quarterback MaxwellSmith, who led the Blueteam in the game, struggledwith open receivers droppingpasses.

“They were tough catch-

es, but big-time (SoutheasternConference) receivers need tomake those plays,” wide re-ceiver E.J. Fields said. “Youare going to get hit when youcatch the ball, you are goingto have to make diving catch-es, you just have to makethose plays.”

Fields opened the gamewith an acrobatic, one-handedcatch over a defender deepdown the field, and followedit by breaking two tackles andscoring the game’s firsttouchdown for the Blue team.Fields also suited up for theWhite team, catching a touch-down from Newton in thefourth quarter. For the game,Fields had three catches for61 yards and the two scoresbetween both teams. BrianAdams skipped UK’s base-ball game with Arkansas totake part in the scrimmage,and led all receivers with sev-en catches for 121 yards andtwo touchdowns of his own,all for Newton and the Whiteteam

On the ground, RaymondSanders and Jonathan Georgesplit time in the backfield forthe White team behind a start-ing offensive line with fourreturning starters from lastyear’s team. For the Blueteam, it was CoShik Williamswho received most of the car-ries behind a line that provid-

ed him with few holes andprovided Smith little time inthe pocket.

“(The offensive line) justhave to continue to develop,and continue to get better anddevelop some depth behindus,” guard Stuart Hines said.“Those guys are workingtheir butts off, too, and theyjust have to continue to keepworking, keep their heads upand keep confidence in them-selves.”

The scrimmage was alsothe first time the defense wasable to display co-defensivecoordinator Rick Minter’snew defensive schemes forfans in full-speed game ac-tion. The first team defenseallowed only 94 total yards ofoffense to the second team of-fense in Blue, while the sec-ond team defense allowed354 yards of offense to thestarters in White. Overall, thedefense looked strong onsome plays, flawed on others,and confused on some aswell.

“I felt like the defensecame together today,” line-backer Ronnie Sneed said.“We put together the piecesof the puzzle and I felt likeoverall we did pretty good.The guys got after it, and wegave the offense a rough timeI felt like.”

“We’ve got a lot of lead-ers on defense,” linebackerand reigning SEC tackleschampion Danny Trevathansaid. “We’ve got a lot of guyswho aren’t going to let thisteam down on defense.”

Trevathan led the Whiteteam with five tackles, in-cluding one tackle for loss.Linebacker Avery Williamsonled the Blue team with 10tackles and a “sack” (playerscould not actually contact thequarterbacks so assumedsacks were up to the referee’s

Annual Blue-White scrimmage shows promise, displays flaws as football prepares for fall

The Bluegrass Chapter of the Society forNeuroscience will be hosting a presentationMonday discussing the use of Adderall and Ri-talin as a study aid.

A cast of experts representing the BGSFNwill be speaking about the use of prescriptiondrugs by students as study aides for their upcom-ing final exams.

BGSFN has been active for nearly 40 yearsat UK, and according to its website the missionof the BGSFN is to “promote the advancementof neuroscience research within the Bluegrass.”

The panel is scheduled to explain tips onhow to study for and succeed in the taking of fi-nal exams without the use of these prescriptiondrugs, and answer any question the audiencemay have.

“I want to attend this presentation and see ifI have truly been studying effectively for thepast five years,” Tommy Kurz, a managementand finance senior, said.

Whitney Allen, an education sophomore,heard about the presentation in one of her class-es.

“I would like to learn about the effects ofAdderall on the brain and discover why peopleuse it to help them study,” she said.

While campus does not of-ficially close for the Easterweekend, many students ven-tured home to celebrate withtheir families. Others, though,had to remain on campus andfind ways to celebrate withtheir UK family.

Students attempted to findways to celebrate the holidayaround Lexington and campuswith their friends who havenot gone home, or spend theirfree time catching up onclasswork.

Daniel Baker, a communi-cations senior, did not go homefor the weekend so he couldfinish class work.

“I’m staying in Lexingtonand trying to get some finalpapers, homework done beforegraduation,” Baker said.

Baker said he would havestayed at UK anyway.

“Usually I do not go homefor Easter,” Baker said. “I livetwo and a half hours awayfrom Lexington and my familydoesn't really do much excepteat a big dinner, which is usu-ally later in the day. It wouldbe too late to drive back afterwe got finished, so it's just eas-ier not to go at all.”

Maria Cook, a first-yeargraduate student of health ad-ministration, said she lives toofar away to go home. She saidshe celebrated in Lexington.

“I usually did (go home forEaster) when I was an under-grad in New York because Iwas closer to home, but nowmy family is 10 hours away, sothat’s why I couldn’t thisyear,” she said.

Cook stayed in Lexingtonwhere she attended church be-fore going to work, she said.

“I went to church early inthe morning and then came towork … because all the otheremployees wanted to gohome,” Cook said.

Cook said her family nor-mally has events for the holi-day for the young members,then a large dinner to spendquality time with the family.

Because she is missingout on the family dinner,Cook’s family did send hersome chocolate for the holi-day.

news@kykernel.com There are certain thingsunique to UK, such as the desirefor anything basketball. The BigBlue Nation is loud and proud,and now these fans have an on-line outlet.

A new website has been cre-ated for fans and students to ex-press their feelings for theschool.

OnlyatUK.com, a websiteformed earlier this year by UKstudent Evan Gunter, is a placefor Kentucky fans, students,teachers and alumni to sharetheir unique UK stories witheach other in a format similar toother social networking sites.

“The point of OnlyatUK issimple,” Gunter said, “It’s aplace to express events, yourfeelings or anything else thatpertains to the University ofKentucky, good or bad.”

Gunter said the idea dawnedon him while sitting in class.

“UK was doing awesome in

the tournament and I wanted todo something where I could ex-press those feelings to Big BlueNation, and they could expresssimilar feelings to me,” he said.

Similar websites to Only-atUK exist, like Total FratMove, with the popular saying“TFM.”

OnlyatUK has its uniquetag: “OAUK” (pronounced “oh-aye-you-kay”), which is addedto the end of any comment post-ed on the site or on Twitter as itsunifying symbol.

“I think it’s a unique spin onsome more popular sites,” KylePiercy, a UK student and regularuser of the site, said. “The bestpart is that it was made by a stu-dent and is completely studentrun.”

Gunter said he plans to keepbuilding the site and eventuallyinclude new sections to get evenmore people involved.

“I plan on adding an imagesection and hall of fame sectionto implement over the summer,”he said.

Anyone interested in sharingtheir stories is encouraged to logon to OnlyatUK.com, create ausername and share unique sto-ries about UK with the rest ofthe Wildcat faithful.

The website can also befound on Twitter, @OnlyatUKand using the hashtag, #OAUK.

“I just wanted to buildsomething to give back to thecommunity,” Gunter said,“OAUK is definitely gettingaround.”

James Reams and the Barnstormers, “OneFoot In The Honky Tonk,” Mountain RedbirdMusic. 15 tracks.

These days, most people think of outdoorfamily-oriented festivals when they thinkabout bluegrass.

But, as James Reams writes in the linernotes to “One Foot In The Honky Tonk,” blue-grass pioneers like Red Allen, Jimmy Martin,Earl Taylor, Charlie Moore, Don Reno, RedSmiley and Carter Stanley honed their musicin the honky tonks, roadhouses and beer jointsof an earlier era.

Reams, who was born in the Kentuckyfoothills of Appalachia, has lived in Brooklyn,N.Y., for more than two decades now.

But his music, which straddles the borderwhere traditional country meets bluegrass, re-mains untouched by years of city living.

“Honky Tonk” includes songs of rural lifelike “Cornbread, Molasses & Sassafras Tea,”an uptempo dance tune; “Bailing Again,” asong that finds a farmer talking to his dead fa-ther about crops and kids; and the traditionalgospel song “City That Lies Foursquare.”

But the heart of the album lies with thehonky-tonk theme.

The title cut finds a man listening to a“hillbilly song on the jukebox” with a paintedwoman on his knee — “one foot's in thehonky tonk, the other's in the grave.”

The theme continues with “I Can't SettleDown,” “In The Corner At The Table By theJukebox,” “King of the Blues,” StonewallJackson's “Almost Hear The Blues” and Har-lan Howard's “Goin' Home.”

Reams wrote “River Rising” about a floodthat washes a family away and, with the lateTina Aridas, “Snake Eyes,” a song about gam-bling with love.

The band — Mark Farrell, Doug Nico-laisen and Nick Sullivan with an assist fromKenny Kosek and Barry Mitterhoff — gets tostrut its stuff on such tunes as “SusquehannaGetaway,” “Florida Blues,” “Rocky Creek”and “Passamaquoddy.”

AUBURN, Ala. — Har-vey Updyke, the avowed Ala-bama fan accused of poison-ing Auburn's iconic Toomer'soak trees, broke his silence onthe Paul Finebaum radioshow Thursday.

Updyke, who spoke forclose to an hour in a ramblinginterview, briefly choked upwhile apologizing to his chil-dren and the University of Al-abama, denying any guilt butadmitting he called into theradio show as “Al fromDadeville” in January to bragabout the poisonings, callingit a “prank.”

“It’s one of the biggestmistakes I’ve made,” he said.“My wives said I am acrowd-stirrer. I was just try-ing to upset the Auburn na-tion. ... Do I want the trees todie? No. I would give any-thing in the world for this tonot have happened. But Iguess it's too late now.”

Updyke, 62, faces a crim-inal mischief charge in con-nection with the poisoning ofAuburn’s Toomer’s Corneroak trees, which experts havegiven a low chance of sur-vival after large quantities ofthe herbicide Spike 80DF wasfound in the soil in February.

He waived his prelimi-nary hearing in Lee County

District Court on Wednesday,sending the case to a grandjury for possible indictment,with additional federalcharges a possibility, hislawyer Glennon Threatt said.

“I really think they’re go-ing to put me in prison,” Up-dyke said.

Updyke reiterated hisclaim that following the courtappearance he was struck inthe head outside of the TigerExpress gas station, threemiles from the Lee CountyDistrict Court.

He said he stopped to geta green tea and spoke with afriend on the phone for closeto 30 minutes. When hestepped out of the car, he washit in the face

“They didn’t try to killme,” he said. “If they did,they would have hit me morethan one time.”

Updyke said he went tothe emergency room at EastAlabama Medical Center,where he was treated for mi-nor injuries to his foreheadbefore being released.

He spoke to the Opelikapolice department about theincident but said he could notidentify the assailants. Therewere no witnesses to the at-tack or surveillance footage,leading to speculation that

Updyke staged the event, anotion both he and his lawyer,Glennon Threatt, denied onair.

“If we were trying to getpublicity out of this, wouldn'tit have been better if I hadbeen attacked before the hear-ing?” Updyke said. “This isnot a Charlie Sheen stunt. Iam not winning. I’m losing.”

Threatt said Updykeneeds to get away from Ope-lika.

“It’s almost like Super-man getting away from Kryp-tonite,” he said.

Updyke had his bondconditions altered Wednesdayto allow him to leave thestate. He was on his way toLouisiana on Thursday to staywith his children when hecalled into the show.

He lamented the fact thathe's so infamously recogniza-ble that he won’t be able toattend another Alabama gameand, while not apologizing toAuburn fans, empathizedwith their situation, saying, “Ireally can’t blame them. If Iwas in Auburn’s place, Iwould be upset too.”

“I don’t want it to be mylegacy,” Updyke added. “Idon’t want to go to my gravebeing ‘Harvey the Tree-Poi-soner.’”

monday 04.25.11 page 3kernelopinionsStudent athletes or pro heroes?

As UK students struggle to find park-ing, deal with rising tuition rates and feesand fight to get into the few classes

everyone seems toneed, it’s good to knowthe university directorshave their prioritiesstraight: promotingsports above all.

As the city of Lex-ington faces seriousbudget cuts and a fu-ture of increasingdeficits, a new basket-ball arena seems to re-main a priority, andthis is comforting tome, the average tax

payer.But enough of the sarcasm; we need

to get real about our financial future, orwe are going to seriously jeopardize thefinancial stability of our city. The firstserious issue is funding. The process ofbuilding a new sports arena has startedout on the right foot: with an unfunded$350,000 “task force.” But our inabilityto even make the first step is the least ofour worries. With a deficit exceeding $25million, and a projected boom in deficitsas time goes on, finding the millions nec-essary for this proposed sports arenaseems laughable. Mayor Gray has madeimpressive cuts in refusing his salary,laying off public employees and closingtwo pools and a golf course.

While admirable in their ambition,these cuts at the very best only serve toreduce, not end, our persistent deficit.Throwing a new basketball arena into themix could lead to significantly higherdeficits, and worse, significantly highertaxes. The fact is, we don’t have themoney for a new city-owned sports are-

na.Beyond simply not having the mon-

ey, does the city government even have aresponsibility to maintain something likea basketball arena? A common argumentfor those in favor is that it will increaseeconomic vitality, but has been repeated-ly proved untrue.

In a 2003 Cato Institute research arti-cle, Dennis Coates and Brad R.Humphreys found that a decrease in realper capita income was the common resultof city-built convention centers/sportsarenas. In fact, the studies on the subjectgenerally seem to show that governmentbuilt convention centers/sports arenasnegatively impact the economy generally,encouraging the government to pourmore money into them as costs rise overtime, inevitably leading to increased tax-es, making our city less competitive.

The evidence speaks for itself, butthe principle is also important. Whyshould the city government coerce taxpayers into supporting a sports arenathey may very well not use? We knowthat by supply and demand, if the de-mand is there, private groups will buildand maintain a convention center, andprobably in a far more efficient manner.Government involvement is unnecessaryat best and destructive to the economy atworst.

So the city government clearly cannotand should not build a new sports arena.But what about UK? Well, I’ve got anovel idea: How about instead of wastingmoney on a basketball arena, we lowertuition and resume much needed raisesfor UK’s excellent faculty and staff whohave not had raises in years.

The reality of a new Rupp arenaOxymorons are a fascinating way to look at

social beliefs and commonly held conceptionsand misconceptions. They are jokes that speak

to a certain “truth.”Take, for example, military

intelligence. Its inclusion intothe oxymoronic lexicon showsthat some people find the mili-tary’s capacity for informationgathering to be somewhat sus-

pect. My personal favorite,at least in regards to the UK,is “student athlete.”

At UK, we simultaneous-ly expect a great deal fromour collegiate basketballstars, and very little. A lotbecause we expected fresh-

man Brandon Knight to lead his team to the na-tional championships. We expect a near un-blemished record and a legacy, a hoops dy-nasty. We expect them to go on to be first-round draft picks in the NBA. And we expectthem to do all of this in one year. This is be-cause of how little we truly expect from oursupposed athletic scholars. Because within ayear from them entering campus, we expectand cheer for them to drop out.

Surely, you say, you are being too harsh. Af-ter all, they’re going into a career. Yes, a multi-million-dollar career. So why come to college atall? Since when did a university become a one-year waiting room for a million-dollar career?

There is the old joke about how UK is abasketball team where some people happen toget an education. But it is more true then weseem to accept. Recently, a UK professor waslambasted for accusing the basketball team ofgiving enough money back to academics. Howdare he? Doesn’t he know that basketball iswhat UK is all about, that it is through basket-ball, not academics, that we will attain the loftyTop-20 goal?

I too watched the meteoric rise of John

Wall and DeMarcus Cousins. It was excitingand exhilarating to watch them play, and towatch them win.

But my feelings soured when almost theentire starting lineup left UK. True, Patrick Pat-terson graduated. But for every Patterson, thereis an Orton — a player who quit school, entire-ly, after his freshmen season was done.

It feels like being cheated. Imagine aCousins/Wall-led team with them as seniors:four years of learning how to play with eachother until they can almost sense what the otheris doing, that sort of sixth sense that is laudedand comes only though experience; four yearsof Calipari’s admittedly skilled coaching.

Imagine if Knight stayed and tried again forthe national championship that was almostwithin our grasp, and then think if we could’vedone anything other than win.

This is why it feels so cheap when theydrop out of college and everyone reacts asthough it was something impressive. It doesfeel sad when we celebrate men in sports overthe professors that serve their collegiate func-tion. We have, in fact, become a semi-proteam where some people come for their edu-cation.

So, I ask, why bother? Why go through allthe trouble of giving them scholarships to aninstitution they have no interest in attending?They are not student athletes, then, not really.Not if they are just waiting for their eligibilityto the pros. Brandon Knight has already appar-ently thrown his hat into the draft ring. Whonext? Outside of Harrellson, who is planningon graduating from UK at all?

Because at the rate we are churning outbasketball stars, we might as well give up onthe academics. We are, in the end, more likelyto win another national championship than weare to ever become one of the Top-20 universi-ties in the country.

Women’s intuition can predict the fu-ture, foretell disasters and save theworld, but there’s just something about

the weather. The eyes on the

back our heads can’tseem to see bad weath-er coming. Sorry. Wecan’t be expected to begood at everything.

This explains whywe always seem to bewearing the wrongthing. And why meet-ing a boy with an um-brella is one of themost romantic sceneswe can imagine.

Any woman who has been stuck in awhite outfit during a deluge sans-um-brella knows what I’m talking about.

What about that day you wore a skirtduring the tornado big enough to blowDorothy back to Oz? Your anxiety builtas you felt updraft after updraft. Then,WHOOSH! Your vision was blocked bythe same patterned skirt you had justseen safely below your waist.

High heels in puddles (or snow … orice … or mud), strapless dresses in thecold, long hair being blown into lip gloss— these inconveniences make badweather just a little more annoying forus.

Why do we not learn from our expe-riences? Because you so kindly help us. Imean, honestly. Getting dropped offright next to the door isn’t exactly moti-

vation for us to dress more practicallynext time.

Don’t make fun of the girl wearingrain boots on a sunny day. Yes, the gar-ish colors, stripes and rubber duckiesdecorating her wearable fortresses of dryare tacky, but she is at least making anattempt to be prepared. She can’t helpthat her women’s intuition just failed her.

And don’t laugh at the girl in whitewho is looking more and more like shebelongs in a bad chick flick as the rainpelts her. Just open up that umbrella youalways seem to have on hand and fall instep beside her.

Good grief, could we get any morerain? Seriously. I still have a lot of workto finish before graduation, and every

time these storms comerolling in I wake up notknowing where I am.

On a typical rainyday, one can usuallyfind me KO’d in any ofthese four locations: thecouch at the Kernel,the back of MemorialHall, front and centerof 215 CB or literallyanywhere in my apart-ment … literally.

It’s aggravating re-ally, to not have a say

in the matter. You think I like sleepingthis much?

I’m like a sloth. It’s happened on

more than one occasion where instead ofstudying the final hours before a big testor finishing up a paper, I’m insteadballed up in the corner purring.

I’m no help when it comes to calm-ing the ladies either, for the same reason.I feel so bad for them, going on and onabout how afraid they are, while I’ve gotone eye half closed looking like a crazyperson trying to stay attentive.

I wonder if I’m alone. Oh hey it’s raining

againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Worshippers have the opportunity tounite Monday evening, as UK studentsand faculty are invited to come togetherand fellowship at University UnitedWorship.

Jessica Carter, president of CalvaryCampus Ministries, planned the eventwith members of Baptist Campus Min-istries, Calvary Baptist Church and Ka-tryn Eske, creator of United Worship.

“This year we decided to have aUnited Worship Service,” Carter said.

“The service will consist of several dif-ferent on-campus Christian organizationsleading a few songs, prayers and a veryshort drama.”

The idea was to create an event thatincorporated various Christian organiza-tions working together.

“We all wanted to have the ministriesbecome united as worshipers, instead of(being) separate,” Travis Ammon, amember of Calvary Baptist Church, said.

The event mainly consists of worshipmusic, but will allow time for an openmic session.

“Katryn will open and close the serv-

ice and briefly explain why she wantedto have this event, and what she wantspeople to take away from it,” Cartersaid.

This is an outreach event open foranyone who is interested.

“We are very excited to see our plan-ning finally come to fruition, and we’dlove to see a packed house,” Ammonsaid.

At the end, the backupshad defeated the starters bythree, but considering theyhad been spotted 14 pointsbefore the players even tookthe field, the starters actuallywon by 11.

“That shows the depth ofthe team; it shows the versa-tility of the team,” Trevathansaid. “We can fit guys wher-ever ... and if someone wasto get hurt they could fill in.”

UK head football coachJoker Phillips was pleasedwith his teams’ performancesin the scrimmage. WhenSept. 1 arrives and the Catsopen their 2011 season in

Nashville against WesternKentucky, Phillips thinks hethought UK could stay in thetitle race for a long time.

“I expect us to be in thetitle race for longer thanwe’ve been,” Phillips said.“Why not us? And I truly be-lieve that ... I might getblasted for saying that, butwhy not us? But our playerstruly have to believe that.”

The annual spring scrim-mage concluded UK’s springpractice season.
