THE MORNING BREW
Strength and conditioning coach acts as Kansas' hidden weapon
According to Dictionary.com, the word "intensity" is defined as a high degree of emotional excitement. During the basketball game last week against Louisiana-Monroe, a friend of mine proposed a question that really got me thinking: Who is the more intense person while doing their job? Bill Self or Andrea Hudy?
For those who don't know, Hudy is the strength and conditioning coach for the basketball team. She is also said to be someone who will give you one of the most physically demanding workouts of your life.
Now, the common answer to this question would probably be Self, due to the fact that fans are constantly watching him get in his players' faces during timeouts. However, that would also be the answer for someone who has never heard about a "Hudy Work-out."
Much like Self, Hudy always finds a way to bring out the best in players and have them reach their maximum potential as athletes. She has been quoted saying that if you aren't throwing up, you aren't working hard
To go along with the customized workouts she has for each player, which are based on their body types and personal goals, Hudy also creates special meal plans and grocery lists, which players must follow in order to reach those fitness goals.
On the flip side, we have all seen the face that coach Self displays shamelessly after calling a timeout. Eyebrows pointed down,
mouth open, ready to let his players know what they did wrong. As soon as everyone sees that face on what might be the most intense coach in college basketball, we all know what's about to happen. Whether his intensity is used to help teach his players when they do something wrong or make sure his players stay motivated, Self's intensity is something everyone knows about. However, the great thing about him and what makes him such a great coach is the fact that he knows how to balance it between motivating his players and correcting them.
the abilit y to make life a living hell and still maintain respect from everyone around them like Hudy can. Believe it or not, she is the hidden secret to why Kansas basketball is as successful as it is.
As for me, I would probably have to make the conclusion that Hudy is the more intense person while doing her job. There are many coaches out there who can really get underneath a player's skin, but not many strength and conditioning coaches have

No.2 Spartans upset No.1 Kentucky 78-74
ASSOCIATED PRESS
At least at this point in the year. Branden Dawson tipped in a miss with less than six seconds left, and No. 2 Michigan State hung on for a 78-74 victory over top-ranked Kentucky and its latest cast of young phenoms in the first game of the Champions Classic on Tuesday night. As James Young missed a 3-pointer, the Michigan State fans — including the Spartan in Chief, Magic Johnson, erupted. Gary Harris held up his index finger, indicating the No. 1 ranking the Spartans (2-0) are sure to have next week.
CHICAGO — Experience trumps talent.
But this might not be the last these two teams see of each other. With four of the top five teams in the one-day tournament — Duke and Kansas played in the nightcap — it's no stretch to imagine this as a sneak peek at the Final Four.
The Spartans' Keith Appling came within two rebounds and two assists of a triple-double, finishing with 22 points, and eight rebounds and assists. Harris had 20 points and Adreian Payne had 15 points and four rebounds.
Julius Randle led the Wildcats (2-1) with 27 points — all but four in the second half — and 13 rebounds. Andrew Harrison had 11. But the Wildcats were hurt by early
turnovers and they were just 20 of 36 from the free throw line.
This was the earliest 1 vs. 2 matchup, and first since Feb. 23, 2008, when Tennessee beat top-ranked Memphis. The Tigers coach then? None other than John Calipari.
This game had even more hype,
mostly because of the Kiddie Cats. Much has been made of the youngsters, with good reason. The last time Calipari had a roster this star-studded, the Wildcats won a national title.
And this group might be even more impressive.
Six were McDonald's All-Americans, and all are considered lottery picks in next summer's NBA draft.
with Randle a possibility for the overall No. 1. The youngsters did nothing to lessen the hype in their first two games, with Randle averaging 22.5 points and 15 rebounds, and the Harrison twins averaging in double figures. No wonder the game brought out scouts from almost every NBA team and celebrities including Nazr Mohammed and Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukom Suh.
But the Spartans aren't exactly slouches, returning six of their top seven scorers. Just as important, big-time games like this are nothing new to them, with coach Tom Izzo routinely scheduling the likes of Connecticut, Duke, North
Carolina and Kansas before Jan. 1.
The experience showed early, as the Spartans harassed Kentucky relentlessly on both ends of the court.
But Kentucky has too much talent to stay down for long.
After trailing by 13 with 11:32 to play, the Wildcats came roaring back behind Randle, who left little doubt why coaches throughout the NBA covet him. He scored nine points in Kentucky's 13-1 run, including a "How'd he do that?" off-balance jumper from behind a sea of green jerseys. Andrew Harrison followed with a layup to cut Michigan State's lead to 60-59 with 8:05 to play.
Andrew Harrison and Randle
each made a pair of free throws, tying the game at 66 with 4:48 left. But Appling drilled a 3, and Harris stripped Randle at the other end and took it in for a layup that put Michigan State back in front, 71-66.
Randle wasn't done just yet. After Andrew Harrison's free throws Kentucky within 76-72 with 1:33 to play, the Wildcats pounced on an Applying turnover and Randle scored on a jumper. But Dawson tipped in a miss by Denzel Valentine at the other end to seal the win.
