Riley may cost Heat draft picks
The Associated Press
MIAMI — The Miami Heat may lose one of its two 1996 first-round draft picks to the New York Knicks to gain Pat Riley.
And Riley himself may want a piece of the Heat, according to a report published Wednesday.
Two Knicks officials indicated the team would be willing to settle its tampering claim against the Heat before NBA commissioner David Stern issues his ruling late
Pat Rilev
this week or early next week,
The Miami Herald reported
Tuesday.
The Sun-Sentinel of Fort Lauderdale also reported that both teams had agreed a first-round
draft choice would be conveyed to the Knicks when the Heat signes Riley. The Sun-Sentinel said the Knicks were seeking either the Heat's own 1996 first-round selection or the one the team acquired from the Atlanta Hawks in a November trade.
The Heat wants the pick to be conditional, meaning it would not have to give it up if it ends up a lottery selection.
Riley walked away from his job as Knicks coach in June with one year remaining on his contract. He has indicated he expects to coach in Miami this season.
The price of that may include part ownership of the Heat, the Herald reported today. Sources told the newspaper that they believed the coach would like 10 percent to 20 percent of the franchise and that the matter was being negotiated.
Dave Wohl, executive vice president of the Heat, had no comment on that matter.
But Wohl did say the team would not send Glen Rice or any other player to the Knicks as compensation for allowing Riley to coach this year.
"If there were any compensation issues, there would be no players involved," Wohl said. "We like our team. We like our players."
He would not say what the Heat was willing to give the Knicks, but cash and draft picks appear to be the only options.
Wohl is under a gag order from Stern stemming from the tampering charge. He refused to comment on an earlier report that Riley would be given a five-year contract worth an estimated $35 million to coach the Heat.
Riley has a 756-299 record in 13 years as an NBA coach. He won four championships in nearly nine years as coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.
Missouri player awaits decision
COLUMBIA, Mo. — A judge has ruled that Missouri wide receiver Rahsetu Jenkins should be allowed to play football until his rape case is settled, but that doesn't mean he'll be on the field this fall
The Associated Press
Tigers football coach Larry Smith has the ultimate say over who plays. Smith suspended Jenkins last month after he was charged with rape. A 24-year-old woman who is a casual acquaintance of Jenkins alleged he raped her July 13 at her home in Columbia.
Attorney Greg Wittner won a temporary restraining
Rahsetnu Jenkins
order Tuesday in Cole County Circuit Court that prevents Smith from enforcing his suspension policy. But the judge said he cannot order the coach to play Jenkins.
Earlier this month, Smith said that any player accused of such an offense is automatically suspended.
Most other college football coaches have the same policy. Smith said.
"I have a very strict rule and that's if you are involved, if you're charged with a felony crime, then you are suspended," Smith said. "My feeling is college football is a privilege, it's not a right. Our athletes have to be held accountable off the field, as well as on the field. I have to be held accountable."
Jenkins met with Smith on Tuesday night to discuss the state of his suspension. He said he hoped that his playing situation would be resolved by Wednesday.

"I think playing ball should not be taken away from me," Jenkins said. "But there are policies and I should abide by them."
EVERYTHING BUT ICE
Jenkins went out of his way to say that Smith, his staff and the players had been supportive. Nonetheless, being away from the football field is driving Jenkins crazy.
