Today I got an e-mail that pretty much symbolizes that class is close to being back in session. It was from WKU AD of communication, Todd Stewart asking which reporters would be attending WKU Football Media day in August.
As the summer draws to a close it's time to start really looking hard at the upcoming school year. There are plenty of good potential storylines to follow as we begin the fall seasons.
Football: Year two of the transition, a more difficult schedule. Plenty will come with this.
Volleyball: How the team build's off their at-large NCAA Tournament appearance after losing only one senior.
Women's Soccer: Had a successful '07 campaign. How do they respond this year?

Possibly ESPY?
Ty Rogers has been nominated for "Best Finish" in this year's ESPY awards.
The shot is one of four nominees in the Best Finish category. Other candidates for the award are the final lap of 2007 Pepsi 400, the overtime periods of game one of this spring’s Western Conference first-round NBA playoff series between the San Antonio Spurs and Phoenix Suns, and the end of the Pittsburgh Penguins’ triple-overtime victory over the Detroit Red Wings in game five of the NHL’s Stanley Cup finals last month.
I like Rogers' odds. Hopefully he gets to attend the ESPYs with his Dad. While it was remarkable at the time what he and the team had accomplished, what is even more remarkable is the constant attention it continues to get, and it was 5.7 seconds that did all this.
Incredible.
No doubt Rogers' shot is the best finish I've seen in person in my life. I'm saying that even after being at the infamous "Flea-Kicker" in 1997 when Matt Davidson caught the ball after it had been kicked for Nebraska to send the game into overtime with Missouri and then eventually go onto win the National Championship.
