Hot, like July

College and recruiting:

Cori Close and UCLA have their first recruit - it's Lauren Holiday, sister of Jrue Holiday and descendent of basketball-playing parents. Lauren will keep it in the Pac-10, which just turned into the Pac-12.

Joan Cronan - the former women's athletic director at Tennessee - has been interim AD for the last several weeks. Not surprisingly, the veteran is finding her influence is growing. (Gwan, girl!)

WNBA:

ESPN finds that Sheryl Swoopes, 40, loves the game just as much as ever. You can't coach love of the sport, can you?

I feel badly for the Fever's Briann January, but she is dealing with her torn ACL.

The parity of the WNBA is a challenge for some players, depending upon what college they played for.
