Future Husky point guard Abdul Gaddy has been selected to play in the 2009 McDonald’s All-American basketball game -- and so has his former Bellarmine teammate Avery Bradkey.

“It’s a great honor,” said Gaddy. “It’s going to be fun and I’m going to get to play with Avery again.”

They're running late on the Isaiah Thomas segment of the ESPN2 talk show "First Take."

However, those who tuned in at the scheduled time got to hear Woody Paige's take on the Mike Leach football coaching situation at Texas Tech.

"Texas Tech officials were stung that with two years remaining on his contract, Mike Leach flew to Seattle to interview for the Washington job. Not the Oklahoma job or the Alabama job -- the Washington job! And it startled people because they are sick and tired of being used as sort of a stepping stone."

(By the way, the Isiah Thomas interview finally rolled around and he did fine on several familiar topics, including the origin of his name and who he patterns his game after, etc.)
