UH's Lanny Smith and the Lady Coogs' Schedule

I spoke with Houston Cougars' senior guard Lanny Smith at Saturday's football game between the Cougars and Tulsa; and, Lanny told me he's going to redshirt this season. Following the surgery on the broken big toe in his left foot, Lanny is wearing a bulky, cumbersome boot and walking with crutches. Lanny told me he is scheduled to see the doctor this Thursday to learn how the bone is healing; however, barring a medical miracle, Lanny told me he's going to sit out this season and take a medical redshirt and return to the basketbll court for the 2007 - 2008 season.

Before the football game, I stopped by Lady Cougars' Joe Curl barbecue grill to eat some of Coach Curl's good food: ribs, hot dogs, sausage, etc. The coaching staff had a few copies of their 2006 - 2007 schedule for people to pick up; so, I grabbed a copy.

I've known about their non-conference opponents for a few months; but, the conference schedule took longer to finalize.
