Everything I need to know about Hollywood can be acquired through one show: “Entourage.” The HBO series depicts the fictional young actor Vinnie Chase, played by Adrian Grenier, and his, well, entourage.

IU shows who it is against Bruins

By Ryan Corazza · Monday, March 19,2007 12 a.m.

Earl Calloway on a breakaway layup, clang. Rod Wilmont on a 3-point attempt, clang. Clang. Clang. Clang all game. Until, suddenly and finally, IU arose from its slumber. This is a team that succeeds, when and only when it’s knocking down shots from the outside. That didn’t happen in the first half of the Hoosiers’ 54-49 loss to UCLA on Saturday.

End of the road

By Eamonn Brennan · Monday, March 19,2007 12 a.m.

On a night that united two of college basketball’s historically dominant programs, the IU men’s basketball team made history of its own, but of a dubious kind . In a first half in which they had more fouls than converted field goals, the Hoosiers scored just 13 points, the fewest in any NCAA tournament game in the post-shot clock era.

Yes!Yes!Yes!

By Grace Low · Monday, March 19,2007 12 a.m.

There’s always a lot of talk in stylish circles in academia about sexual rights. These conversations generally center around individuals having a right to choose their sexual partners, the right to sexual autonomy and freedom from fear and abuse. Essentially, we as a generation and social group are very fluent in the language of “No.” No means no and that’s incredibly important; I don’t intend to diminish the vital importance of that sexual right. However, such emphasis on “No” leaves me wondering, what about “Yes”?

Feeling blue

By Matt Mattucci · Monday, March 19,2007 12 a.m.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The IU players didn’t have to say a word after their game Saturday night. Their faces said it all. Senior guard Rod Wilmont slumped in a chair, tears welling up in his eyes. Junior forward Lance Stemler paced along the back of the locker room, his eyes swollen and red from crying. And not a single word was spoken among the players.
