Idaho, Eastern meet in Cheney

EAGLES, VANDALS, HUSKIES UPDATED: 1:10 P.M.

Lost in the hype over GU-Duke and WSU playing in Seattle is a little backyard brawl going on in Cheney tonight (7:05; 790-AM).

Though there isn't a long story dedicated to tonight's showdown between 1-9 Idaho and the 5-6 Eagles, Jim Meehan has this interview with UI guard Keoni Watson. He also has more on his blog.

There's also our usual Thursday Big Sky roundup and the WAC roundup. And all the local games are previewed in our week ahead summary.

UPDATE: This mock draft from a couple of days ago at HoopsHype.com has Rodney Stuckey in the 24th slot in next spring's NBA draft. There will be more of these, of course, as the season goes on, but it's funny to see Stuckey's name out there when no one has a clue whether he – or any of the over underclassmen – will even be available.
