INDIANAPOLIS — Juice Thompson's tongue. That will be the enduring image from Northwestern's record-setting 75-65 victory Thursday over Minnesota.

Considering he scored 35 points, more than any player in the 14-year history of the Big Ten tournament, Thompson had a number of chances to celebrate big shots in his patented way — by smiling and letting his tongue hang down over his lower lip. He did it twice Thursday.

"It just happens out of instinct," said Thompson, the Lincoln Park High School product whom opponents have labeled an All-American trash talker.

Teammate John Shurna said that when the tongue comes out, "that's when he's toughest to stop."

And Minnesota had no chance against him in the second half. Thompson scored 22 points in 19 minutes, nailing 7 of 9 from the field and all six free-throw tries.

That's the latest from the authorities. Once you're familiar with these ideas, you'll be ready to move to the next level.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Tubby Smith says he's staying at Minnesota.

The Golden Gophers coach says he's working on a contract extension that will keep him in Minneapolis long-term despite speculation he could take another job after the season.

Smith made his comments Thursday after Minnesota was eliminated from the Big Ten tournament with a 75-65 loss to Northwestern. The Gophers have lost 10 of 11 games and their NCAA tournament hopes took a big hit with their latest loss.

But after the game, Smith jokingly told reporters the only way he would leave Minnesota is if the late-season collapse prompted school officials to take their proposal off the table.

Last year, Smith also denied rumors he was interested in the Oregon job by saying he was working on an extension.

Rick Santorum Criticizes Sarah Palin For Skipping CPAC

6:11 PM Rick Santorum Criticizes Sarah Palin For Skipping CPAC, santorum No Comments

When you think about , what do you think of first? Which aspects of are important, which are essential, and which ones can you take or leave? You be the judge.



How can you put a limit on learning more? The next section may contain that one little bit of wisdom that changes everything.

Rick Santorum, former Pennsylvania senator, criticized Sarah Palin for skipping this week’s Conservative Political Action Conference, suggesting she had other "business opportunities to attend to."

"I have a feeling that she has some demands on her time, and a lot of them have financial benefit attached to them," Santorum said, suggesting that Palin skipped CPAC because she wouldn’t be paid for her speech.

But Santorum is now downplaying his previous remarks, saying that Politico twisted his words.

"This article is garbage," Santorum tweeted, linking to Politico's report. "All I said was-she was VERY busy, period."

However, this would not be the first time Santorum has verbally attacked potential 2012 presidential rivals. Last month, Santorum seemed to slight Palin in an interview with National Journal. When asked if she was qualified to be president, Santorum replied, "She is born in this country, and she's the right age." He also trashed Mitt Romney, the candidate he endorsed in '08, for the health care plan he signed into law in Massachusetts. And last week, he suggested Mike Huckabee lacks the foreign policy credentials necessary to win the White House.

Tammy Bruce, a conservative radio host close to the Palin camp, accused Santorum of smearing the former Alaska governor. "It's patronizing crap," she tweeted. "Nothing less."
