Here's the day's questions
One of them got Jim Boeheim and Bobby Knight, but they were all stumped by Dean Smith and Phog Allen.

Category: College Basketball Coaches
Answer: John Wooden (1949-1975)
Question that no one buzzed in on: What is UCLA?
Trebek: mumbles that he won all those NCAA National Championships.
WTF, Seriously?
As a test I called my 95 year old grandma, born in South Dakota, raised my dad in Fort Collins, CO, never lived anywhere near LA or Cali for that matter. She knew the answer.

Being woman is not an excuse
My mother knows, my sister knows. Of course, we are a Bruin family.
I am curious as to who the other coaches were in the category and how these woman did with those coaches.
Interestingly, all of the other answers were "Who is Cheatie Petie"
100 – He was known as the Humanitarian
300 – He was shocked, SHOCKED to hear that just$c* got sanctioned
400 – He never heard of Reggie Bu$h and to this date wonders why everyone is talking about him.
500 – He had to park on the other side of Jefferson because somebody’s baby’s mamma’s bosses’ SUV was in his parking place.
Tough category.
Wrong--gender has nothing to do with it
You have all missed the real reason our three panelists couldn’t figure it out: they are all southern cal Ph.d candidates (who got their fraud B.A.s and M.A.s at where—that’s right—usc ).
"Hi, I'm Earth. Have we met?"
I watched that show and I was STUNNED. I saw that come up and I thought they would all be fighting to buzz in first!

As a formerJeopardy champ
let me apologize on behalf of these nimrods. Even Sean Connery would have got this one!.
I guess the next category for this trio is going to have to be "Foods That End With “Amburger”
Come to think of it, I’m pissed I didn’t draw any of these cardboard cutouts as opponents. No mercy. I would have run up the score like Cheatey Petey at a high school game.
The next question, however, was a bit more difficult:
College Basketball Coaches for $800:
Massachusetts (1988 – ignominy)
Memphis (2000 – left just ahead of the police)
Kentucky (2009 – inevitable probation and highest bidder)
Here were the other answers in that category
400 – Bobby Knight (someone got it)
600 – Dean Smith (no one got it)
800 – Jim Boeheim (someone got it)
1000 – Phog Allen (no one got it)
After they missed the Wooden question they didn’t touch that category until it was the only one left.
The best Jeopardy! show is ...
the one where a UCLA student beat a Trojan at the newly opened Galen Center.
Wasn’t there a Stanford student on it too?
