I love naps on rainy days: Brought to you by the Letter Q

This article is brought to you by the letter Q and Quincy Miller
So earlier today while succumbing to the temptation of Qdoba, I pondered over the 2011 recruiting class Kentucky has in the making. A class that is shaping up to become the best ever after getting verbals from #1 Michael Gilchrist and #2 Marquis Teague. That led my thoughts to the #3 overall player Quincy "Q" Miller and the fun times to be had on the blogosphere.

Big Blue Nation, which latches on nicknames tighter than a teenage girl to a vampire movie, would have a friendly nickname to play with in the headlines. Here are some, should Miller decide to become a Wildcat:

1) Q-Cards:  Instead of being prompts for what is about to happen, "Q-Cards" would begin appearing around the state with past poses, dunks, dishes, and other highlights of Miller and the Cats.

2) High-Q: Like the IQ, measuring intelligence, the High-Q measures a players collective dunks. This would be the new Legend of Cobb Touchdown counter poster-board.

3) 'Doba conflict: Since at the mention of Q, fans would tune out and start think about Kentucky basketball anyone arranging dinner/lunch plans would need to refer to the location as 'doba to avoid going hungry or eating alone.

4) QVC: The television shopping network will receive an unexpected television ratings boost after Kentucky fans will tune in expecting to see Quincy Miller highlights. Finding that the station is merely selling fake diamonds and Wolfgang Puck contraptions, they'll be forced to choose between Big Blue Merchandise and that pasta/bread maker combo.

5) Q: One should prepare to see the 007 references around Lexington in 2011. As the research and development leader in the James Bond movies, the Q of the Cats will have a similar lineup of hidden skills in his arsenal.

6) Q-Tip: Really, this one is just waiting to be had. Quincy is a big body, more than capable of excelling on the glass - leading for some put backs and tip-ins or Q-tips.

7) GQ: So sure, he won't be stunning suits and styling's of Lebron or Kobe. However, watching Q in Blue, that's got the making of a few magazine covers.

He is just a target and it's a long way before we will probably hear anything, but Quincy is a Kentucky target at this point, and if the present is any indication of the future, the Cats have been hitting bullseyes with those targets.
