STOP THE PRESSES! MATT "SCOOP" LEINART HAS AN EXCLUSIVE!

--

"Thursday, I had the opportunity to meet with Donald Trump. I was looking forward to it ever since we talked about scheduling the meeting last week. I met with him for 20-30 minutes and just hung out.

He's a very powerful man in the city. We talked about golf, the Notre Dame game -- just everything. Before I got sick this past weekend I was supposed to play golf on one of his courses. It was good to get a chance to meet and speak with him. Not a lot of people have the opportunity to do that.

It was exciting. What a great guy.

A KNEE SLAPPER

--

"One of my favorites was sneaking up on my teammate Awvee Storey. He has a bad attitude, and I just have to try and get him to smile."

"One day he was on the toilet reading the paper, and I snuck in with a water hose, turned it on him and sprayed him for, like, three minutes. He had all his clothes on, and he got soaked. It was hilarious."

ANOTHER LOVEABLE ATHLETE TAKES A TOUR DOWN MEMORY LANE

--

"I just knew my name was going to be called in the first round. I was watching the tube by myself while my dad was throwing a party in another room. I wanted to see what team I was going to and then join everyone to celebrate."

"When the first round was over and I didn't get picked, I started crying like a baby. I threw my jewelry out the window. I was trying to call people and see if I could give back the car I bought. I called my coach at Arizona and asked if I could come back to school. It was terrible."

DIARY OF A DOOFUS

--

"I went to a Billy Joel concert at the Staples Center on Wednesday. Billy Joel was rockin'. I went with my family and had a great time. I'm a huge fan. We were all waiting for "Piano Man." It was his last song. He saved the best for last."
