KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Kansas City Chiefs have signed offensive lineman Eric Kush and linebacker Mike Catapano, leaving six of their draft picks unsigned as they begin a rookie minicamp. Kush was the first of the Chiefs’ two sixth-round picks out of California (Pa.), while Catapano was their seventh-round selection out of Princeton. The Chiefs announced the signings today (Friday). No terms were disclosed.

The Chiefs also signed 13 college free agents, including former Tennessee quarterback Tyler Bray, Florida wide receiver Frankie Hammond Jr. and UW-Milwaukee hoops player Demetrius Harris. The Chiefs were scheduled to work out their rookies Friday, Saturday and Sunday before the rest of the team joins them for the start of organized team activities on Tuesday.

May 10th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Drake forward Joey King, a Missouri Valley All-Freshman team pick last season, is leaving the program.  The Bulldogs announced Friday that King will transfer less than two months after coach Mark Phelps was replaced with Ray Giacoletti.

King averaged 6.9 points and 2.9 rebounds last season. King, a native of Eagan, Minn., played in all 32 games and shot 42.8 percent from the field.   Giacoletti says he respects King’s decision to leave the team.

May 9th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ray Giacoletti is getting a chance to build Drake basketball into a better program. Giacoletti spent three seasons at Utah before resigning in 2007 after back-to-back losing seasons. He was hired by Drake in late March to take over its middling program. Giacoletti says he wants to recruit players who will stay with the Bulldogs for at least four years to build a foundation for success.
