This winter, high school gymnasiums all across Montana will light up with the sound of pep bands and cheering crowds. Add the smell of fresh popcorn, some school spirit and the anticipation of a hometown victory, and it is easy to see why high school basketball is such a popular sport.
Played during the coldest months of the year, high school hoops is an important opportunity for a community to coalesce in support of the local teams. Of course, high school basketball has always been big on the Crow Reservation. Hardin, Lodge Grass, and Plenty Coups have all featured state championship teams and many outstanding athletes over the years.

After being released by the Tennessee Titans on Friday, Tuff Harris signed with the team as a practice squad player earlier today.
"Coach Fisher called me after the cuts and said that they wanted to keep me on and work me into the special teams and on defense as well," Tuff said in an interview with CrowNews.net.
Tuff played in the Titans' games at Atlanta and Green Bay during the preseason. Against the Falcons, he recorded one tackle and had one punt return for five yards. Against the Packers he downed a punt inside the five yard line.
NFL teams were required to trim their rosters to 53 players by August 30th and can keep up to eight players on their practice squad.

Less than one week after being released by the New Orleans Saints, former Montana Grizzly and Miami Dolphin Tuff Harris has received an invitation to work out for the New York Jets.
The Jets will fly Tuff out to their training camp at Hofstra University in New York on Monday for a Tuesday morning workout. According to Tuff, the Jets have expressed an interest in his skill as a return specialist.
"This is really exciting," Tuff said shortly after getting the call from his agent. "The Jets were my favorite team growing up. I feel good for the workout and we'll see what happens. They may sign me right away or they may give me a call back sometime later this season, it's hard to say."
The Jets finished the 2007 season at 4-12 in the AFC East Division. They open the 2008 preseason with a Thursday, August 7th night game at Cleveland.

Two months after signing former Montana Grizzlies standout defensive back and punt returner Tuff Harris to a three-year contract, the New Orleans Saints released Harris in an unexpected move announced on Wednesday, July 30th.
Tuff signed with the Saints on May 27th after being released by the Miami Dolphins earlier in the spring. Tuff signed with Miami on Draft Day 2007 after a stellar career in Missoula and was released by the Dolphins at the end of the 2007 preseason but immediately re-signed with Miami to play on the practice squad and later made the regular season roster, eventually suiting out in several games and playing in the season finale against the Cincinnati Bengals.
"Right now I'm just going to wait to clear waivers and see what happens," Tuff said earlier Wednesday. "I'm going to continue to work out this season and hopefully an opportunity presents itself."
Tuff's agent is Ken Staniger of Missoula.

So how is Tuff doing so far as a New Orleans Saint?
Well, to make a short story long...
During preseason drills last year, as a Miami Dolphin, Tuff intercepted a pass from fellow 2007 rookie John Beck and returned it for a touchdown. Following the play, then-Miami coach Cam Cameron called practice and brought the team together for instruction. Coach Cameron told the team that Tuff had made a great play but because the offense was practicing under a scenario where the defense was protecting a lead late in the game, the best thing Tuff could have done would have been to take a knee after intercepting the pass so as to not give possession back to the opposing team.
One year later, Cam Cameron and Tuff Harris are no longer in Miami but
the latter is still returning interceptions for touchdowns in practice and the
latest comes at the expense of a 16-year veteran and three-time pro bowl
quarterback...
