Lane Kiffin to Urban Meyer: Cheaters never win and winners never cheat
Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin gave Florida rival Urban Meyer a shout-out this morning at the Vols recruiting celebration.
And that is not a complimentary thing.
Kiffin, referring to what he called a recruiting violation (the NCAA says it was not) that Meyer received in pursuit of eventual Tennessee signee Nu'Keese Richardson, told the crowd:
"I'm going to turn Florida in right now in front of you. Nu'Keese was here on campus (on his recruiting visit) and his phone kept ringing.
"One of our coaches said, 'Nu'Keese, who's that?' He said, 'Urban Meyer.'
"Just so you know, when a recruit is on another campus, you can't call him. I love the fact that Urban had to cheat and still didn't get him."
"We don't have a rule that states you can't call a prospective student athlete when they are visiting another schools campus," said NCAA spokeswoman Stacey Osborn.
Click here for Kiffin on video. http://www.volunteertv.com/sports/headlines/39140432.html#
Here is a statement from Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley:
"There was no rule violation and we have confirmed this with Southeastern Conference. It is obvious that Coach Kiffin doesn't know that there is not a rule precluding phone contact with a prospect during an official visit on another campus during a contact period. His allegations are inappropriate, out of line and, most importantly, totally false. It is completely unfair to Urban Meyer, our coaching staff, our football program and our institution. The appropriate action at this time in my opinion is for Coach Kiffin to make a public apology. His comments not only slandered our coach, but he violated SEC rules by publicly criticizing another coach and institution."
Oh yeah, the two teams play Sept. 19 in Gainesville.
Kiffin, and his assistant Lance Thompson, then turned their attention to Alabama with jibes about losing to Utah and how Thompson, a former assistant for the Crimson Tide actually did all the recruiting at the that school before leaving to join Kiffin.
"Nick Saban should have started his press conference (Wednesday) by saying, 'Our great class that we signed ... I'd really like to thank Lance (Thompson) because Lance signed eight of those guys.' "
I give Kiffin 3 seasons max before a complete washout.
he will either pawn or be an epic failure...im leaning towards the latter...but there will be no in between with him
and urban might drop 70 on the vols this year

Greg Paulus is the starting QB for Syracuse this year. How weird is that.
Nova scored 13 unanswered late in the 4th and beat Temple
those loser temple fans have been killing me being skeptical about temple. well look who was right.
a total embarrassment. golden is a fraud. why the farg didnt they just go i-aa this stupid ass college. this is a colossal joke.
ah well....6-6 this year instead of 7-5. Maybe they'll still have a shot at playing in this game.....the former Motor City Bowl:

yep...the Pizza Bowl. Really....
why cant they just spend the football $ on a bball practice facility. why.

how did I know you'd celebrate a sucker punch?
lol at sucker punch....kid ran up on him and put his hand on him...blount clearly overreacted but honestly if i just had a horrible loss and some punk scrub ran up on me talkin **** and touched me it would probably be on
Blount is a poor loser, he was the one talking trash before the game "we owe them a butt whoopin" or something to that effect. He ran his mouth, the other team won, the scrub had every right to throw it back at him. Blount's a punk.
Blount ain't nothing but a bitch
good for you looking up to him
(http://i29.tinypic.com/33emp9k.gif)
my man was OUT
Blount's a bitch but you don't talk shtein without your helmet on.
There. Can't we all just get along?
best part about that clip is the fact that dude starts to turn and smile to his boys like he got the best of him.... then gets his tooth shook

talking shtein after the game is waaaaaaaay different than doing it before the game
one is gamesmanship....the other is being a bitch
there is NOTHING worse than a sore winner
also if im a reserve bum who didnt play the whole game im probably not seeking out the most volatile player on the entire field and talking shtein to him...and if i do im not doing it then turning away from him with no helmet on
knuckle up....guard your grill
worst part of that is his Hoyda teammates just standing around. if i see a friend/teammate getting punched it's an immediate instinct to go after the dude. farging idaho.

they already are and if they had the same facilities as xavier and nova they would be better. they practice in the same gym i had classes in. they share the gym with the roller hockey team. come on now son.
what part of back to back a10 champs dont you understand
they still arent as good a program as xaiver which makes them not even the best team in a terrible conference
if thats a good program then so be it...but i wouldnt be proud....and i like temple
Quote from: MDS on September 04, 2009, 12:44:20 PM
what part of back to back a10 champs dont you understand
the part where winning the a10 is anything to brag about
a10 isnt terrible. its mediocre. and its a major concern for temple and xavier that they play in the same conference as st bonaventure and fordham. but blame chaney for not going to the big east when he could cause he liked being the big fish in a small pond.
but as for temple if they are consistently top 3 in the a10 with xavier and dayton i dont see how thats not good. its not great, its not where everyone wants them to be, but its where they are now and its not awful.
St. Joe's had a better recruiting class than Temple this year too.
Temple sucks.
id rather root for hitler than phil martelli. hes easily the biggest dick in big 5 history.

but as for temple if they are consistently top 3 in the a10 with xavier and dayton i dont see how thats not good.
i agree with this and i guess its just semantics but its good FOR TEMPLE
but temple isnt a good program
they are a non descript average at best team in the big picture of cbb who is happy if they make the tourney
villanova is a good program.
temple is an average program that can occasionally have really good years and get rolled in the 1st round of the NCAA tourney
nova is great
temple is good
st joes is average
i want temple to get up to great and if we throw in the towel with football we could have the $ to get it done.

Yeah, nice to know your bros got your back. bunch of Hoydas. They should of all jumped in and raped that bitch. Boise out here in November. I am sure that #94 dude will be heckled to no end.
yeah blounts career might be over but homeboys life is over...no chance he ever goes anywhere for the rest of it without giggles abounding
always nice when people with serious psychological issues and anger control problems grow up in violent ghettos and have the problems ignored and bypassed in name of intense athletic competition. go america.

taken to the street, lol
dont be mr literal....please
one cat was ready for it and the other wasn't...ha
you're ridiculous
one cat sucker punched the other. only a bitch does that. f him
one cat ran up on the other....put hands on dood talked mad shtein to dood then turned around with no helmet on and smiled like he was king
oh then he got touched
hows it go again?
alls fair....
theres no doubt dookie should have handled himself better but that white trash MA pos basically gave a crackpipe to a crackhead.
someone incapable of controlling their emotions gets instigated in the worst possible way WHAT THE farg DO YOU THINK GONNA HAPPEN
What Blount did was wrong and bitchmade. He deserves the suspension.
But what the hell was that dude thinking...first of all, keep your helmet on. For that alone he deserved to be taught a lesson.
He probably thought he;d get away with some smart comment because he was around his boys and figured ol boy wouldn't pop him in the mouth. Wrong on both accounts

yup
good ol jesus boys dont react to trash talkin the same way some project brotha is. one goes home to the farm the other goes home to bodies and sliggin. what motherfarger you think gonna pop some dope ass MA in the grill and which one gonna shove you and say "hey man."
I doubt he was one of those true MA country farm boys. Some of those dude's aren't afraid to throw. This was some icehole who was way out of his league.
If you're gonna talk, be prepared.
i feel like the worst part of all that happened is the fact that the boise state dood didnt play a single snap in the game
That's the worst kind of shtein talkers.
vigy and mds talking ghetto tough is cracking me up. middle class white boys fronting on an internet mb, backing up a bitch, ha.

Incidentally, I was looking over all the games that are scheduled for today and it occurred to me that it might be the worst opening day line-up I've ever seen. There isn't a single game I give a damn about seeing - just game after game of blowouts and who gives a fargs.

Ohio State almost blew a 2-TD lead to Navy but took a 2-pt conversion back 100 yards to preserve the win
Iowa almost lost at home to Northern Iowa but blocked a FG with 7 seconds left. Iowa gets away from the ball and a Northern Iowa player falls on it with 1 second. In the NFL it doesn't matter, but apparently in college the team gets another shot. Northern Iowa lines up again....and gets blocked again. ha

Lets see, talking ish before a game and losing, then punching someone (scrub or not) who threw your trash talk back at ya, is better? nope. Shut your mouth and do your talking on the field.

i was having a zesty weekend until i watched that game last night....thank you cfb...with apologies to soccer last night is exactly why its the GOAT sport
and i realize its week one but its gonna be real hard to top that as the game of the year
the speed and hitting on that field was ridiculous....its almost unfathomable how those two teams could be combined only be a couple games over .500 the last three years with that talent...horrendous play from the qb position is the answer but that isnt a problem anymore....jacory harris is a farging man...god i love that guy

amazing game. only bad thing is it took about 4 hours, but like a long movie, when a game is that good who gives a shtein how long it is.

i don't watch much college foosball....maybe the biggest game of the week but that's about it. in fact, i watch such a small amount of college ball that i probably only know who 2/3 of the players picked in the first round are. and that's mostly because of the bowl system. if the ncaa ever does away with the bcs and goes to a true playoff-type scenerio, then i'd probably be all for it and would follow it much more closely.
but as it stands now........farg it.

it already does noob
lol, no it doesn't, and i'm not getting dragged into this mulit-page debate with you again.
a regular season where 1 loss can kill a championship chance does not equal a playoff system.
the reason those games were so good yesterday is because theres no playoff...osu usc essentially was a playoff game in week 2...that simply doesnt happen in any other sport...yes technically osu could still make the championship game but most likely not...
if you have a playoff that game means nothing cause ohio state wins the big ten and gets in it
anyone of those three games usc/osu - sc/ga - mich/penn state will be better than whatever the best nfl game is this year and that includes the playoffs
There are dozens of games in the lower divisions of CFB that match the intensity of those games played yesterday. That doesn't diminish the playoff games played afterward, dookie.
The last sentence you wrote is just plain silly, though. I guess you started drinking early today?
the games will be better but in the end the champion is always a fraud. cant buy into that stuff.

the reason those games were so good yesterday is because theres no playoff...osu usc essentially was a playoff game in week 2...that simply doesnt happen in any other sport
there were 62 games played this weekend and 2 were worth watching. usc/osu and mich/nd. mich/nd likely had no championship at stake but it was still a big game for both schools. usc/osu were both putting their title chances on the line with this game. so that's 1 game out of 62 that really had any type of appeal to it. do you really think that 1 great game in week 2 means that the college system is not totally farged? because i would argue quite the contrary.
there are 2 possible scenerios to fix it. first is a playoff, which i won't go into because i know you don't like it and i doubt i'll say anything that hasn't already been said either by me or someone else.
so what the ncaa needs to do is fix the scheduling process. not sure why they allow schools to set up their own schedules, but imo, that's farging rediculous and the exact reason why in week 2 you only have 1 game with 2 power house schools going at it and the other 61 games are the likes of florida vs troy or oklahoma vs idaho state.
the non-conference schedules these teams put together is rediculous and the first 2 weeks of the college season are about the 2 most boring weeks in any sport.
what the ncaa needs to do is set up a rotating schedule like the nfl or mlb has when it comes to playing out of conference games. ie: afc north vs nfc north this year and afc north vs nfc east next and so on and so on.
if you really want to make college football meaningful every week, then make the sec play the pac 10 and make the big 10 play the big 12, etc, etc and just rotate it it every year. then you're going to get some powerhouse schools matching up against each other all year long.
actually there were way more games than that that were watchable and great....you just dont like college football and thats cool
i personally dont think there were ANY pro football games i could have done without this week (other than the eagles of course but it certainly wasnt a great game)
it's not that i don't like college football. football is football, so it's all good. i just don't put much stock in it because the bowl system is farged and national championship game is suspect almost every single year.
the houston (all hail kevin kolb) vs oklahoma st game was sick. i mostly watched that while occasionally flipping through a couple other games. osu/usc was great. nd/mich was great. didn't see ucla/tenn but it was a 4 pt game so i assume it was at least decent. other than that, damn near every game was decided by no less than 2 td's and only 2 teams in the top 25 played each other. that's my biggest problem with college fb.....too much top tier teams blowing out scrub teams during the first couple of weeks and not enough games between teams that should be about even with each other.
that's why i like pete carroll and jim tressel. both of those guys will pretty much schedule anyone, anywhere, anytime and aren't afraid of putting it on the line early in the year.
well no doubt there is a monster gap in the best teams and the worst in college football....thats why my girl doesnt like it...she cant handle cincy having 50 pts at half time yesterday....thinks is utterly ridiculius
but that stuff is going to happen when you have over 100 teams...however its more than made up for by the top games
i know every game isn't going to be even but i can't see how it would be a bad thing to schedule more marquee matchups like usc/osu earlier in the season. out of 62 games, to only have maybe 5 end up being worth watching at the end isn't too enticing imo.
PSU opens as a 29.5-pt favorite vs Temple
temple lost to friggin nova they are gonna lose this one by 50
from this weekend....
hi ho silver! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTjAppTguMY)
i would eat igys poop if the eagles draft jacory harris after next season. eat his poop i say.
wanna see the difference btwn penn state and the big boys?
penn state -29.5 temple
florida -29.5 tennessee
temple covered the spread. win.

temple covered the spread. win.
penn state as usual is a complete fraud....its insanity that they are in the top 5
basically
i only watched the first half as comcast is the worst company in the history of mankind, but they looked about as good as a top level mac team.
USC loses
TEN makes it a respectable game
FSU thumped the mormons
A great Saturday again

Great farging article. I recommend it to everyone.
man is danario alexander the truth...i dont know where he stands in terms of wr rankings but i like what ive seen
al toons kid just caught a td pass
holy crap anyone watching this michigan game
I'm about to go turn it on.
I'm also going to get to see Penn State - Iowa tonight.
And I'm excited to see the University of Houston - Texas Tech match up tonight as well. That motherfarger could end up being a 63-61 game.
forcier drove all the way down the field to give michigan a lead the very next play indiana goes off tackle for 85 yards....now foricer comes back down and sacores with 3 minutes left
that kid is ridiculous for a freshman
are you getting miami vt...probbaly not right...its regional....i am so looking forward to it
Jacory harris ftw
or TL
dook is getting eaten alive today in the rain and outplayed by tyrod taylor
WFU just came back from down 14 to BC in the last 5 minutes...holds BC to a FG in OT...gets first and goal at the 3 for the win and fumbles the ball.
:'(
temple with a very impressive win today
and how about oregon going back to their classic unis...god are those awesome
i just got oregon ducks shorts. they are godly.
and yes it was a great win for temple. perhaps the best in numerous decades. but no reason to hop on til they show they can win a close game.
Poor Tebow....you'd think Christ just died the way they talking about him.
He got farging smoked by a Kentucky DE.
Walked off and then carted into the locker room with likely a concussion.

Forcier has the mentality to be good. Cool under pressure.
Yeah, I got the VaTech-U game and I was disappointed to see the Canes get worked like they did. I wanted a great game with U coming out on top. CFB is better when Miami is a power. Hell, when all the Florida schools are powers it makes it much more interesting.
Going back to MICH-IND; The Hoosiers got worked on that call
So much for Sarkisian's UW coming out and building on that win last week; they are getting worked by Stanford.
UH - TTU is a good game on ESPN2
don't know why it was mentioned in the random Eagles info topic, but if you missed it USC's RB Stafon Johnson almost crushed his throat weightlifting
ESPN is saying he'll be hospitalized for a few weeks..damn
That has got to be fricken terrifying. 250 lbs resting on your adams apple. Damn.
Hawaii/La Tech on ESPN2. Because you care.
we do care since this is probably the only time we'll get to see the qb reid is targeting for the first day of the draft next year.
damn, helmet to helmet with the QB on the scramble, and the QB looks like he glew out his knee
Sorry Seabiscuit. shtein, you're last two Hawaii Warriors experiences have been riveting. Start making your Hawaii Bowl plans!
Just saw the hit on SportsCenter. Looked like the same hit Colt Brennen took against Fresno two years ago.
Here's a non Tim Tebow/crushed throat college football story. Warning. PG and Phreak might cry a little. (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/john_lopez/09/30/jerrod-johnson/index.html?bcnn=yes)
Why would I cry about the Texas A&M QB?
But the article is right, that guy is a legit prospect.
You just love the heart-touching stories is all. And this story touches hearts left and right.
i think russell cried, and he's trying to make up for his embarrassment of that by projecting his crying on others.
Why must you hurt me.
See now you've made him cry again, Mo.
Breathe deep, Russ. Its gonna be ok.
You beasts. I'm going find you, hug you, cry on you and then rape you in your sleep.
The ND-WASH game was a good one today. Too bad the Irish won. The Huskies should have won but could not hold onto the ball in OT nor could they push a TD through from inside the 1 (two failed QB sneaks).
The OK-MIA game is pretty good too. I like watching Jacory Harris throw. Looks like Randall

dare i say temple has a real shot at the mac east title and therefore a bowl bid? what.
and a month into the season, they have the same record as Oklahoma...ha
they have a nice little schedule too...they miss both north ill and central michigan the two best teams in the conference....a great season would have the owls getting blown out by one of those two teams in the mac championship game
they are not even close to ready for prime time but the mac east is so bad they could run it
the big thing is doing this for 5 more years and hope to get in with the big east if there is a conference shakeup. i get the feeling thats their long term plan in all of this, they arent set on being a friggin mac team.
I disagree.
They don't have the resources or the prestige to compete in this area. Rutgers, PSU, and to a lesser extent those zesty ass delaware colleges are going to take 99% of the worthwhile recruits.
dont matter
being in the big east and winning 5 or 6 games every so often is good enough. no one is demanding being ranked.
right except they will never be good enough to be in the big east for reasons mentioned above.

unless the big east essential folds and re emerges as a D1AA conference or at the very best a non bcs POS conference temple has no chance of ever being in it EVER
thats not they believe
thats the whole reason they kept a d1 program. they could have easily folded into a d1aa. but, figured if they got their shtein right and won in the mac, down the line, they could get back into a bcs conference and pull in that major $.
then its a dumber school than i even thought
yes
they also stayed d1 due to big time donors refusing to give $ unless they were d1, but the big picture plan behind all of this is to get into a bcs conference. it might take 20 years but they dont plan on being in the mac for long. in fact the contract is up in a year or two. theres a slight chance they go independent for a little if they think something may break in the big east.
aint my problem, i only care bout the bball team
FWIW, UD is trying to go D1 at this point. The Chrysler plant across from the stadium has been for sale, and the school has been rumored multiple times as the buyers. Only problem is the ground testing, its believed the soil is polluted as all farg. The ultimate plan by UD is to get a larger stadium, they're currently maxed out at 22k not bad for D1AA.

thats what i meant, umass.
its freelancing, covering a game for a paper for a stipend.
should be fun actually. doesnt pay bad, either. problem is i got about an hour drive on my hands.
if anyone cares colgate princeton in OT on the U
colgate top 25 sub div and princeton absolutely sucks
yes i know no one cares
princeton trying to send it to a third OT and give themselves a chance at the sub div upset of the year
fail
anyone see that first half mizzou neb ending
No, what happened?
2-0 game
3 pts would be huge
pouring rain
4th and goal from the two with one second left and they go for it
and score
You're drunk
in delaware stadium pressbox. it reeks of munson.
How'd you like it MDS, not a bad atomosphere for D1AA. Devlin is damn good.
UD fans are crazy. Usually because they're crazy drunk. It was parents weekend down there but apparently people were still tailgating by noon.
Didn't go to the game but heard they shredded whoever they were playing.
Blow out of a game but the fans were solid.
Awful press box food too. That was upsetting
its a good setting, they keep the trash out, and make it more of an event. I used to love back in the day when you were able to leave at halftime to drink in the parking lots, then they let you back in. Great memories. Oddly enough i worked some drunken game on my now wife at the homecoming back in 2000. That was after going on the Halloween Loop(drunk bus to a ton of bars) ending up in AC at 530am, and making it to homecoming at 10am. I still dont know how i lived.
Next time if you get a gig down there, hit me up.

They've really gotten strict this year (and last?) about the ticket situation. Students used to be able to just show up, show their ID, and get into the student section. But they had to start making them get the tickets days before the game because the student section was getting so overloaded.
Wait, why were you in the press box at a Temple game?
Your not press anymore.
he traded in his press pass for a spam card............which got revoked.
It was a freelance gig. I'm guessing you can figure out what that is.
Temple is a 10-pt favorite this Saturday. Not used to this...
looks what its done to temple fans. theyve been holding this stuff in for a few decades and finally feel they have the justification for sharing it with the world:

This is why we need to dominate the MAC for a few years and then get the F out of this conference. These a**holes show us zero respect and, meanwhile, the conference is a complete joke. There are 3-4 decent teams and the rest are an absolute disgrace to FBS football. Let these midwestern hillbillies have the MAC. We're bigger, more diverse and academically superior to any of these schools. Not to mention that the history of our athletics programs is something that these schools can only dream of. And if they think that we would EVER even CONSIDER moving our basketball team over to this BS conference, they've completely lost it. We don't belong playing in the sandbox with freaking Michigan directionals.
FSU Players Reading at a 2nd Grade Level? (http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/blog/dr_saturday/post/FSU-releases-NCAA-transcripts-Some-Noles-readi?urn=ncaaf,196189)
QuoteBrenda Monk, a learning specialist hired to work with athletes who had learning and physical disabilities, was accused of improperly helping students type, edit and write their papers. Monk, who testified that some of those athletes had a second-grade reading level, was accused of committing academic fraud. In one case, she was said to have let students use a study guide that had answers to exam questions for an online music course.
Monk has left the university and filed a defamation suit against Florida State.
This can't be right, can it? 2nd grade level?
really, phreak? you are surprised by this?
Honestly, yeah. 2nd grade is shocking. I wouldn't be shocked at 8th or 9th, but "See do. See dog run." is amazing.
And its sad that I would not be shocked at a 19-21 year old who can't read.

:-D
no shtein...it seems like they play there every week.
I need 'em to cover -1.5.
how are your other bets going
ive liked nothing today
i put a dollar on michigan money line for the reverse psychology win and thats it
Three game parlay:
Georgia Tech @ -6 = win
Central Florida @ -10 = winning 35-0
Texas @ -13.5 = play tonight
Seven game teaser:
Central Michigan @ -3 = win
Miami Fla @ +.5 = winning (too damn close of a game though)
Notre Dame @ -1.5 = losing (BC just took the lead)
Alabama @ -8 = losing (still 9-3 against Tennessee)
Oregon @ -4 = winning (22-6 against WASH)
Florida @ -16.5 = plays tonight
Texas @ -7.5 = plays tonight
Alabama and Notre Dame better get moving
i want tennessee just so i can witness the biggest meltdown of all time on the alabama board

true..I love the Bama ones. Classic.
farging BC is working ND. I hate the farging Irish. I should have teased the Eagles up rather than the Irish down, especially considering how tough BC has played these losers in the last few years.
Jimmy Clausen looks like he's about 45.
Its about to be 23-13.
lololol...yes, BC just coughed it up!! ND got it.
ND is pathetic.
nice j golden tate
this mia clemson game is banannas
I can't see that one.
But I watched Mark Ingram lose the first fumble of his career to allow TEN to score and make it 12-10 and I lose the cover. That blows my teaser. I was hoping Alabama would lose once it was apparent I had no shot. But holy farg Cody is a beast. Imagine him at DT in an Eagles uniform.
farg. Oh well...it was 20 to win 200 on that one.
My three teamer is still alive as long as Teas can cover 13.5. That is 30 to win 180.
Sweet...the Miami game is on here now.
lol at Notre Dame playing a home game in San Antonio next weekend.
this game just gets better and better
this is a bad fg for miami..;.you gotta get in the end zone after that first play
Yeah, they had to get in there.
Holy shtein!
thats why you gotta score a td
thanks, tim mccarver.
lemme guess another game you werent watching
i turned it on for ot. didnt even know it was happening. but that doesnt take away from the "6 is more than 3" discussion you math wizards just had.
again you didnt watch it
miami's first play in OT was a 21 yard run to the four....you HAVE to score a td after that...its not like they went three and out
lol at Todd...get in the game. They had to score a TD there. Total choke to not punch it in from the 4.
if they play some d its all good. i understand the point you were making but it came across as obvious and bland, ala tim mccarver.
your face is bland
your collection of philly sports memorabilia is bland....in addition to your personality AND physical appearance.
Anyone watching this Florida-MSU game?
MSU had a chance and ran a fake punt; dude had the corner and tripped. Tunrover on downs and Florida has taken over. Although the goddamn SEC refs farged up another one. Leon Lett was going into score for the Gators and Don Beebe knocked the ball out but they said TD anyways.
if you get big ten network put it on real quick
unreal iowa
Holy shtein :o
They couldn't move the ball all game long and go 68 yards in a minute and a half?!

QuoteLomax, a Bloomfield High School graduate who works in information technology, goes by the nickname "Pooda." He last logged into his MySpace page in March, when he listed his occupation as "taking care of my daughter."
On his Facebook page, Lomax's friends include Muhammad and 21-year-old Johnny Hood of Hartford, who was arrested shortly after the stabbing and faces charges of breach of peace and interfering with police. He was pointed out to police by Brian Parker, another UConn football player who suffered minor injuries in the attack.
Help me out here Todd, what's the purpose of this information? Why is myspace and facebook included in these types of stories?
theres a fine line some people cross and some people dont
basically anything on facebook or myspace is public information, but it is not confirmed via the direct source. so, its an easy way of getting some info about a person, but you cant just present it as a fact since its all unconfirmed.
sometimes its lazy, sometimes its all you got to go with (like here, this guy aint talkin nor are any of his boys). if im the reporter i check out the pages and if something is really noteworthy or interesting, i reference it. but i just dont throw it in there because i can. his myspace occupation and the fact that hes facebook friends with the other people arrested doesnt qualify as interesting. if he said on myspace something like "i aint do nothin" or "goin 2 party @ uconn 2nite," then you reference it. it doesnt prove anything, but its certainly noteworthy to mention.
I gotcha.
I just can't stand the whole myspace/facebook/twitter references on the fly without pertinent info included on those sites.
some of it is the mislead nature of editors who think that referencing social networking sites will somehow bring in younger readers and save their dying industry. it wont. and they dont care. so they encourage it.
some of it is reporters being lazy. some of it is them not knowing any better, because, and i can personally vouch for this, sometimes people who have no idea what theyre doing get hired.

so they cant get into the party cause they dont beat nobody but when they ask to play the big boys the big boys say no? even a one and down no return?
this sport has the best, most epic games but the end result is a bigger joke than the nhl. its so farging awful cause getting a 16 or 8 team playoff picked by a selection committee that judges who you beat and where you beat them (which could give boise and tcu and the like shots to go to bama, lsu, psu, etc. and play) would make them the best sport bar none.
but they dont and they aint.
no chance i hit that link because it wont have a single word of anything that i havent heard before
bottom line will remain that the current system makes for the best sport in the world and a playoff will only serve to lump cfb in with every other sport...zzzzzz

also the sec is just disgusting. epic game after epic game each week. abolish college football and just go with the sec.
EPIC fail by LSU, they spiked the ball on the 15yd line with one second on the clock. Gameover
theres really nothing they could have done because with no timeouts the second was going to run off the clock before the snap no matter what
other than at least snap it and try to make a play. That spike was the football equivalent to Chris Webber
worst 4th-and-26 conversion ever
Oregon kept their Rose Bowl hopes alive by scoring a TD with 6 seconds left then winning in double OT, so the Oregon/Oregon State Civil War matchup in two weeks will decide the Pac-10 champ...
and how bad is Notre Dame? Weis might be ready to leave at this point (and the $15M buyout ain't bad either)...
Weis sucks, but ND sucks worse. Unless they man up, and drop their academic standards, they'll never compete.

you cant get a snap off there because the clock starts when the ball is set by the refs not when the ball is snapped
anyone remember Dana Bible?
leukemia
Temple's defense and passing game didn't show up today, losing the division to Ohio. Looks like they'll get the GMAC Bowl in Alabama and face a Sun Belt team...
SHUT THE farg UP EASY YOU STUPID GUIDO
ha
so Virginia fired Al Groh. Maybe Golden ends up there?
maybe, rumors are they have an in house guy they like
i think golden sticks. if he was all about the best new job he wouldve gone to ucla 2 years ago. i think hes gonna try to turn temple into boise state east until penn state or something too good to pass up comes open.
Yes - it's totally plausible that they're going to replace a 40-plus year dynastic head coach at one of the top 5 college programs in the entire country with a guy who "resurrected" Temple - a program so awful they actually got kicked out of the Big East.
Seriously - that was Munson-like on the stupidity scale.
i didnt say they would, i said hed hold out for the chance to get that job.
my understanding is hes really only gonna bail on a cant miss stop, like coaching a program that may be able to win national titles. uva, umd aint that. some people are linking him to notre dame. i doubt its true, but if it is, hed obviously take it. from what i heard bob stoops is a shoe in there.
unless Stoops doesn't want to leave Oklahoma. The name I keep hearing for ND is Brian Kelly from Cincy....

being in the awful acc virginia has at least as good a chance to make a bcs title game than notre dame does
and al golden didnt turn down the ucla job as he was never offered it....he simply removed his name from consideration
ive had people on the in, not some chubby govt working loser, tell me directly he turned it down. i trust them. not you. he pulled his out name out of the syracuse discussion last year, but he was never really in it.
of course he/temple are gonna tell people it was turned down....makes dopes like you think temple is better than what it is...plus is makes al look moral and good
the fact is no offer was made and if it had been he would have been all over it
its nothing thats been widely reported. they sent out a press release about the syracuse thing cause they wanted everyone to see how golden was in contention for a big east job.
im pretty sure you are basing your thoughts on pure speculation while i actually have valid information. why are you arguing with me about temple? you dont know anything about temple.
nowhere ever was it reported that any offer to any coach (much less golden) was made at the time he dropped out....it would have definitely leaked to someone in the LA or philly media
ill believe that over temple and al golden who have every reason in the world to spin it how they did
it has been said in the philly media. its not something that they sent a press release about, but this is all where its coming from. i farging went there and covered that shtein for 2 years. i knew what was going on and talked to people who knew more.
youre just going have to trust me on this one, skippy.
Looks like Weis is out and the ND players are voting on whether or not they deserve to go to a bowl game
Bowden will announce his retirement tomorrow
Joe Pa wins
Joe Pa will probably retire in 2 weeks. the wins record is all he cared about
the Gator Bowl wants 6-6 Florida State instead of a more deserving team (even though the ACC sucked this year) just so they can host Bowden's final game
unless your 75 years old or igy, nobody cares who is deserving or not deserving in any bowl game except the title game.
bowl games are dated and pointless. its not high school. farg ending your season with some 1 week trip to mobile or detroit to play some school youve never heard of. give that to the temples of the world. let everyone else fight it out in an 8 or 16 team tourney. then maybe your sport will be legit.

its not about deserving or teams like temple wouldnt get in a bowl....its about fanbases and tv ratings
Richmond versus Appy State this Saturday. Will be a fun game.
tonight should be the game of the year in pro or college football...hopeffully it lives up to the hype...havent been this excited about a football game in quite a while
It should be a very fun game to watch.
Speaking of deserving a bowl game, how ridiculous is it that PSU may actually go to a BCS bowl? I am a huge PSU fan but they definitely don't deserve it. While it would be cool to see them play Boise State they will likely get trounced.
the ironic thing is if penn state goes it most likely will be at the expense of a team that whipped them in beaver stadium
i would love to see a penn state pitt fiesta bowl
PSU-Pitt would be money, but I don't think that will happen. Iowa is more deserving unfortunately for them the president of the Fiesta Bowl happens to be good friends with Joe Pa. Not to mention PSU's history with that game.
the big ten getting two teams period is a joke
Yeah true especially this season. I agree with Joe Pa though what kills the big ten is how early their season ends compared to other conferences. Everybody else is still playing and they have been off for two weeks.
that certainly doesnt help but what hurts it most is cold weather and a severe lack of talent which are definitely not mutually exclusive
Well the lack of talent is little overblown the top teams in the Big Ten usually recruit well and put a decent amount of players in the NFL.
penn state pitt in the fiesta would SUCK
penn state pitt in the alamo bowl would be OKAY

the seventh best team in the sec has better talent than the best big ten teams...the difference is their coaching usually sucks and they dont have the facilities and cash that huge programs like penn state ohio st and michigan have
I hope this Oregon/Oregon State game tonight is a good one.
what a game it was
cfb = goat
and the oregon throwbacks are insane
yea those jerseys were nuts
but how much better would this game be if it was for the right to go the playoffs instead of the right to play a game against a crappy big 10 team
it would have been worse cause it wouldnt have been in autzen stadium oh and oregon state wouldnt have been in the game
no dingus
you have an 8 team playoff
same regular season
committee picks the top 8
oregon is a lock if they win
perhaps osu is not in with a win but they win the pac 10 and fall into the giant pot of 3 loss teams so maybe they get in
either way the games still means a ton.
oregon state would not be in an 8 team playoff...end of conversation
fine, then they are still playing for the pac 10 title and to knock their rivals out of the playoffs
still an epic game. in fact more epic cause oregon has they lives at stake. and technically the winner still goes to the rose bowl.
other than texas usc there hasnt been a bcs championship game yet that could rival last nights game so i doubt many if any ncaa playoff games would
and for the record im not against a playoff i just love it the way it is
what does that have to do with anything
last night game would carry the same meaning if you had an 8 team playoff
an 8 team basically lets some teams on certain years lose 1 game and still have a shot.
and imagine if texas losses to nebraska. there is nothing to love about a computer deciding who plays sec champ. hell, its already fraudulent that boise and tcu dont get cracks.
remember, the big boys WONT play them. even a 1 and done. the system is rigged.
the fact that we are talking about this and talk about it all year is what makes college football unlike any other sport and so damn amazing
an 8 game playoff would make it just like everything else and much more boring
i say lima beans and corn together are a disgrace.
a disgrace, damn it!

going anything further than 8 would, yes.
but 8 limits to the top of the top and rightly gives the 1 and 2 easier games (fla/bama would dispose of ohio st, oregon would be tough tho). 1 slip up could easily mean that you are gone. 2 and you need a lot of good things to happen.
8 or 6 would be the ways to go. keep the bowl system for old people and schools in the mac and big 10.
So college football is, despite it's horribly flawed system and way of determining the National Champion, the most amazing sport because people argue about how terrible that system is all the time?
Jesus :bash
nm
So I woke up this morning, turned on the television, and was absolutely inundated with Gator talk on every local news station.
MURDER DEATH KILL.
sounds like someone is rooting for Bama today
this big east "championship" is banannas
holy christ what a game
3 awesome games already and it's not even 4 yet
Fresno State wins on a last second TD stretch, and instead of going for the XP and OT, they go for 2, ball is deflected to a 350-lb lineman who barrels his way in from the 3....53-52
Houston/East Carolina.....Kolb Klone Keenum puts up 56/75/527/5 TDs but gets picked off in the endzone going for the winning TD..38-32 East Carolina wins their 3rd conference title in a row
imagine if the pitt/cinci game was for the right to go to the playoffs. winner goes, loser goes to some random bowl game. IMAGINE.
bama florida living up to it
i would sacrifice igy to the gods for jacory harris and marc ingram
put your energy towards eric berry
no chance at Berry. Hope for McClain or Spikes, even though the Eagles don't think LBs are important
btw Nova is rolling and will face William & Mary in the semifinals next week
wrong....theres a chance for anyone in the draft...hell they got macklin and pimp the last two years
trade up for berry
and lol at thinking the eagles would take a lb in round one
Bama in the BCS Championship and cryin' Tebow and his Gators head to the Sugar Bowl to face Cincy
go nebraska
blow up the bcs
that would be a amazing if nebraska won...its shtein like that that makes this system so great
how is a computer deciding between tcu and cinci great?
because it breeds awesome debate
thats literally the dumbest answer you could give
because it breeds debate
so idiots discussing stuff on internet message board > a true national champion
theres the logic
theres no true champion in college basketball anymore than there is in cfb
its sheep like you that think the team that wins the ncaa tourney is automatically the best cbb team...or that the final four = the four best teams
think on it instead of listening to what youre told
man do i love cj spiller
whoever gets him is one lucky team
hes like a highly slept on reggie bush
farg, chaos avoided
that shtein at the end was sloppy too. a couple big nebraska penalties and then colt mccoy using the last minute of the game to move his kicker further away and almost accidentally run out the game clock
yeah texas is so fraudulant
Nebraska's kicker is a chokin ass dog. Nice kick off out of bounds at the end...coupled with the horsecollar and the hope to see that fraud ass BCS bown up goes down the drain. I wanted to see Texas lose. Frauds. Their fans have turned me against them. About as bad as Cowboys fans.
What an AMAZING CFB day. I DVR'd the Pitt/Cin game and watched the Tex/Neb live at home. Caught the SEC game in a bar.

tourney's at least put it in the players' hands, not some stupid farging computer that crunches numbers and picks 2 teams that it's programming "thinks" are the 2 best teams.
i don't really care it people don't think that some 13-0 team from the mac can't compete with the floridas, alabamas or usc's of the world. as far as i'm concerned, you run the table then you should get a shot at the title. if it's a blow out, oh well. but even if a boise st or utah only wins 1 out of 100 times, at least they get their 1 which is more than they'll ever even get a shot at under the current system.
Watching dozens of Gators iceholes slink out of the bar after their shtein team got curb stomped was the highlight of my sports year.
Incredible games yesterday otherwise. The Pitt/Cinci game was ridiculous.

its not just computers...there are voters involved as well....and while i love the nfl system as is....i dont think there are to many people that would be upset with computers and voters putting indy and new orleans in the superbowl
I trust the computers way more than I trust the voters. The computers can be set up to take all the factors that people think are important and to translate that into rankings without bias. The human polls are influenced by all sorts of bullshtein that has nothing to do with how good a team is.

I've seen a lot of computer rankings of the NFL this season... and believe it or not there are some that don't have Indy #2. It all depends on what criteria you set it up for.
Incidentally, the Eagles always do great in these rankings, because the Eagles always win fewer games than they statistically should. I guess no one's set up their models to account for teams coached by retards.

this discussion is awesome! long live the bcs!!
but yea, what if:
1 bama 8 osu/ga tech
2 texas 7 oregon
3 cinci 6 boise
4 tcu 5 fla
the teams that lose in the rd 1 are still eligible for bowl games (i.e. so if osu and oregon lose, they still play in the rose), the teams that lose in the semis play each other in some consolation bullshtein game a couple days before the title game. you can even call it the fiesta bowl.
who gets screwed? one of ga tech and osu. the both won their conferences and had 2 losses. oh well. you look at who they played and where they played and who they beat. maybe this will get those teams to actually challenge themselves in non conference outside of the made for tv big $$$ games like osu/usc thing.
if thats the deal next week how is not the greatest thing in the world.

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/12/usc-football-pete-carroll-charlie-weis-notre-dame.html
QuoteIn a question-and-answer session with IrishIllustrated.com Senior Editor Tim Prister, the post said Weis was asked:
"Is it frustrating to you Pete Carroll, for example, portrayed in one way ..."
The post said Weis responded:
"Let me ask you this question: You guys know about things that go on in different places. Was I living with a grad student in Malibu, or was I living with my wife in my house? You could bet that if I were living with a grad student here in South Bend, it would be national news. He's doing it in Malibu and it's not national news. What's the difference? I don't understand. Why is it okay for one guy to do things like that, but for me, I'm scrutinized when I swear. I'm sorry for swearing; absolve my sins."
Carroll said in a telephone interview that he was apprised of the report by Tim Tessalone, USC's sports information director.
"It's untrue, it's irresponsible, and it's incredible he'd be talking about me like that," Carroll said of Weis.

the whole set bowl areas is silly.
why cant things just get logically worked out. like rutgers/temple @ the linc. dont matter when.
welp it's not Toronto either.....it's the EagleBank in DC vs either Army (if they beat Navy) or UCLA

you dont have to worry about that because the nfl plays it out...the point is the college system gets the best two teams in their final as much if not more than the pro system does....the difference is the college system has a season long playoff where as the nfl has a three week playoff
youll never get it, will you
its not about getting its about having a preferance...and i love the college system how it is...doesnt mean i want it in the pros but it works wonderfully in college...theres a reason cfb is the best sport going
so your preference is for media and coaches to pre determine that florida, alabama and texas are the best teams and to give no one else a shot unless 2 of those teams lose.

Brian Kelly takes the Notre Dame job. "Have fun getting slaughtered by Florida in New Orleans, kids. I'm outta here..."
what a fraud. bails on his school so he can team before the biggest game in program history to go coach a fading giant. well done, dick.
nothing says "fading giant" like a team with its own television contract.
nobody gives a shtein about being on nbc to play uconn and pitt in the cold of MA when they could be on cbs and espn in the south playing lsu and florida
And speaking of fading giants, FSU just landed the ESPN #5 recruit (CB Lamarcus Joyner) in the country today after landing the #6 (LB Jeff Luc) last week.
Bobby Who?
Do they take their own tests?
Brian Kelly, the latest bullshtein artist. He was just like Saban straight lying that he had no interest in the Bama job.
did he really....i only remember him saying a few weeks ago he didnt want to talk about it and he was focused on cincinnati...this was before a game maybe two weeks ago?
i mean last week he said he would entertain anything notre dame had to say and was going to interview
the problem isnt coaches doing this its players not getting paid

He was on the Dan Patrick Show awhile back and was denying it and saying why would he leave Cincy when he was the guy who was out at town meetings and all that crap trying to get the community to focus on Cincinnati football again. I bought into it and he sounded sincere.
He poo-pooed the interest ND reportedly had in him as being honored and flattered (they hadn't fired Weis yet) but they had a coach and even if he did get fired then he wanted to build Cincy.
well normally you don't come out in public saying you want a job when you are already employed somewhere else. regardless of where you work so i don't understand the problem. who in their right might wouldn't take the ND job over cincy.

not only that but you definitely dont talk about taking a job that someone else still holds...thats rule numero uno in the coaching fraternity
goldens name popping up possible for kellys replacement. so the central michs coach, bunch jones or whatever, who actually has won something.
The fact Golden has even made Temple competitive in the MAC is amazing.
so brian kelly is the coach at notre dame now and will not coach cincy in the sugar bowl. i know this isn't the first time this has happened, but i gotta say that i think it's absolute bull shtein that a coach can be hired by another school and quit on his current employer/school/team when there's still football left to play. especially when it's a school like cincy where the players about to play in the biggest game of their lives.....far bigger than what anyone ever expected of them and in most cases, the biggest they'll ever play in. and these kids are playing there because they bought into the line of bullshtein that kelly fed them in the recruiting process (probably something similar to what he said in his presser today) and he's basically turning his back on them. farging disgraceful.
why the ncaa doesn't establish a rule forbidding schools from courting coaches before the final game of the year is beyond me. or at least put a rule in place that prevents a coach from accepting a job with another school when there's still games left on the schedule.
Amen.
Totally agree. The ego-maniac coaches (and athletic directors and boosters) have helped ruin college football. People used to say they loved college more than the pro's because it wasn't about money, just about ballin'. That's not the case any more.
You guys are ridiculous. If I had a job offer that I KNEW was better than the one I have now I'd take it without a second thought. That's all Kelly did when he took the job in South Bend and he had every right to do it too.
farg the whiny douches he left behind anyway. Hoydas.
can't say i blame kelly for taking the job, although i do think it's pretty dickish to turn your back on your team and leave them hanging in the wind before the end of the season. i blame the system that allows the haves to rape the have nots a month before the biggest game in that school's history after the best season in the school's history. it will probably take them 20 years to put together a season even half as good as this one was for them.

Yes. I couldn't wait to see this. I just got done watching it on DVR and it was great. Corben did an awesome job. It was cool seeing some of the things I'd forgotten about or things I didn't know because I was still pretty young back then.
you and me both. especially all the stuff when schnellensdfhsdauisdauiper took over. i wasn't even watching college football yet. i had no clue that miami was as relevant as temple when it came to football just as little as 30 years ago. guess i just assumed they'd always been a big time program. they really were originators though with their brash style and swagger.
the part about them calling brian bosworth at 530am on game day and telling him they were going to whoop nebraska's ass was farging priceless. easily one of the best stories i've ever heard. loved hearing them talk about the fsu rap video too. i love me some prime time, but here we are about 20 years later and dudes are still talking ish about his jehri curl. farging awesome.
the only knock i have on the whole thing is i have no idea why the farg he gave shockey some air time. not only did he not play during the era that was covered, but he managed to make a total ass out of himself in the 15 seconds he got with the whole bloods/crips comment. lol. wtf does shockey know about bloods and crips? he's from some hick town in nebraska or some shtein.
Yeah, the Boz story was cool. And so was the camouflage and Jerome getting on stage and telling the team "lets go".
I was surprised that there was no mention of Ray Lewis, Warren Sapp, Ed Reed and guys like that.
i only caught a part of it but yea, not having ray and warren seems odd. those guys are media whores and would gladly talk about whatever corben wanted them to.
they need some kind of 30 for 30 marathon or put them all on demand or something. the next one about reggie miller at the garden is supposed to be amazing.

because the show was focused on the canes from 1983 - 1992 and those guys all played afterwards. which is really why i didn't understand shockey being involved.
also, the one other criticism i have about the piece is there was waaaaaaaaaaay too much rosenhaus in it. i could care less if dook went to school there during that time. he wasn't on the team so farg him.
he represents most of the U guys though
yeah, i get the connection, but the show was about the players and he really didn't have place in it.

big 10 wants to expand.
id obviously love to see temple in there, even though the big 10 is lame, but thats not gonna happen. most likely they poach rutgers or uconn from the big east and possibly then temple can slide back into the big east.
really depends on what big 10 wants. if they want a doormat they can take on western michigan or something.
lol @ temple being in the big ten...you really are delusional
it cant be uconn....it has to be a team from a state that borders a state that the big ten is in
purdues athletic director says they arent expanding
if and when it happens i hope so much its pitt...worst part about penn state joining the big ten was not playing a rival anymore
i think its either them rutgers or missouri
What about West Virginia or Louisville? The problem with it being an eastern team is that Michigan/Michigan State or Indiana/Purdue would be split between divisions. Another idea: Iowa State to tbe BigTen and TCU to the Big XII...
A quick draft note: Washington QB Jake Locker is staying for his senior season instead of getting picked by St. Louis or Buffalo...
Pitt is a natural choice although being in the Big East they still get an automatic BCS bid if they win the conference plus the Big East in mens hoops >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the Big Ten.

nobody gives a crap where indiana goes or purdue for that matter...divisional balance would be a very minor concern...anyway if you put tcu in the big 12 the same thing happens as they have 6 okie/texas schools in the south and tcu would make seven
west virginia has way to crappy academics for the big ten
iowa state geographically makes sense but they bring nothing to the conference...no tv market....no fans...no money...no basketball
louisville is certainly a possibility
my hope is pitt but i i think missouri makes the most sense...rutgers is a long shot but a possibility because of the ny market
of course this is all a moot point if nd were to ever get dropped by nbc and want in a conference...but thats probably not happening
romey pitt could care less about how much better the big east is than the big ten in basketball...the big ten give them so much more than the big east ever could...the $$$$$ discrepency is enormous
none of big basketball schools would take a step back from the big east to go to the big ten

looking forward to the espn 30 for 30 edition of "the u" tonight. basically college football's version of the fab 5.....except they actually delivered.
Yes. I couldn't wait to see this. I just got done watching it on DVR and it was great. Corben did an awesome job. It was cool seeing some of the things I'd forgotten about or things I didn't know because I was still pretty young back then.
I watched this last night on DVR for some reason I actually did know that Miami sucked before the early to mid '80s. Watching I forgot how much I hated them as a kid. I didn't mind a lot of what they did but when you completely show up another person and get in his face you deserve to have your ass beat.
Its funny a lot of these guys years later are still the same dumb asses. A lot of them were trying to blame the media for their thug image. I liked how Michael Irvin said its not the media's fault we were thugs.

Good deal. Montana fans were talking crap last year at the UR championship game. Of course, that Montana-App State game was one heck of a game.
Shady's replacement at Pitt (Dion Lewis) is a farging beast. He fumbled the ball earlier thru the end zone, otherwise he'd have two rushing td's already today.
Urban Meyer stepping down at Florida.
if by "focus on his health" he means a head coaching job in the nfl, then i agree with his definition.
I thought that too, but he'd really tarnish himself there if he used a heart condition as an out only to take an NFL job.
My thought?
Him and Tebow are a package deal to whichever franchise wants Tebow.
Welcome to Jacksonville, Urban and Tim!!
There was a piece in SI awhile back about him having some brain cysts .
Quoten a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Meyer revealed that doctors discovered a cyst on his brain while he was an assistant at Notre Dame that flared up on occasion due to stress. This seems to be the likely culprit behind Meyer's dominant, if too short, run at the helm of the Gators.
Know what would be funny as hell?
Mike Shanahan taking the job away from the clowns in DC who think he's a lock.
QuoteMeyer has been to the hospital multiple times since suffering chest pains after the SEC title game, a Florida source told ESPN. He has been diagnosed with a heart valve muscle defect, the source said.
The problem is not life threatening, a Florida source with knowledge of the situation told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. The same source said Meyer will remain in Gainesville in a non-coaching role to be defined later.
lol temple people already saying golden might be a name for the job
So much for that (maybe)...
NYT's guy who interviewed him last night has this on Twitter:
QuoteBREAKING NEWS II: Meyer informed his team of the possibility of his return at a 1 p.m. meeting today. Will address at press conference.
Looks like Urban has a case of the Favre.
Texas Tech suspended Mike Leach indefinitely after he supposedly locked Craig James' injured son Adam in an electrical closet... :-D
something is happening today @ 430. i cant remember what though.
fell apart in the 4th and lost to a 6-6 team going cross country
TEmple sucks... Looked like the big boys woke up in the 3rd and 4th. That spot on the run was the worst thing i've seen, the announcers were all over that ish.
Wisconsin beat the U 20-14 but the score isn't really indicative of the game Wisco was clearly better tonight.
Temple got ass raped by the refs. How the hell didn't they get the first down on the 3rd and 1? Then on the next play, they get stuffed on 4th and 1, which sucked the life out of the team. Barely moved the ball 20 yards after that turnover on downs.

however, you can change the settings so that they don't play automatically. if you don't have an espn.com account, register for one. it's free. then go to "personalization corner" and turn video auto-play to off.

herbie is a schill for the big ten he will twist any stat to make them look less awful
the big ten is not even on the same planet as the sec
I used to think that about Herby, but he is a hell of an analyst. You can say what you want but that is a surprising stat, I wouldn't even think that it would be close.
the end of that Northwestern/Auburn game was crazy. Auburn and the refs kept trying to give NW that win and they still lost...
and I was never a fan of FSU's program but Bowden's final press conference was great to watch. His wife had to come drag him off stage or else he would've answered questions for another 2 hours....

I am surprised no one has mentioned the Big 10 had a winning record in bowls this season.
because outside of ohio st who is a legit great program their most impressive performance was a loss (northwestern)
They won two BCS bowls this season, say what you will but they are as good as any conference outside the SEC.
they arent even close to as good as the big 12 or pac ten...at least not until michigan becomes a legit program again
friggin iowa was their second best team
I am talking about this season, the Pac 10 was a joke. Big 12 might be slightly better, but not by much. I agree about Michigan, but I am just talking about this season.
the big ten just beat 4 top 15 teams in bowl games in the last week but yeah they're a horrible conference.
Down year for those other programs obviously

:-D That is fargin hilarious, I really could care less who wins this game I hate both of these teams.
texas trying to make a game of it in the 2nd half and the refs trying to keep bama on top. 2 obvious pi calls missed by the same official.
That was farging pathetic. I hate both of these teams so I could give a shtein less but that is inexcusable. Also sucks for them to lose their most important player.
i don't mind texas. i like the big 12 so i'm rooting for them to pull it off.
Someone let me know when they get playoffs so they can actually have a champion.
Most Cowboy fans are Longhorn fans. So despite me liking to watch Texas play ball, I won't be upset if they lose.
But they are staging one helluva comeback, Frank Reich style.
Wow.
That is the main reason that I can't stand the Longhorns either. I probably would actually like them, because I love Austin. This is one heck of a game no matter who wins.
if mack brown doesn't have an andy reid moment at the end of the first half, texas would be in the driver's seat right now.

i farging love austin. what a great farging town. i was absolutely shocked the first time i went there to see just how liberal it was. it's almost nothing at all like the rest of texas.
texas d holds and gets the ball back to the offense with about 3:30 left in the game. down by 3.
time to turn the hoses on, bama gonna party tonight
gilbert fumbled the ball away inside their own 20. bama scored on an ingram td run. up by 10 now with 2min left. damn.
and he followed up the fumble with one of the worst ints i've ever seen. fork 'em.
saban damn near got knocked out by the gatorade cooler.
this gilbert kid is almost as white as his uniform. i don't understand how that's even possible when you live in texas.
McCoy is fine though and he's cool with losing because he's in god's hands now.

i look at it like this.....if anyone's going to hit my kids, it's going to be me. so if a football coach hit my kid and my kid told me about it, i'd whoop that coach's ass. then when i was done i'd whoop my kid's ass for being a tattle tale cry baby hoyda girl. then i'd farg something.

no, because i wouldn't let my kid get a tattoo. but if you want to let yours get one, it's none of my damn business. or the gubment's.
hell, i'd bet a kid would put more thought and consideration into a tattoo than most "adults" do. given the choice, a kid will get a tattoo of spiderman or twilight or something else that's important to them. and while the long term importance will eventually fade away, the fact is that tattoo is more important to that kid than the barbed wire armband or tribal tattoo is to the 20 year old douchebag.

lane kiffin to usc
who didnt see that coming
considering that all day long, local sports talk radio in la has been pimp mariucci as the favorite with a few other names as fall back options, not to mention that kiffin has only been in knoxville for a year, i'd say no one saw that coming.
i hadn't heard mariucci at all, i'd heard Jack Del Rio
and yeah, no one saw Kiffin coming
the del rio rumor was put to bed early this morning out here. rumor is that usc made an offer to him but he still has 3yr/15mil on his contract with jacksonville. usc's offer was around 3.5 to 4mil per year so del rio wasn't going to quit and leave that money on the table in jacksonville. at the same time, jacksonville isn't going to fire him (even though they don't really want him) because his contract is guaranteed. del rio denied getting an offer from usc but did say that he is not leaving the jaguars.
the names being tossed around most of the day were mooch, mora jr, herm edwards, norm chow and some coordinator from Boise St or something.
kiffin's going to crash and burn at usc and it will be glorious. i kind of felt bad for him in oakland but dude acted like a tool when tennessee hired him and now he's bailing on them after 1 year. farg that clown. he'll last 3 yrs tops.
None of this is interesting.

as they should be. dude came in last year talking a big game and then decided to go to socal. good call by tennessee replacing fulmer with that knucklehead.
part of the reason kiffin gets hired is his dad goes where he goes and his sleazy but good recruiting coordinator does too. gotta love big time college football.
Kiffens should have a blast recruiting when the Trojans are handcuffed by the NCAA.
I work with a ton of Tennessee alums, so today's going to be a lot of fun.
Although this is the third time that Lane Kiffin has been hired with a lot of fanfare, and I have yet to see any evidence that he's actually a good head coach.
pete carroll isnt a good head coach...he was basically a glorified cheerleader who surrounded himself with very good coaches...he was a great recruiter and master motivator...in other words hes basically lane kiffen...which is why usc went in this direction because its not really a change
basically anyone can win titles at usc (provided they arent on any sort of probation)
they're still investigating the reggie bush thing so it's possible (but unlikely at this point) that probation could still a potential outcome.
agree about carroll but i believe he's going to take several key members of his usc staff with him. you really don't need to be a great recruiter to get kids to come to usc because usc sells itself. great education, great campus, great location, great weather, etc,etc. however, seeing what's transpired with kiffen over the last 2 years between that mess in oakland and his antics when he first joined tennessee and now this, i just think dude's a bit of a drama queen and for lack of a better word....immature. and that's why i think he'll flame out there. he won't go 4-8 or anything but i don't see any national championships in his future either.
A bunch of UT's commits left school last night and the Kiffins and Orgeron contacted all of them to tell them they'd have spots at USC if they went west. Why should these kids trust these guys at this point?
(http://i47.tinypic.com/148ksw1.jpg)
Urban Meyer finding out that Lane was taking the USC job..lol
kiffen isnt getting a pro job and theres no better job in college...hes at usc for the forseeable future...certainly for the fours years this incoming class could stay for
because usc >>>>>> ut with or without kiffen. they'll get more exposure at usc and will definitely run a more pro-style system. plus, they won't be living in tenneessee.

lock discussion
I can't say I blame Kiffin or think he is a fleshpop for leaving. USC is a step up and he is familiar with it. Outside of UT fans I don't see how anyone can be pissed or care.
I don't really "care" but I thought Kiffin acted a fool last year after UT hired him and then he goes 7-6 on the year. Wow. And I also hate it when coaches bail on their team when you know that during the recruiting process they used words like "commitment" "loyalty" etc etc to lure the kid to their program in the first place. And its not like Kiffin had been with UT for 5+ years and won a lot of games for them and pushed through a few graduating classes. Dude was there 1 year. I don't fault the guy for wanting to coach the team he grew up with. I just think its bs that coaches can up and leave without penalty but if any of his recruits want to leave they lose a year of eligibility.
You should be well versed in those terms since you were a recruiter/liar. ;)
Skip Holtz left East Carolina for South Florida
Texas' defensive coordinator and Air Force's head coach each turned down the UT job, so now they're trying to bring Duke's head coach Cutcliffe back. He coached Peyton then went to Ole Miss to coach Eli...

the used tampon
was just reading michigan is going to have its first nite game in 2011
i saw that yesterday and was amazed that it took them this long to do it. since i'm not a die hard cfb fan, i never took notice to the fact that all of their home games have been scheduled during the day. it's actually kind of crazy to me that in 2010 there's still a sporting venue out there that has never hosted a night game.
yeah its like you knew they never have had a night game but had to hear about their first nite game to realize it
theres stadiums that dont have lights...but none near as important as the big house
no, i flat out didn't know they never had a night game. it's 2010. what kind of major college program doesn't have night games? pretty much every high school game in the country is played at night and yet one of the biggest college football programs in the country still hasn't popped it's cherry yet. for shame.
i know several of the ivy league stadiums are dark
and im guessing there are other small school stadiums around the country that are as well
that's the only thing dark about ivy league stadiums
small schools i get. michigan, not so much. it's one of the biggest schools with one of the greatest football programs in the country and they're just now playing their first night game. it's just crazy to me that for something as simple as a night game, they're like 60 yrs behind in the times.
theyve hosted 330 games that have gone into the dark hours. the penn st/mich games from 05 comes to mind
Delaware added night games a few years back, Michigan is getting Delaware back for stealing their unis
they both stole from princeton
who cares about some white ivy league school anyway? they probably stole their unis from africa.
i don't think ohio state has lights at the horseshoe either
guess you didnt see the epic matt barkley drive on musberger nite football last fall
Apparently they bring in temporary lights, they had five night games in the 2000s.

QuoteI had a discussion with Jim Ramsey, down here in Jacksonville, regarding Conference Realignment.
Here's my report:
1. Rutgers, Pitt and Syracuse are the schools which prevented a full discussion of Big East options going forward at the Presidents' meeting at the Big East Tournament. They specifically responded to Ramsey during the executive committee meeting of five presidents that it would be an unwise move to hold any sort of discussion of realignment options at this point. Ramsey is fully aware of the implications of this position coming from only the three Big Ten targets.
2. Ramsey & TJ are contacting Tranghese to get some help going forward in the Realignment planning...from Louisville's point of view.
3. Temple has asked to rejoin the Big East but TJ knows that they will not be allowed back in.
4. A faction of Presidents within the Big East wish to get to 9 FB teams immediately and have their tentative sights on 2 ACC teams. They see a 9-team conference as the optimum size from a balanced scheduling perspective.
5. Louisville realizes that ND's going to the Big Ten, if that were actually to happen, if the expansion is LIMITED to ND, would be a VERY positive development for the Big East and particularly for Louisville and several other Big East programs.
6. There is a group of Presidents within the FBS structure that want the NCAA to reduce the Championship-playing size limit from 12 to 10. If this could be achieved then, if the Big East could be preserved, the Big East would likely try to achieve 10 teams as its FB size..
7. Ramsey and TJ will be taking the step of working to consolidate common interest within the Big East FB schools. This is being done to protect Louisville's interest going forward. The three aforementioned schools may not see the wisdom of joining into this discussion.
8. A study of the TV Value of the Big East is being commissioned.
That's all I have now, but I would summarize that I was very encouraged that UofL is proactive (though the Big East is not)...and that Louisville taking the step of talking to Tranghese and moving to establish and consolidate common interest within some of the Big East schools is a big positive.
