The good people of the Midwest continue to invade our site–we couldn’t be happier. Welcome to all the Golden Domers visiting from the ND Scout.com site. We love you all, even if we sometimes chap on the Irish fanbase for their ever-skyrocketing expectations of their team. We don’t know anyone else who fits that description, do we?
Volunteer receiver Bret Smith and ex-quarterback Brent Schaeffer, who were both arrested (2 of Tennessee’s 11 this off season) and charged with misdemeanor assault, have entered into a plea bargain that carries no jail time. Both have pled guilty to “offensive touching”, which is a lesser charge, but sounds a lot kinkier than assault, and will be in a judicial diversion program for 6 months, after which they can seek expungement. We are not sure what the terms of their diversion are, but if in involves trash pick up on the side of the road, they already have the right colored clothing.
He’s no Loren Wade, but throw the name “Albert Means” around Alabama or Kentucky and see what kind of a negative reaction you’ll get. Means is allegedly the reason Phil Fulmer won’t cross the state line, and his sad, sordid case exposed the worst excesses of recruiting behaviors in the SEC. The Memphis Commercial Appeal has the full ugly story of how it all happened.(Bullshit registration required at Comm-Appeal; link courtesy of Fanopticon, who kindly added us to their blogroll.)
No Dreamland Barbecue for you, Phil.
The Blue-Gray Sky has what NPR would call “long-form” news on Notre Dame, including a interesting recap of West Virginia’s snakebitten and unrequited rivalry with the Irish.
How we missed this from We Are the Boys, we’ll never know. But here it is, better late than never: the Deion Sanders Hot Dog Express.
Channel 4 in Jacksonville is reporting that the mayor’s office in Jacksonville has submitted a proposal to try to keep the “World’s Largest Cocktail Party” in Jacksonville until at least 2010. The current contract is set to expire in 2006 and Bulldogs have been grumbling for some time now (mostly during the Spurrier whippings) that it is not really a neutral site and perhaps should revert to a home and away format (forgetting of course that the Spurr-dogg dropped 50+ on them between the hedges I guess). Hopefully for the sake of a really good 72 year tradition, the Zook era has deflated those complaints a bit and the game will continue on.
As you can see here, things can get a little wild in Jax for Florida-Georgia.
Over the last few days, we’ve noticed some increased traffic from the midwest thanks in large part to mgoblog. Well, we here at EDSBS.com would like to welcome y’all and give you a short cut to some of our stuff we’ve said about one of our favorite coaches, Lloyd Carr (the coach of the other school I was accepted to for law school), as well as one of our favorite coaches to politely jibe. We’ll give you a hint, he likes to wear a sweater vest. So welcome and stay a while.
UPDATE: CONGRATS TO THE MICHIGAN SOFTBALL TEAM FOR BEING THE FIRST EASTERN TIME ZONE SQUAD TO EVER WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP… AND UNLIKE FOOTBALL, IT IS A BONA FIDE CHAMPIONSHIP.
Is this picture too much sucking up? You be the judge.
The AJC asks Jeff Foxworthy to complete the phrase “You might be a Southern college football fan if…” Foxworthy obliges, and authors a soon-to-be classic phrase bound for a t-shirt to be worn somewhere in the vicinity of Sanford Stadium. You might be a Southern college football fan if…
2. You’ve ever told someone to “kiss my Spurrier.”
Paul Finebaum wonders if the bull market for the Crimson Tide is real or imagined, while fellow Mobile Register reporter Tommy Hicks takes up two pages describing how calm and collected Mike Shula is. Two seasons in, and it seems to us that Shula is still a sphinx of a collegiate head coach, even to those who follow the Tide’s every hiccup.
Jim Tressel hires a proven steroid user as the new strength coach for the Buckeyes, according to Fan Blogs. Tressel says Butch Reynolds, Olympic silver medalist and recipient of a two-year ban for a postive steroid test, will be charged with making the Buckeyes faster. You know, real fast, like Ben Johnson. In addition, Tressel also announced the hire of Sal “The Whale” Vanzetti as OSU’s new compliance officer and special advisor on gambling in student sport, Todd Marinovich as special liason for student affairs/drug policy, and Brian Blades as WRs assistant coach/advisor on firearms on the campus.
With Tressel’s new hire…
…the Buckeyes will all be as ripped as Groundskeeper Willie.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.
