LOUISIANA (STATE) PURCHASE: ASST. STRENGTH COACH ARRESTED

This article delivers.

at least dey dint f*ck with teh basketball team. cause you know coach brady would go denny green on der asses

wow, Booger McFarland just brightened my day which has been consumed with midterms. Tell me this is his name of his birth certificate.

Anthony is his given name, but he’ll always be Booger to us.

Well, Baton Rouge news just reported that although the officials at LSU are stating that these players did not know that the agent was at the coach’s house, the BR Police Department has reported that the players admitted to them that they met with the agent a SECOND TIME at a local restaurant.

Now, correct me if I’m wrong, but if these players didn’t take anything from the agent, it’s still a violation to meet with him (especially the second time) and thus they should be suspended for the season. If they did accept things, then they can lose all eligability…correct?

And I don’t know if LSU can be held accountable, unless they somehow knew of these meetings and didn’t report them and played said players anyway.

Thoughts?

“Travelle Ernest Gaines, 26, of Port Allen, surrendered to university police and was booked into East Baton Rouge Parish prison, the university said in a statement.”

There’s some kind of “A Lesson Before Dying” joke to be made here, but I can’t make it work. Suggestions?

As a USC fan, what exactly did LSU do wrong again?
I don’t understand the fuss. Sometimes the best punishment is a pat on the back and a “let’s try to do right next time, fellas.”

I’m all about justice.

Anyone see Weis’ recent bitching about the polls? I especially likes the way he singles out two SEC teams. Here’s the handy link: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=2637561

This is why the rest of the country sees the SEC as it does, a dirty win at all cost conference devoid of any morals

One of the teams [Tennessee] that jumped us had the same game that we had. They’re down, they’re playing at home and they win by a field goal," Weis said Tuesday. “Another team [Florida] that jumped us wasn’t even playing. They were home eating cheeseburgers and they end up jumping us. That befuddles me.”

I would actually pay to watch a video clip of Weis saying the word “befuddled.” It’s got to be hilarious, no way around it.

Video link at the bottom. The quote is about 75% of the way into it.

I don’t think he was trying to single out two SEC teams, they just happened to be the teams that passed ND. If the same thing happened with two Big 12 teams, his response would have been the same.

Charlie Tuna Jr. was in full spin mode, kind of funny, since he brags about being Mr. Brutally Honest Charlie.

He thinks Florida was home eating cheeseburgers, but, methinks, they were…hmmmmm…..drinking modestly?

“Another team [Florida] that jumped us wasn’t even playing. They were home eating cheeseburgers and they end up jumping us. That befuddles me.” – Charlie Weis

First off I am a ND homer, so we’ll get that out of the way. Tennessee jumping us in the polls I’m cool with, they beat Alabama. Fine.

Florida jumps us in the polls after we win our game. It wasn’t pretty but it was a win. Florida has a week off, and their last game was a LOSS. If that crap happened to your team, you’d be pissed too.

Pile on the fat coach, that’s the nature of the business. So the way I see it, Notre Dame has to live up to some pollsters ridiculous standards, or Florida had one helluva bye week.

Charlie was just projecting onto Florida what he wished that he had been doing on Saturday.

Its Earning Season, Charlie, alot of Blue Chips will report profits and fall in the market for failure to meet expectations. Near misses to both MSU and UCLA may in fact be worse than a loss by Florida to Auburn on the road. But, at least you waited until right before your service academy run to bitch about the polls, unlike Tooberville.

I think you guys misread that quote, he wasn’t bitching about FL jumping them in the polls, he was pissed FL was home eating cheeseburgers and he sweatin butter on the sidelines worrying one out.

You guys may not know this, but cheeseburger eating is actually factored into three of the BCS computer ratings. This is why Florida jumped, the weekend was actually very productive, BCS wise. Charlie shouldn’t bitch, because I can’t think of a coach that will benefit more from the BCS’s new pro-cheeseburger policy.

All of YOU people that sit around and post, waiting to put your two cents about somebody else. First of all, we live in the US and it is innocent until proven guilty. Second, if you really want something to read, check out all of Travelle’s accomplishments. I’m sure none of you ever played ball or coached. Just a whole lot of wannabys with something to say. You don’t want to play with the BAY you bammas.

Rob G, great post.

Notre Dame coaches and/or fans complaining about the polls. Now THAT’s funny.

In a state where most prisons have gubernatorial suites, I can’t imagine this causing too many problems.

Someone tell Charlie that all he has to do is beat a few average teams without making the win seem “fortunate” or “lucky” or “the hand of god reached down and took the irish down the field in under a minute in three plays with no timeouts” and he will get a little BCS recognition. He probably thinks he doesn’t get much exposure from the media too.

Better yet, Notre Dame has more pull than any other single NCAA program, so why doesn’t he use his time in the spotlight to get us a playoff system and then everyone can stop complaining.

Weis crying about the drop in polls this week is a joke. He is either:

a) Stupid: “Tell me how that works?” Weis said. “Maybe I’m just stupid. Tell me how that works?”

b) Liar: He knows very well why other one loss teams passed him this past week.

c) A-Hole: With their easy schedule coming up, trying to work the pollsters is a joke.

I would vote for b) and c). Charlie is a lot of things, but a dumbass he ain’t.

Charlie, this may be considered flippant, but get on a freakin’ treadmill and don’t get off till I tell you.
