–Whiny-ass Glen Mason’s replacement at Minnesota: Broncos TE coach Tim Brewster. Brewster comes from the Mack Brown school of recruiting, which means there’s serious potential in the handshakes and mom-greasing department. (Mm. Mom greasing.)

Also likely is a contined dedication to the semi-cut-block system employed at Minnesota, whose offensive line schemes already look very similar to the Broncos with plenty of zone blocking, stretch plays, and daredevil lowblocks. D-lines of the Big Ten, continue to watch your precious knees.


Tim Brewster: does he look good at mom-greasing? Wait, don’t answer that.

–Despite a sexy and promising hot tub beginning, Carroll to the Dolphins is dead, dead, dead for now. This leaves an NFL coaching spot open and, in proof that dumb people can find piles of money, too, a potential job opening for Chan Gailey to leave Georgia Tech for a pro job. Gailey’s got a second interview scheduled for the job. Tech fans busy screaming something about a briar patch, and not wanting to be thrown in it.

Mark Bradley blames the complete lack of affection or desire by Tech to keep Gailey on Chan’s inability to properly apply lips to the right asses at Tech while mentioning his loyalty to Reggie Ball as a secondary reason for the change. We’d like to think not beating Georgia ever would be as good a reason as any, or perhaps the overall air of malaise surrounding the program from day one, or his disastrous depth chart choice of Reggie Ball as a four-year starter. (Still the worst four-year starter at a major program we’ve ever seen.)


Drink this for four years and see how you like it.

–Gary Crowton leaves Oregon to fill the vacant OC spot at LSU. Not the first name you’d associate with LSU, sure, but finding an offensive coordinator by the name of Snakebite Robicheaux is pretty difficult these days.

–We’ve decided to love Jim Donnan for a few very sound reasons. First, his hair’s always askew and gradiosely fucked-up; as a lifelong sufferer of the same disorder, we have to appreciate his success in life. Second, ESPN staffers avow that his coolness in person is unsurpassed. Three, he hates, hates, hates Rule 3-2-5-e and is using the WWL’s bully pulpit to say so. We tip our Molly Hatchet ‘83 mesh baseball cap to you, sir.

–Former Penn State player Lavon Chisley will be arrested in connection with the stabbing death of Langston Carraway. The body was stabbed 93 times in the attack.

–Early odds are on USC for next year according to the Wiz. Rick Neuheisel will give you eight to one if you get your bets into his pool before Friday–operators standing by!

–Finally, Andy Staples says four of the five underclassmen at Florida making decisions regarding the draft made especially sound ones, especially Andre Caldwell, whose draft status would have been immersed in the wave of quality wideouts coming out HOLY HELL IT’S CALVIN JOHNSON SOMEONE HOLD KIPER’S LEASH TIGHT, DAMMIT!!!!


A little too excited about Calvin Johnson.
