FULMER CUP: BIG CLIPSE FANS IN IDAHO, WE GUESS.

by Orson on Apr 30, 2007 10:09 AM EDT

People must fear Dennis Erickson like they fear the plague and fire, because nothing really happens at a program until he leaves. Then, like kicking over a rotten log, everything explodes when he leaves, as evidenced by the sudden outbreak of arrests at the otherwise peaceful, placid Unversity of Idaho.

To wit:

Idaho sophomore defensive tackle Marvin C. Jones Jr. was arrested after he allegedly sold cocaine to undercover police officers, Moscow Police Assistant Chief David Duke said Friday.

He sells coke! Not only does this earn substantial Fulmer Cup points for the Idaho Vandals, it also just garnered a guest slot rapping on a Clipse album. (They sell coke! In case you didn't know. LOTS OF IT WAMP WAMP WHAT.)

The bigger news is that more arrests could follow in what police describe as "a developing situation." For the moment, Idaho can pause at three counts of delivery of a controlled substance, each worth three points a piece, with charges undoubtedly pending contingent on how deeply Mr. Jones feels the "no-snitchin'" policy. That's Moscow up with a snowstorm of nine points! They do cocaine!

Given the fact that Don Erickson is now running game in Tempe, Mr. Jones might want to think long and hard, since the Golf Cart of Doom and Coach Erickson's Enchanted Beer Coozy can provide him no protection now.

Again: someday Dennis Erickson and a tumbler of scotch are driving into a volcano during the Hula Bowl. It's just gotta happen.

You know what’s awesome? The moment I saw “Idaho” in the headline I knew there was a picture of Dennis Erickson driving a golf cart into a volcano waiting for me when I scrolled down.

Idaho is quite the dark horse candidate; these 9+ points now bring them into 3rd place and within striking distance of Illinois.

I’m still shocked- SHOCKED – to see the zookers boy’s holding down 1st place.

It seems to me that most of these entrants get one big incident per year, then clamp down on the rest of the team till the season starts.

zookers boys aren’t in 1st place anymore; they’re 2nd to Penn State

Hell, Penn State’s lead is so massive if you add zooker’s boys in Illinois and Florida together, he’s still in second place

O —

Your predictions of Sodom and Gomorrah in Tempe are going to have to wait until Erickson has a year or two to bring in some of his own recruits. Once that happens, ASU is a 4 to 5 favorite for the 2009 Fulmer Cup.

Police Chief David Duke? That’s unfortunate.

“Hey, check it out. I got this space coke, man.”

“Oh yeah? Let me try some.”

“No, man. It’s like, my personal stash, man.”

“Okay, well let me just smell it then.”

There’s a Vladimr Putin joke here somewhere, but someone’s going to have to help me out… it’s Monday and my brain won’t get back from the weekend until about 3pm.
