Why the fuck does the music always suck on these highlight clips? Why can’t they just have some guy talking about the kid’s speed or strength or something.

NO MORE CHEESY HIGHLIGHT FILM MUSIC PLEASE.

You know, suddenly I have a bad feeling about all of this.

A lot of this is supposition, slap down at your leisure.

The thought that Miles might have been leaving LSU was one of the supposed primary threats to the werewolves with chainsaws et al in the MNC.

OTOH, the thought that Michigan might have been minus a coach next year left the Blue and Maize in a shitfit. The thought that some of the lesser coaches were getting talked about might have made them think that they were not going to beat tOSU for a generation.

WfVU, meanwhile, was dealing with a coach that it appears they had been screwing over re: their original contract, and was looking to get out.

The second that the deal with RichRod’s HC job at Michigan became known, though, I thought that this might actually have been the pentultimate screw job by Michigan against Ohio State, by way of them having a coach that knows current football strategy.

It is only now that I remember that Les Miles has said that he was ‘assisting his alma mater’ with the coaching search.

This turns the hire of RichRod into perhaps the biggest case of dual sodomy with chimney sweep brushes I can think of right now. Les Miles’ players no longer have the cloud of possibly leaving before the bowl, thus screwing tOSU; Michigan now has a coach that can run the Spread, likewise screwing Ohio; and there’s the purely technical point of RichRod getting some measure of possible payback at WfVU by dragging some of their supposed signed players along with him to Michigan.

If this supposition is true, then that makes Les Miles a supergenius of truly Lex Luthor-like skill.

Was that a highlight tape or a montage from the movie Wildcats?

Also, what was with the guy on the other team trying to tackle the G-Ville state guy after the interception in the first highlight. All he was doing was indicating which team had the ball.

I think they awarded helmet stickers for who could look like the biggest ass-hat after a play.

#75 wins.

I never made the connection until the other day…

A RR led Glenville waxed my Sue Bennett Dragons back in 1996 when I played there…

I don’t feel so bad now…

Nice for #22 to be doing the High School Heisman pose.

It’s worth noting that other major donors (including the guy the stadium is named after) pulled their funding already because of rifts with Rodriguez. That article is really slanted in his favor and quotes a couple of guys who really only came on board when Rod was hired and aren’t really long-term WVU donors.

Honestly I have to be skeptical of the assertion that Rod was willing to walk away over such minor issues. I’ll be the first to acknowledge that our athletic department has some issues but the suggestion that Rod left over the players selling back their books and entrance passes for high school coaches seems like bullshite.

Re #1, 3, and 9: Merry Christmas, Orson!

Kate, unfortunately, I believe that Fulmer Cup scoring commences on the day after the BCS national championship [sic] game, since it’s an off-season award. I guess we should give FSU some credit for uncovering this problem before the bowl game. It probably would have been easy for them to stall this until January.

In re #2 — about once a week, something like this pops up that reminds me that I never, ever, ever want to be president of a university. None of these things is a big thing in itself, but I can see how the WFVU prez would resent these demands so soon after the big splashout to keep him from going to Alabama. And boosters who take their toys and go home when the President does not do enough to keep the coach happy are a reason not to love college sports. No matter the school, your diploma is worth less if the president is not the most powerful person on campus.

#1: Is being convicted of a massive cheating ring counted for inclusion in the Fulmer Cup? Personally, I consider academic dishonesty at least on par with throwing sandwiches at people.

It wasn’t entirely clear, but I hope the WVU boosters aren’t withholding money for academic areas due to sour grapes in athletics, because that would be quite sad.

Those guys sure do showboat a lot for a college that has a lower enrollment than a lot of high schools.
