“Never broken the top ten”.. well this thing only goes back to 2006, hence my question about 2005.

The loss of life on the lake was tragic and is a pretty low blow. Given the publicity the NCAA would’ve investigated if anything was amiss.

Re: Sacking own Ath. Dept.
“Not as bad as you try to make it sound”

Hah! They stole $18,000 worth of stuff from the athletic dept. Including 3 computers and 2 video projections (I just googled it). So I think “looting” is simple and accurate, especially since it was soon after they were informed they would not be attending a bowl b/c of the brawl.

Non-issue when you read his complete statement. I know the reading thing is tough, but just give it a try.

I have a question: Spurrier is beloved by the fans of the gamecocks. To the point they are naming race horses after him (Ref: ESPN’s PTI). So during his press conference following Stephen Garcia’s trangressions his statement was the following, ?They?ve got a president. They?ve got an athletic director. They?ve got a dean. They?ve got a whole bunch of people over there. So if they say he?s here, he?ll be here, OK? His fate is out of my hands. Let?s put it that way.?

So here’s my question: Who exactly is “They’? If he really cares about the university wouldn’t he consider himself a part of the university, and say “We have a president, we have an athlectic director….”

Thoughts or Opinions?

Still waiting on Cortney Vincent to get punished for that DUI…oh, missed the first series in the bowl game, but that’s b/c you already had two tater linebackers ineligible for that game, right?

And what’s with Tommy Bowden saying Vincent had a clean track record…since when does beating up your girlfriend and starting a locker room mutiny after the Maryland loss in ‘06 count toward that “clean” record???

#48. It is pretty incredible that there are that many arrests, yet USC has never broken into the Top Ten of the Fulmer Cup.

As far as our rivals are concerned, it must be nice to have guys on your team who kill people on jet skis while drinking at a lake house owned by a booster, yet no charges are filed and no NCAA investigation follows.

#52, it may come as a shock to you, but the largest % of theft is committed by employees. So, it is not necessarily surprising that athletes (employees) would “steal” pictures of themselves or their helmets to keep. The laptops were certainly not good, but they were all returned. Steal bad, but not as bad as you try to make it sound.

Would the coots have won the 2005 Fulmer Cup?

How many points do you get for looting YOUR OWN ATHLETIC DEPT.!!! Dumb@sses.

44- Huzzah to the past! Princeton and her two dozen titles laugh at your paltry sum, though she fully supports your desire to act as if games are still played with leather helmets.

Those of us living in the 21st century will continue to point out that your football team is not so good at the blocking and tackling, and (unfortunately for you) Charlie Weis IS walking through that door. As soon as they grease the frame a bit.

domer, when it comes to talking about rivalries, I don’t think Clemson/USC gets relegated to the “small ring” as you like to call it. Considering it is the 13th longest D-I football rivalry and 3rd longest continuously running rivalry (Notre Dame does not appear on either list with any of it’s many “rivals”, but Oklahoma does make decent contributions.), I think you’re making a tough argument.

But that is not surprising coming from a school that is really a rivalry whore (can you really call playing a service academy a rivalry if you’re not also a service academy?).

Oh, and Clemson beat Oklahoma in the one bowl game the two teams played against each other. South Carolina has played neither team in a bowl game; and Clemson has not played Notre Dame. I’m too lazy to look up overall series stats, but I doubt it does you much good.

nothing’s quite as funny as fans of two teams with a total of one title between them bagging on the most important team in the history of college foobaw for having one bad season – and even after that one terrible season, we’re still going to be featured in the big ring every weekend next season, while you guys will remain in the little pit in the corner…

perhaps when you’re done telling me how one of my alma maters with 12 titles is the sux0rz, you can bash my other alma mater and its paltry 7 titles?
