Brennan Carroll will have to tell you he loves you in person. The Brennan Carroll “Mic’d Up” video from USCRipsIt.com has been pulled thanks to that dastardly COACH Rick Neuheisel across town allegedly using it and the copious profanities in the short clip of the USC tight ends coach working with walkons in negative recruiting. Pete Carroll said the intent of the video was a “spoof.” “As we went through the process, we were just having fun with it,” he said. “Sometimes stuff can be misinterpreted or misused or not received well.” It’s your fault viewer. Honestly, anyone who did not think this video was indicative of the kind of profanity a coach farts out in his deepest of slumbers, or that profanity has anything at all to do with character, can go…um…como se dice…fuck themselves with a morbidly rigid porcupine dick? You took away our tiny little fun internet film, you bastards. We do not love every one of you as Brennan Carroll does. Rich Rodriguez describes West Virginia athletics as “dysfunctional” in a deposition given in the ongoing wild holler-tussle over his $4 million buyout, citing Ed Pastilong’s sudden doubt in Rodriguez following the 13-9 loss to Pitt as the breaking point in their strained relationship. “… I was like, I couldn’t believe it,” Rodriguez said in the transcript of the session that lasted nearly seven-and-a-half hours. “I mean, that didn’t sound like Eddie. But, again, we hadn’t communicated. And that just reaffirmed that, geez, he knew me well enough to know that was throwing a little salt on the wound there.” Perhaps Pastilong had merely discovered Rodriguez’s secret Hispanomexicanasian roots, and no longer felt comfortable with a member of a different race. Maybe you should have told him sooner, Rich HUSSEIN Rodriguez. South Carolina hired Maryland special teams coach Ray Rychleski to fix their habit of letting the other team block punts. In seven years at Maryland the Terps did not have a blocked punt; in their final game against Clemson last season, the Gamecocks had two punts blocked, a double whammy for Spurrier in that a.) it’s a blocked punt, and b.) he had to punt in the first place. The loss cost the Cocks a chance to go to a bowl game. Tony Franklin is not a rat. Franklin, the offensive coordinator for Auburn, cranks out books like Isaac Asimov in ill-fitting coaching shorts, evidently. Not only does he publish his own playbooks, he’s also written a tell-all about his time coaching at Kentucky under Hal Mumme and penned a book entitled Victor’s Victory about the death of a Hoover High School football player. He plans to publish a monograph about the sporting birds of southern Alabama later this summer, and is also working on a screenplay about migrant workers in rural Arizona in his spare time. Kansas has to play four bowl teams this year. Mark Mangino is calling his real estate agent at this moment to complain about this. |

Kansas’ four bowl teams is in response to the abortion of a schedule they had last year.
Their south opponents were A&M, Baylor, and OSU. They avoided Texas, Tech, and OU.

I can’t imagine the Carroll video would make anyone go to UCLA over USC. Maybe Justin Boren, if he hadn’t already chosen tUOS.

If my kid told me he wanted to go to USC after he watched that video, I would slap him and punch his mother. What a bunch of BS from Pete-that video was sponsored by USC athletics-it said so at the beginning and end.

Thanks, West Virginia, for making a former resident proud!

Franklin’s book…while near impossible to find a reasonably priced copy…is not a tell-all.
I was kinda disappointed.

The fact that cussin bothers any football player is disturbing to me. If you cant take an ass-chewing, you don’t need to be out there in the first place.
Which hurts worse, a chop block that blows out your ACL or some firebreathing coach yelling “get your fucking ass moving you fuckwad dickbreath piece of cumstain”?
“sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me”
By the way, coaches can “cuss you out” without saying a 4-letter word, too. Ask anyone who has played under Carl Torbush (a great man, btw) if you don’t believe it.

The jewel of my sci-fi pulps collection is the great R. Iverboat Gambler solving crimes in “The Ears of Steel”. Jehosaphat!

Nebraska already has a statue of Tom Osborne out front of the facility that bears his name.
Just sayin’.

Ehhh, the thing about the SC video was the collective douchebaggedness rampant during the entire filming, not just the cussing.

O:
Thanks for including an article whose only purpose was to remind everyone that USC lost to Clemson last year. Not really news considering Ray Rychleski was hired 4 months ago.

No, Mangino will just have to change the staple of his diet from cupcakes to crow.
(I’m hung over and couldn’t think of any better. 36-28, suck it Beakers, you can’t spell “coc_s_cker” without “KU”, if I was from Kansas I’d kill myself, and all that.)

Seems hard to believe considering their non-con, but Kansas did play 6 bowl teams last year. But yes, it will be interesting to see how they handle 4 upper tier bowl teams (UT, OU, Methzou, Tech) and a few other toughies (Colorado, South Florida). Fortunately, Nebraska and KSu are still on the slate.
@ El hombre - No need to be resentful, your team won that game fair and square which I’m sure was fun for you for about 6 days until they had to win a game that actually meant something. Come to think of it, your football program is starting to resemble your basketball program. Some talent in place, but can never win anything legitimate and, if the Fulmer Cup is any indication, is full of rapscallionlike criminals. next thing you know, Pinkel will be canned for blowing lines off the Golden Girls…

Orson,
In regards to Carolina, don’t forget that UF blocked a punt on Carolina’s second possession just a week before the Clemson game.
Also in that game Nuggett Mitchell dropped or fumbled the first snap of the game, which UF promptly recovered. Then Dr. Baby Rhino set forth on a mission to make Carolina’s defense look even worse than it had the week before against D-Mac and Felix. Something, at the time, I thought was impossible.
Woe is me.

That is all.
