NO FAIR!!

fusing two players into one in order to make a more effective D-back should be against the rules

Urban, you should know better

I’m with Coach Switzer on the benefits of the large plastic bottle, though I prefer Black Eyes vodka. Yes, a real brand name. I dropped the bottle once and was able to catch it on the bounce thanks to the kung fu grip.

I didn’t realize Willie Williams ate anything but lobster.

I think that would explain why the DBs seemed to be running around in circles last year… when you fuse them, make sure they are facing the same direction.

What in a tornado’s ass is a kung-foo?

Aaron Corp has the edge on Mitch Mustain . . .

Rumor has it Mustain wanted to go home, but his parents rented out his room to the plumber, Mr. Echevarria.

It’s amazing how that “Tebow-recruited-as-LB-to-fool-Snead-Urban-bad-person” story has kept its legs.

Does anybody truly believe that yarn, especially as Tebow and Snead were at pre-college camps both as … gasp … quarterbacks? And Tebow was the most profilic … gasp … quarterback in Florida HS history?

I blame the blogosphere … for everything.

@Hiawatha

Real Genius?

Did that asshole Kent tap the line and air the conversation to the entire dining hall? (Kent, you unbelievable bastard.)

This is nothing a quick investigation into Pete’s phone records can’t solve…

It’s amazing how that “Tebow-recruited-as-LB-to-fool-Snead-Urban-bad-person” story has kept its legs.

I originally read this in that book, Meat Market, by Bruce Feldman, who followed Ogeron at Ole Miss for a season. Apparently this Snead kid saw Urban at a game recruiting Tebow and was positively shocked I tell you. Shocked!

Urban lie? Seriously?

What was that junk old Urban was spewing after the Woverines kicked the Gator’s butts in the bowl game? Didn’t he throw his team under the bus?

Urban cares for Urban. He’s the Kwame Kilpatrick of CFB.

@9 – elno lewis:

GO NOLES!!!

Tebow is the Farve of quarterbacks.

Glenville State is a prison, right?

The Song of Hiawatha Francisco,

Why cant Mitch and Mr. Echevarria share Mitch’s room?!!!?!

(btw, that’s some funny shit you posted there. Make sure your optics are clean.)

Yeah, good ole Barry Switzer doing analysis. This is what we can expect if Fox ever gets it’s dirty paws on the SEC.

Well, that and Petros: so bad, he’s good.

Cage match: Petros Papadakis… iskis…papa… dik… what? and Trevor Madich.

Also, “General Stoopnagle” hopes Wondy wasn’t in the end zone celebrating like that because it’s a “bad deal.” Just a “bad deal.”

Are we still propagating that ridiculous story about Urban Meyer telling one 5-star QB that he’s going to play another 5-star QB at linebacker during recruitment? It’s surprising just how long it’s survived since it’s utterly baseless.

URBAN MEYER = SCUMMIER VERSION OF DENNIS FRANCHIONE

Isn’t Willie Williams like 28 now? How long can you play college football?

I seem to remember a particularly good quote from Willie’s Auburn recruiting visit. fires up the google Ah, yes here it is.

During the wait, several of the female hosts, nicknamed the ’’Tigerettes’’, offered him some of their spinach dip.

‘’You know how it is, those girls are supposed to be there to cheer you up,’’ Williams said. ``But I told them, `I ain’t no animal, and I ain’t going to eat no plant.’

``But they kept pushing it toward me. It was disgusting. I told them, `I’m from Miami. I don’t eat that. You farm people are used to it, but not me.’’

Oh, sweet irony.

War Eagle, Willie. Enjoy West Virginia.

You can’t fool us. We know this isn’t a jab at Louis-Pierre et al, but a veiled attempt to motivate….

Oh I don’t know, I think that Snead is telling the truth, what motivation does he have to lie? Having said that, do I think that Meyer is different than any other HC, of course not. I think that these antics are just par for the course. For example, isn’t Belotti reknowned for doing the same type of thing?

Watching 2001 for the first time. Quck q, did we evolve from apes or tapirs? And do apes bark?

If Snead believes Tebow was being recruited as a linebacker (if in fact he was ever told that) he and Lobster Willie need to talk. Actually, they’ve both been on so many college teams they’ve probably already talked. Never mind.

Jevean Snead lied to save face. He obviously didn’t want to compete with Tebow or any other highly rated player for the spot. He thought he could get instant playing time by going to Texas which just lost Vince Young from the national championship team and Snead’s only competition for playing time was a little old 3-star redshirt freshman Colt McCoy. Snead got beat out, despite his 2-star advantage, and he jumped ship after only one season at Texas to go to Mississippi where he would sit out a year and then be handed the starting job.

I don’t know if the story about Meyer is true, but I’ve been in a house where coaches were there to recruit (lie, steal, oogle, woo- call it what you want) a 17 year old kid. Meyer wasn’t one of them, but some of your other favorites were. I could not believe the crap they spewed. I needed a shower after spending just an hour or two in the same air space with…well, fill in coach’s name here.

The story about Meyer, or any coach wouldn’t surprise me. They stoop to pretty much any level to get who they need. Boosters demand it. This is big business.

-Robert Marve didn’t have a gun on him, hence the suspension. Remember to pack some heat when you are running from the law young Robert.

-Don’t you think there are far better things (i.e. girls) to look at for Mitch Mustain? I don’t think the play book would be in the top 10.

-Maybe Urban was drunk and slurring his speech and it caused his “Q’s” to sound like “L’s” or maybe Snead was drunk and couldn’t make out the difference between “Q” and “L”.

-Ahhh its so good to hear from Willie Williams again. There is way to much to quote from that article but he says he can’t remember the last time he smoked pot. I can’t remember what I had for breakfast today, but I know I ate something, maybe some deer meat.

-Not only is the wishbone the best offense, they make a damn good dressing as well. It goes great with deer meat and gin.
