CURIOUS INDEX, 12/11/08

He would say that was an abomination. From the e’er pithy car windows of Gainesville: HT: Sha-mac. But we’ve never been apart! The Mackenzie Brothers known as Dan Mullen and Tim Tebow may or may not have to be apart for the first time, as Urban Meyer says he has not had time to evaluate whether or not Mullen will coach the national championship game. Cute baby seal says there’s nothing to see here whatsoever. Bret, you really don’t have to make exceptions for him. Bret Bielema says he won’t break Bobby Bowden’s leg, which is what happened to the other ancient coach the Badgers faced, which really would only be fair, Bret. You can’t pick and choose with policies. They either apply to everyone, or not. “We’ll treat him better than we did coach Paterno,” Bielema joked. “Our first game against him we broke coach Paterno’s leg on the sideline. We’re not going to do any of that business.” Whatever. Watch your ass, Bobby, and watch it from both directions lest Jimbo Fisher get impatient and roll into the back of your leg and claim it was an accident. Now taking applications. Penn State’s backup qb Pat Devlin is transferring, leaving the Nittany Lions with Daryll Clark and his backup Nobody. PSU also has zero qb commits at the moment. His call sign is “Chop Block Forty.” Auburn’s former offensive line coach is so in demand he went immediately back to work as…um…a trucking executive. When Tony Franklin’s house is run through “Enter Sandman” style by a runaway truck, we’ll all know what really happened here. |

Hey O. In the category of baby seal news:
(I posted it below but I think it warrants repeating).
I want to know if OU is behind this!
“UCF officials told the Orlando Sentinel chatter about Florida defensive coordinator Charlie Strong replacing George O’Leary as the Knights’ next coach is premature.
It’s no secret UCF would be interested in Strong as a potential replacement for O’Leary, but UCF officials are denying widespread rumors and reports Strong has already been selected as O’Leary’s replacement.
UCF president John Hitt is still expected to make a statement today about his findings following the university’s investigation into Brandon Davis’ collapse.”

It’s the detail in the punctuation that makes me proud. The all-caps does detract some, but still, in today’s Internet age, I’ll take what I can get.

Paul Cianciolo-remember that name. That will be PSU’s backup. You know how JoePa will blindly play the Italian descent QBs regardless of talent (or lack there of). Watch your ass Mr. Clark!

Desperately trying not to crack up at the enter sandman reference…I don’t think the young whipper-snappers at work would get that one.

So Nall went into trucking……. makes me wonder how long it’ll take him to go nuts from listening to “Convoy” 7 days a week.

@ 1, This creates a whole new era of head coach in waiting. One where the future coach does not even have to be on the current staff.

I eagerly look forward to seeing how C. Florida performs under Strong. Perhaps the world will finally understand why Vanderbilt chose Bobby Johnson over Strong.*
* – Not to mention Johnson also coached at a school with similar academic handicaps prior to taking over in Nashville. Furman and Wofford having to legitimately compete with the likes of App State and Ga Southern seems patently unfair, but such is life.

So I take it Mullen would be Doug, who says “I’m really glad we got rid of [Meyer and Tebow]; they were really starting to bug me, eh”, while Tebow is Bob, who cries his eyes out when Mullen leaves?
Perhaps the funniest movie of all time. I’ve seen it probably 50 times..

Fuck UCF. Seriously. If they can’t take care of their players from the administration on down, they don’t deserve Coach Strong. Its bullshit what’s going on in Orlando and no one except Bianchi (God help us) is covering it. I wish him all the best, and I think he’s paid his due, but I would not someone of his integrity at UCF.

The comment on the window is referring to Tbag’s kiss on the lips last year, right? (can I get an ARP?)

Trucking ain’t bed of roses these days either, although it looks like he’s at a privately owned carrier. Beats begging & bribing 18 year olds and dealing with an incompetent AD, however.

okiedomer says:
like i said yesterday, i don’t think losing mullen will really hurt florida all that much in the bowl game, since tebow and jesus can run the offense just fine by themselves…but having strong distracted and/or hired away while trying to prep for OU’s offensive killing machine of death?
MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
it’s times like this when i’m kindof glad that nobody really wants venables (though i’m sure i’ll be cussing him when our secondary is getting skin grafts at halftime)

In a related story, Tubberville was spotted driving an 18 wheeler yesterday. The CB phrase “you got your ears on” suddenly took on a whole new meaning.

The best part of that story about Hugh Nall is someone asking him, post termination, if he was going to keep recruiting. How dumb can any one athletic department be?

Possibly worthy of the curious index, but did anyone see the All-SEC team roster? Absolutely frightening what they could do against any other conference roster.

“and no one except Bianchi (God help us) is covering it.”
God, remember when some people thought he had half a brain?
Now he’s just a bald headed, shit stirring attention whore.
