I’m there

Shit’s about to get real

For discussion leading up to the liveblog….

Can Mark Ingram read?

Desmond says Tim Tebow is as cool as Hugh Hefner. The only time the virgin TT is uttered in the same sentence as HH.

You think Ingram knows anybody else who’s won the Heisman?

The only thing Cannon did better than winning the Heisman was printing fake money.

I’m hoping for an extensive Luther Campbell interview.

Ole’ Bo holding back his RAGE!!!!

Has there been a Bo Jackson siting yet? I love that guy.

I must be the only person who can eat a tomato like a damn apple.

I feel sorry for McCoy. He knows damn well he’s not winning the Heisman and he still has to sit there and listen the presenter talk about the time Suh made McCoy his bitch.

Yep, Ingram is just a really big 12 year-old.

If that chick from Colorado were legal Id say shes pretty for a nerd

Crouch looks like a nerd

SUH!!!

The chick is from Hammond

Dammit.

FUCK YEAH

GO MARK!!!

Good for Ingram. He seems like a good guy.

Yawn…..

Agreed, good for him. Also, I’d like to retract my “can he read” comment, I guess it was just nerves in the interviews I saw before. I guess he is a college sophomore….

@ 21

yea but SEC so I doubt he can read

Someone elsewhere made the fairly astute comment “How does Gerhart win the Doak Walker AND Jim Brown awards but lose the Heisman to another running back?” This is the enigma of the Heisman criteria.

How do you post comments over there? I’ve tried a few times and the don’t post.

What a giant bunch of trash that was. Cocaine cowboy guy is just another fanboy loser.

If I knew Stan Marsh and Kenny McCormich, we would road trip to Corbin’s house to get our Directv money back.

The U is dead… Long live the U,
/15 yards- excessive celebration

That live blog was the odyssey of our time

OrsonL you are truly a man ‘driven far journeys.’

A lot of great players.

A lot of great teams.

A lot of major league assholes.

I had to shit, take a shower, and smoke a cig at the same time just to ease off of that awesome…now, im going out to try out my new swagger

Just for those who aren’t familiar with the great Bernie Kosar. He wasn’t drunk or high. That’s just Bernie in all of his slurred glory. If the stupid rumor that Kosar replaces Mangini in Cleveland ever came true it would be the time to buy heavily in Coors stock just for commercial possibilities. I might even drink that piss to salute him.

For those that are interested, some of The U games are being replayed on ESPN Classic. Fight Club is on Bravo for that matter.

I’ve never seen a more loving tribute to ass-hattery and general thuggishness than “The U.” It was glorious. That said, DA U is Georgia Tech’s bitch.

All this documentary showed was that Miami football was a product of imperfect recruiting competition, in an econic sense. They had guys who no one else either realized were out there or who they could or would not recruit. This is what made them and FSU so good. Analogy would be how utep won the ncaa bball champ with the first black team, got guys who were otherwise overlooked. Once equillibrium got restored and everyone started recruiting there, miami and fsu shit out.

*economic

I see that the Heisman went to the second best running back in the ess eee cee.

Tha U was entertaining.

And Happy Appy lost a helluva game to the Griz in Missoula. Anyone who didn’t take it in missed one of the best played games of the year, 1-A or 1-AA. They did point out that Boone, NC was at a higher elevation than Montana’s stadium.

And it be freezing rain in Blowing Rock and I had to walk one mile home in it. 40 minutes of slip n slide. 4 wheel be useless.

You know who killed THA U?

THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA. 1993 USF&G Sugar Bow. I notice that it didn’t make that critically acclaimed bullshit melodrama about the boys in fatigues.

I loved the comment about building a statue to coaches when they were bitching about Foote not being more supportive of the football team. Yeah, we’ve got four of those statues next to our stadium. Bear Bryant’s is actually slightly shorter at 14 feet than his height in real life.

We killed that bunch of trash talking douchebag jerks. Lamar Thomas looks different these days. I’m used to seeing him at every Alabama home game become George Teague’s bitch.

And just as we were the knife that started tha U’s slow death, we are the daggar from hell’s heart that stabbeth thee, UF.

I gotta go. I gotta go measure the correct proportions for Coach Saban’s statue. Y’all should come check it out next year before we brain you with our Heisman Trophy running back.

32-13. Game Over Gators.

If the current decade hadn’t been so anti-fun, I would like to think Trick Daddy could have been Luke 2.0.

Alex Hamilton, you can go die in a fire.

I’m too wet to burn. Apparently I and everyone else in the mezzanine section of the Georgia Dome will be soaked for the next few weeks from Tebow’s tears.

In case Bama fans don’t know, you actually have to win your bowl game now to win the national championship, so don’t crown your asses just yet.

@Alex Hamilton:

You were great in Idiocracy.

I think I need a Xanax just to come down from the contact high from watching that.

This only would have been better as a 15-part Frontline special with Will Lyman narrating.

Alex H is misguided. The fatal blow to the U came in the BCSNCG in Tempe on January 3rd, 2003. When Cie Grant swung Ken Dorsey like a rag doll and tOSU beat them, ending their 34 game winning streak. They haven’t returned since. They show up on our schedule again next year in game 2 at the Horseshoe.

…or all of your ideas of Miami’s death are overblown. I don’t know how anyone can claim they died prior to, at the earliest, 2002, considering their 2001 national championship and controversial loss in 2002.

I also think they’re possibly on the way back up. I’m not saying they’re guaranteed a return to form, but they looked real good at the beginning of this year against a brutal schedule with a bunch of young players. They could be a force to be reckoned with next year.

Are we sure that was Bernie Kosar, and not just somebody’s
alcoholic mentally slow uncle used in a reenactment?

I don’t know who killed Da U . . .

But I do know that my Virginia Cavaliers, with our prevent-offense and our three-toed-sloth defense vaporized Miami 48 – 0 in the last game at the Orange Bowl; I still remember The Rock and a bunch of other Olde Tyme ‘Canes watching on the sidelines in stunned disbelief. The best part was the fireworks and the ’We are the Champions’ played on the PA after the final whistle.

So I guess Al Groh gets credit for tearing down the Orange Bowl . . .

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I think when Rutgers can penetrate your wall and take your players you are pretty much dead. At least the kick ass, dancing on the departed part is. Taking credit for the gutting just seems petty. Besides everyone knows it was the white man who couldn’t stand a bunch of upstanding black gentleman having a good time, taking payoffs from fucktard rappers, and stealing Pell Grants who killed da U. I’m looking in your direction Dr. Lou.

Notre Dame of the South (Bama) Dept:

’Bama will now try to convince the college footbaw world that this is their 11th Heisman winner and not their first.

^^^ ZOMG so original.

@47

You are so wrong…it is only our 10th Heisman

49 – Officially, according to your athletic department. But everyone knows that JPW deserved one, even if the AD isn’t man enough to claim it.

To completely blow everyone’s mind. Somewhere in that moral morass was a born-once Mark Richt, maneuvering his wimmin’

Today’s “Da U” Dept:

Miami is trying to go at it straight right now.

What team currently has the spirit of the old “U”?

Besides Tenn (assuming they start winning big with the Nukeesses of this world), I cannot think of any other team.

Richt graduated in ‘82, so I think the ’81 football season would’ve been his last. He just missed out on most of their shenanigans, I’d think (though he probably caught some of it).

The good folks at USC would like to know how Miami is taking credit for recruiting inner city players for the first time. OJ and AC would like to have a word with you about that. I knwo the movie is made by a Miami fan, but two hours of that nonsense, as if college football hadn;t been dominated by black athletes for the prior 15 years?

Dan Lebetard and Drew Rosenhaus really came off well, didn’t they? Too bad Vanilla Ice/Robbie Van Whatever ended up on the cutting room floor, or we would have had the perfect threesome of white poser Cane fans.

Good show, I had no idea that all Nebraskans were Nazis and that everyone in the media is racist. But seriously, that was f’ing crazy.

I could go for a full hour show on Sebastian the Ibis. There is clearly enough material there to fill an hour.

Also, the guys who were in the Sebastian costume during the heyday—where are they now? Probably a bunch of characters themselves.

If “Da U” gets released for sale, this live blog must be on the DVD as an optional audio track or a rolling script at the bottom of the screen.

Da U was basically the story of every inner city high school from Tampa to Seattle….and it makes me wish I had a time machine….

Dude, I vote for making that documentary a spinoff into a sitcom….kinda like “How I met your Mother” meets “OZ” and “The Wire”…….

I liked Schnellenberger before this documentary. Now I’m convinced he’s the single greatest American since Eisenhower.

58 – I think Patton is a much more apt comparison, IMHO.

Okay – I want to be the first one to bet; I’ll bet 1000 cocktails that I’ll be the first regular to this blog to have an idiot 20 year old co-worker come up to me and go “That guy with the pipe on EDSBS Coached at Da U? I didn’t even know he was for real.”

Like having one of the young pups come up to me two months ago and let me know that he had no idea John Madden was a coach – he thought he was just the video game guy.

And…. Go….

Didn’t realize “The U” was a documentary, was lookin forward to a College version of "North Dallas 40)… Still, haven’t felt better about bein a White Man since watchin “Triumph of the Will” in the Original German…
       And I did take a piss break but was the 93 Bama Beat Down totally ignored?? You know Bear Bryant & George Wallace were high Fivin over that one.
OK, they probably didn’t High 5, just ordered Toby the Butler to bring another bottle of Ancient Times…

62 – Well, I’m a regular reader of 21 years of age, and had I not wikied Schnellenberger after reading the “Top 25” bits, I wouldn’t have known that he was anything more than the coach of Florida Atlantic.

So, endure us ignorant whippersnappers not just at work, but here as well!

Thank you #37, I agree. I’m just pissed that Trick wasn’t interviewed for this documentary. I find it rather incomplete without him.

No mention of the 86 sugerbowl either. (huge underdog) Tennessee 35 – Miami 7. The first UT game I have vivid memories from. The whole thing was very entertaining though.

Yeah, to all the youngins out there, even FoxNews/MSNBC would be embarrased by the amount of slant in that documentary, but yes, still entertaining.
