February 6th, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

It was a bad day to be an athletic director (current or former) in Florida yesterday, as two prominent Division I-A school administrations laid some smack down on their athletics programs.

It’s obvious already that the college basketball season is fully prepared to be just as nutty as the college football season. Here’s some quick notes from various games this past Sunday to prove it:
New Orleans 65, #21 North Carolina State 63:  The Wolfpack fall despite playing a New Orleans team that shot 10 percentage points [...]

USF now stands for “University of Shut the f*ck (up)”

October 25th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

These people need to be shot. Really. I’ll buy my first gun to do it.
Not only are ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit and Chris Fowler hating on the South Florida Bulls, not only are the Harris and Coaches’ poll voters downgrading them, but now a professor at the other end of the country. J. Michael Robinson directs [...]

The Games of the week

October 18th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

October 16th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

For those of you who didn’t see the 6:00 PM SportsCenter on Wednesday, you missed ESPN College Football “expert” Kirk Herbstreit doing one of those silly Sponsor-of-the-week segments. This one was the ‘Miller Lite Good Call/Bad Call’, where Herbie takes staged questions from Soccer Mom and uses his deft wit and hair to explain how [...]

WWL, experts just don’t get what’s up in college football

October 15th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

Thus, even though the coaches and Harris pollsters drank too much Kool-Aid to realize Boston College hasn’t played a schedule close to [...]
