I played football at a school that was a rival of the university that both my parents attended, my mom didn't care about the rivalry and supported my team the whole way, but I know it was a struggle for my dad but he crossed the line and supported my team while I played. Since I finished playing, he has gone back to hating my university.
Since we're talking about things that were not supposed to talk about can I start the rumor he's going to transfer to Arizona to be reunited with Rich Rod?
I wouldn't have any problem with using the last scholly on a guy that it sounds and looks like you could plug in at a few different posistions based off of your needs.
Most of those guys are still fairly popular within the SMU community still. Dickerson is like C-Webb is with the UM community. Most SMU folks realize that they will never be the dominant program in the state, it will always be UT no matter what, while aTm and Tech have their fair share. Not to mention Dallas is the Big 12's version of Chicago with alot of graduates from all the schools flocking there after graduation. But SMU is paying June Jones over $2 mill and they do a pretty good job of getting fans to attend the BS bowls they've made the last few years. Though that might just be an indicator of how big football is down here rather than love of the program.
Gotta be RGIII. He and Art Briles have made Baylor relevant. Which is huge and for all the talk of Stanford being no where near as good with Luck its true also with Griffin. He's almost like Denard with a better arm. Not as fast or as good. All faith be in Denard.
It's a shame OSU didn't get a shot. Blackmon against those CB's would be fun to watch. And WVU put up more yards than anyone else did against LSU and OSU runs the same system, much better too. I'll turn the game on in the 2nd half when LSU decides to show up and blow Alabama up and hope Saban's head explodes.
Agreed. And its not like Arizona has been so successful over the last few years that any coaches have made it 100% neccessary to keep them around. If anything he should poach Lubick the recruiting cordinator at ASU who was a huge component of the landing all the talent at Ole Miss that Houston Nutt rode to a few Cotton Bowl appearances, or the WR coach at that landed 5...5! guys from Long Beach Poly this year.
I was fortunate to have a good coach in high school who sat me down at the beginning of the recruitment process who made it clear to me not to commit to a school until I was ready to fully commit and understood the magnitude of the action I was taking. On signing day your promising away 4 years of your life (20 hour rule is a joke if you ever want to play). I can't say I know what was going through the guys head but I'm sure he was aware of the risk he was taking in visiting Oregon. Its unfortunate to see how recruiting has become a game where so many kids jump and forth between offers but as disapointing as it is to see UM lose a big recruit its encouraging to see Hoke holding his ground on a posistion he made clear months ago. But on the bright side its not as if Michigan is short on highly regarded prospects to take his slot in the class.
He has no history of recruiting SoCal and recruiting in Texas is already difficult enough with the established relationships in the Big 12, SEC soon to have a larger presence and the few B10 schools that have recruited there for a while. Just my personal opinion, but it wouldn't be a good fit for RR. I'd expect UA to look at whoever the hot cordinator of the moment is before they'd take a look at him or even Mike Leach who'd probably be a better fit.
He wouldn't be a good fit in the Pac-12, he needs to stay on the east coast so he can rehire his previous staff and continue to recruit Florida. The ultimate job for him would be a Central Florida or South Florida, not that either will be coming open anytime soon.
Is the only conference that can come close the the B10 (12) academic reputation meaning Boise State has no chance in hell and BYU's religious ties have already eliminated it from Pac-12 consideration. TCU is a great fit in the Big 12 with solid non-revenue sports and an excellent football program but will struggle to compete with the big boys on a regular basis. A&M couldn't do it so its hard to imagine TCU being able to string together another run of 10+ win seasons in the near future, though I wouldn't underestimate Gary Patterson. The high school coaches down here love him and many think more of his coaching abilities than Mack Brown.
I think we've all realized by now that RR was an overated recruiter, but let's give the man his due as the premier locator of walk-on talent! Still searching for a positive about GERG.

This is Buckeye's trying to console themselves. Not happening.
Correction: When Petrino decides to leave in the middle of the season after getting whipped by LSU and Bama
GET ON THIS DAVE BRANDON!!!
The J.T. Turner of football coaches.

I thought Mattison said he wasn't going anywhere?

I think Fred Jackson disagrees, Dunn runs like Anthony Thomas with Tyrone Wheatley speed.
Love how Hoke gives all the credit to his staff and the players. Sign of great leadership.
Its all about the $

K-State got left out. But does anyone care?

Agreed.
He'll have a RS Sr. QB that is a pretty good athlete running the show for him his first year. Played last year when Foles was injured.

Yeah, he really left the cupboard bare...oh wait 9-2.

I think the Freep has Fred Jackson saying "He's better than Adrian Peterson with some Jim Brown to his game"
Thats the Flexbone, what Georgia Tech runs a lot of
Maybe Sparty can continue to nationally recruit and take him away from Oregon State so we can get Powe
DGB?

It all makes sense it would be a SigEp who would post ridiculousness. Scum of the fraternity system.
While I don't condone drunk driving. As a 49ers fan this makes me very very happy.
Jordan Payton=Pro style receiver.

You should not be posting about being at a Kenny Chesney concert. The man is 40 and still wears puka shells. Very State-Like.
But Palmer's got a great head of hair.
