Travel for the team, coaches, etc would of course not be an issue. However, when you are talking about a school whose fans travel as well as Texas' does, it becomes a real issue. Instead of driving to Texas A&M, Oklahoma et. al., now they have to fly to Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Distance is still an issue, especially when talking about a school whose identity is in part associated with the amount of fans that travel to away games. |

What's not to like about this. After all, we of all people should understand the growing pains that accompany bringing in a new coach with different philosophies and styles. This guy has been around and should be able to immediately continue teaching the players in the same manner or at least along the same lines that RR and Gerg want. Sure, they could have tried to pluck some NFL guy, but why? If the staff feels comfortable that Braithwaite can do the job, I'm all for it. |

With the collective bargaining agreement ending next year and owners looking for ways to cut costs, I think everyone assumes that a rookie salary cap would be a logical way to being to accomplish that. Also, it has been argued before that the players union would support a rookie cap as large guaranteed salaries for first round picks (as Long got last year) limits veteran free agents ability to also sign large contracts. Additionally, there is always the rumor of a 2011 lock out. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601079&sid=asOsf3eNNBPc Granted it is likely all posturing by the respective sides in their negotiations. However, if you are Warren, and there is even the possibility of a cap, or worse a lock out, it is not hard to come to the conclusion that entering now is the right choice, at least in my opinion. I would have loved to see him back next year, but I can't really blame him for trying to look out for himself given all the uncertainty. |

His lectures were a show. You couldn't take notes even if you wanted to as it was impossible to pay attention to anything other than his enthusiasm for the topic. And catching every word during lecture wasn't necessary anyway, all you had to do was complete the reading and not drool on your final and an A was almost guaranteed. If you couldn't get excited after listening to Williams, it wasn't going to happen. It's too bad you didn't enjoy him. He was absolutely one of my favorites. |

For me, Sharp's article, and those that have followed are not troubling because of a double standard between UM and MSU, or because of an agenda against RR, or the fact that the Free Press has decided the best way to stay afloat is to occupy the niche of antagonizing UM fans, it is their disregard for Dorsey himself. Other posters have talked about what a special day signing day should have been for him, so I won’t get into that, but as a caller on WTKA this morning said, the Free Press has forever tinted this 18-year-olds future just so that they could have a story. As he put it, these stories have removed any chance that Dorsey could have taken advantage of programs often in place that allow juveniles to have their records expunged after a certain period of time. This is no longer an option for him. Even if he were allowed to have his arrests, acquittal, and dropped charged removed from him record, a simple google search, not even a background check, would turn up the Free Press’s story. So, were they correct in reporting this? Sure. Was it considerate to this young man or his family, not even close. They turned a non-story into something that will now forever follow him, just so they could up their page views for a day or two. That is what troubles me. Anyway, can we all move on? Lets congratulate Demar for his achievements so far and what must be the accomplishment of a dream to play major college football at great school. He will have the chance to truly make a life for himself. But beyond that, can we not talk about this again. Please. |

I think the mistake would be starting over again with a new freshman QB. Tate will improve; DG can challenge for the job in 2011 if he is that good. |

Try and get to the Sunroon Cafe for breakfast. It's on State St. The blueberry pancakes are awesome and the Florentine omlet is very good as well. As for bars, when I went I made the mistake of trying to go to specific ones only to find out that for the most part, they are all the same. My suggestion is just walk around and go into one. There is a bar on pretty much every street, and you can get an idea of what the crowd will be like by looking at the people in line. If it's not your scene, walk half a block to the next one. Have fun, Madison is a great place. |
