Drop shade and deep fades.  95-style, baby!

I'd take a WR that was trafficking the yeyo. That mofo could catch!

Robert Baker, the Touchdown Maker.

Also, a favorite snack of that flea-ridden mutt in Athens.

So more than 1 school realizes now that the dude is a con artist. How many more will it take before his musical chair act is up? I wanted to like the guy. But everything I heard that went on in the complex and under his tenure was just inexcusable. Perhaps that's why the "Deputy" roles. Keep dude away from FB operations.

Indiana just signed James Madison's corch, Curt Cignetti.   Kicked ass at JM, and was the recruiting dude that helped put Bama on the map in the late 2000's.

Sounds like a good hire, but why would you want to go to a perennial doormat, in a league that's just added USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington?

This but not really. Because what you speak is true but I hope they deeply involve him. They are old friends (Greene and AD) so he may do well in the assistant role. He was NOT ready for prime time.

I did respect his daring decision to go it alone but it turned out about like most of my daring decisions. Not worf a fuck.

First sane thing you've said in 6 months.  Okay, 7.

Whether the Barron Von Harsin hire turned out or not, it blew the narrative of, "Those evil, nefarious boosters pull all the strings", out of the water.

Correct...that AD was about the only one who defended the asshat.

[Hogwally]

I have heard from highly placed sources that this is going to happen.  Whether tomorrow or end of season it is a fait accompli.

Good call.

[War Damn Six]

Good call.

You should listen to him, he’s pre-law. 

[Kaos]

Good call.

Eh.  At the time they were sure.  My sources are better than Thamel's.  At least I don't just make it up as I go. 

Same sources were blindsided by the Petrino hire, though.  Hmm.  Maybe they don't know as much as they used to.

And I'm no longer pre-med.  The law it is.

I'll go on record that Sean Lewis is an upgrade for the Aztecs because at least they'll field a functional offense. David Braun, so far, is the best of what Fitz was at Nwestern minus the scandals. Same for Smith at Michigan State who, as far as we know, doesn't wank on the phone with trauma specialists. I wonder if Boise State won't ultimately regret this; seems like the emotional hire, but maybe that's what they needed.

WOTS is Nevada wants Harsin but they are so broke they can't make it work. They might be rolling back to FCS level just to survive.

This is an issue.  His wife has already blown through his buyout pumping money into leather pants and botox.

He has to get paid.  Soon.
