Hookers and Blow in honor of Iowa's "DJK"? I hoping Ferentz's name is on the laptop.

Iowa's football team routinely makes a good showing in the Fulmer Cup[/url] due to solid individual efforts like DJK's, yet the Hawkeyes -- and Ferentz -- escape criticism for repeated (I'll stop just short of systemic) criminal behavior in the national media. Sometimes it pays to be out in flyover country. (For those wondering who the hell DJK is, or what he did, here's a link[/url]. It's not good for your football program when the phrase "all-time leading receiver" can be easily paired with the phrase "charged with keeping a drug house.")

You had me confused for a minute. At first, when I clicked on the link, I said, "What's so strange about that? It doesn't look much different than their normal unis." Then I scrolled down to the socks and shoes..... Then I said, "Oh." And then I threw up a little. Still, in the end, "Go Ducks! Beat Auburn!" I may, however, watch the game on an old black & white TV.

Big 10 Legends and Leaders divisions? Could they have been any worse if they tried? How about the Big 10 Snow and Big 10 Ice divisions? Cows and Corn? Burgers and Bratwurst? Tailgate and Barbecue? Stig, all of those make more sense than the one they chose. That was just silly. Legends and Leaders? Really? When I first heard that, I had to check my calender and see if it was April 1st.

The Oregon love is interesting considering they are a program that makes Auburn look clean. Lamichael James is a worst character then Reggie Bush ever was--and that doesn't include the payment plan he's on and when the crap hits the fan and they get exposed for being a scum program--what will Go....I mean Jesu.......I mean Tony Dungy have to say about allowing his son to attend that dirty/polluted program?

RDF, I honestly haven't followed Oregon much. Does Kelly have a reputation for skirting the rules?

LMAO at the socks. The worst uniforms Oregon ever came up with were the white basketball uniforms with the players' names also in white. White on white? Whose brainstorm was that? Needless to say, they were totally unreadable.
While I'm willing to take at face value what RDF says about the Oregon program (since I don't know any of this directly), I'm still pulling for them. I'll support a dirty Pac 10 program (not named USC) over a dirty SEC program any day.

Kelly doesn't have a say in this--the Big Boss is Phil Knight and that mofo isn't playing around--guys are getting PAID--but who is going to rat him out--he's giving money to almost every school in the country--and outfitting their programs--not just FB teams. ;D Notice how Washington program called out Oregon? Guys who can't even get into a Juco program (Cliff Harris) get into Oregon.

Wow ... Leach will certainly come in and clean up the program. NOT!
His name occassionally popped up during the Gator vacancy but almost no one took it seriously. He's certainly got a good offensive mind for the game and he puts a very entertaining product on the field, but the term that I kept hearing about him, in light of his issues at Texas Tech and his ongoing lawsuit with ESPN is "radioactive." I would think that would apply to most other schools as well, not just Florida. And the only thing that will really "solve" that problem is time.

I want Leach to turn down UMCP. It would be the perfect situation. Maryland was AWFUL before Friedgen got there. The Terps got blown out by Penn State in the 90s on a consistent basis. They were so bad, the Wikipedia page for Terps football titles 1987-2000 "Dark Years". Friedgen won 60% of his games for a school that's never been a football powerhouse, and was fired after the team finished 8-4 this year. After that finish, Friedgen deserved another year. If not, he should have been fired last year. Oh, and the kicker - he went to Maryland. They fired one of their own.

It's the rule of fanbases -- and state schools in particular. There are 100 of them that all think that it is their right and manifest destiny to be a national title contender year in and year out.
None of them can answer why.

Are you suggesting we hire Ralph Friedgen? No, but with $2 million in the bank, living in the area, and no hurry to take a new job at 63, who knows, maybe he's available for a special consultant's role in terms of how to position this program if the Patriot League breaks up.
