Here are some spring stories for you to nibble on.
- The Nuttster waxes awesome over Randall Mackey as only he can.
- Zach Mettenberger, seen by some as this year’s Cam Newton, is currently running third on the LSU depth chart. That would be behind Jarrett Lee, master of the pick-six, in case you’re counting.
- Another athletic director who can’t keep it in his pants runs afoul of the law.
- More on linebacker fundamentals from Shakin the Southland.
- “Is the NCAA a coercive cartel?” I’m not sure I like any of the answers to that.
- Dude wants ten million dollars for getting banged in the head with a cowbell at the 2009 Mississippi State-Mississippi game.
- John Junker’s epitaph: “The danger of building a business around hospitality,” notes Duane Woods, “is that the very genius that got you there might also bring you down.”
Zach will win the Natl Champ and the Heisman before the year’s over. Man, did he crush Murray on G-Day or what?

I’ll guarantee you Mettenberger finishes his career with more wins per season than Murray.

Do wins sitting on the bench count?

Can I sue the Bama-Bangs wearing frat boy who followed be out of Davis Wade Stadium ringing a cowbell three inches from my face? He didn’t hit me or anything, but I’m pretty sure restraining myself started a brain tumor that ought to be getting fairly serious by this time next year.

“To me, that’s the thing of the spring,” Nutt said. “The biggest single most awesome thing is him in that huddle, saying very clearly the play and then barking out the snap count. Been very, very proud. I never would have dreamed (that) this time last year.”
Shorter Nutt: Barking Randall has not yet penetrated the Circle of Untrustables.

Per the LB fundamentals story, I just can’t picture a Dick Butkus doing the ‘jingle-jangle drill’. Maybe I’m getting too old, but to me having ‘fundamentals’ means kicking opposing players’ a$$es, not being an on-field gymnast.

+1 Whatever happened to the LB that made the RB crap his pants from fear of death. I remember seeing a O back field view of the Bears D and looking at Butkus across the line and thinking damn that guy looks like a serial killer.

Just take a look at Lambert’s picture. As a matter of fact, in the Lexicon for LB, just put that picture. I would hate to be the pretty boy QB looking over the line at his gap-toothed, scowling, ass!

Isn’t Jordan Jefferson always having a good spring/good practices/good scrimmages, etc? I hope he wins the job, he’ll revert back to his normal self during games.
