Friday morning buffet

Congrats, you made it!  Now have some football.

  • Quayvon Hicks thinks Zander Ogletree is a “great man”… just not a big man.  (Seeing as Hicks just won a state title in the discus throw, I’m not gonna argue with him.)
  • North Carolina’s ACC peers aren’t very happy with its Butch Davis-era NCAA violations.
  • Michael Elkon confirms that I made a good decision not to listen to the absurd Buzz Bissinger debate (using the term loosely) about banning college football.
  • But I sure as hell would have tuned in for this:  Leach said, “I would have massacred those people. I would have loved to been part of that debate.”
  • Mark Richt has some thoughtful observations about concussion safety and where football might be headed as a result.
  • Boise State may be having second thoughts about joining the Big East, in part because the TV money may not be there.
  • Years after the demise of the Blue-Gray Game, it looks like Montgomery will be hosting a new “College Football All Star Game”.
  • Derek Dooley, Roy Adams and Adolf Hitler.  Who says Tennessee football isn’t fun?

    Re: Hicks … James Deloach, who will likely be an OLB next season, bested Hicks by a foot to take the Class A discus title … Hicks also finished second in the Class AA shot put … That’s some strong young men … 🙂

    Boise State should reconsider its decision to leave the Mountain West for the Big East.The real reason for making the switch was the AQ status of the Big East. Now that the AQ status has disappeared there is no reason to switch. I also would counsel Boise State to NOT pay the Big East’s exit fee of $5 Million. When Boise State agreed to move the Big East was a very different conference than it is now. That, and the disappearance of the AQ status, would be sufficient to justify not joining under a change of condition argument. Please Boise, hire me to represent you. I’ll do it on a percentage of what I save you.

    Hicks seems like a great candidate to cross over to the ‘Dark Side’ to play some OLB, ILB, or SS. Last time this happened to a FB at UGA it turned out pretty well.

    What in the world is SOD doing?! I’m beginning to think that those satirical secret agent posts that pop up from time to time about SOD and Muschump might actually be true.
