Hey, you get hungry on the weekends, too.
- ESPN will broadcast the top games of 2013 throughout July. It looks like the SEC – and Georgia – will be well represented.
- This probably doesn’t help Jonathan Mincy’s chances with winning the 2014 Lott IMPACT Trophy.
- Indiana University announces that it will establish a “10-point student-athlete bill of rights.”
- Todd McShay, bringing the Dawg porn.
- Here’s a good breakdown of a player Georgia will see in the opener, Vic Beasley.
- “But now Auburn faces a dilemma”? Pundit, please. It’s a dilemma entirely of the school’s own making.
- Florida announces the formation of a Fan Advisory Council. Be still, my heart.
- Paul Myerberg really thinks Tennessee, his #68 team, is going places. Just not this year.
- David Hale notes that three ACC teams lost their leading passer, rusher, receiver and tackler this offseason, which is quite rare (only happened twice in the past six seasons). The good news is that Georgia plays two of those teams.
Malzahn, scoffing at the punishment FSU doled out to Winston for the crab legs incident, has announced that he’s prepared to permanently ban Mincy from the Auburn baseball team, if that’s what it takes to get through to him.

He should be banned from all sports not just one.

I rewatched the LSU game last night. Man, Morgan’s 55-yarder is something else. I love how as the ball is snapped Verne & Gary are entertaining the possibility that Beckham might run it back, then toe hits leather and Morgan immediately refocuses their attention. Pure placekicking badassery.

“Members of the Fan Advisory Council will meet quarterly with administrators and staff in an effort to express their suggestions concerning the overall game-day experience in The Swamp.”
For UF, this isn’t going to end well.

BS. They’re going to announce them loud and proud in Jordan-Hare. It means THAT much in the state.

On the way to the beach last night, I happened to see a particular traffic stop in Abbeville Alabama. Little did I know how interesting that stop would prove to be when I tuned in to the buffet this morning…

Floyd is draft-eligible after this year? Since when did prep school count as a year of college?

I don’t think the rule is three years of college. It’s three years out of high school.

I think you’re right. Geez, that’s depressing. A player comes into their own (which Floyd should do this year), plays a few games, and just like that – they’re gone.
Maybe he won’t go.

The National Football League does not consider a player eligible to be drafted until they are three years removed from high school.
I agree. Floyd should mature and show his stuff this season. And we will need to put pressure on opposing QBs every way we can to keep our DBs from being exposed. He does well and Georgia benefits. But he’s gone too.
Sigh.

I think when Larry Fitzgerald went pro is when that interpretation was made official. I remember it was a discussion for a while whether he could turn pro or not.

Mincy, leading those Eagles. Odds of missing a game? Depends on the opponent, don’t it?
