The Rest of College Football

The mother of No. 1 rated RB Alex Collins apparently stole his LOI to Arkansas (if I have things correct) and fled with it! Apparently she wants him at Miami or something like that.

interesting tibids from today.. so far...



One commit announces he'll attend "The University of LSU."

Another announces he'll attend "The University of Ole Miss."

Dixon commits to Nebraska for a record third time.

She doesn't want to have to give back that brand new double wide.

SAT analogy time:

Ole Miss : recruiting : : 37-year-old baseball player having career year : steroids

I thought Green was #1 rated rb?

Maybe we need to start a contest to predict how long its going to take before Ole Miss gets hit with NCAA sanctions?

I mean, if they're trying to go dollar-for-dollar against Nick Saban, they're going to fail miserably. And they'll do it in a much more sloppy manner than he does.

I was reading today that the word on AL is that everybody gets paid. Stars get more, but every singler player gets a five-figure stipend, with extra for those who have kids. That's how Saban keeps everyone quiet.

I also learned that churches play an important role in laundering the money between boosters and players. Boosters donate to a church (Tax deductible?) and the church in turn passes it on to the family in cash...minus a small cut of course. I guess this is how its run behind the IRS? Always wondered how they managed it.

SEC is really good at cheating, decades of practice. Remember as a member of the NCAA, the universities police themselves and are suppose to self report violations they commit. Each university hires its own compliance teams, at some places paid to keep shut more than actually do anything.

M's problem isn't so much the lack of sorority parties as the general lack of modestly attractive women. Unless the recruit is interested in in artsy, unshaven women's studies major, there's not much chance of getting laid unless they drive up the road to Ypsi. They can, however, easily find a Halo 3 battle.

Now, Ole Miss women...that's another story.

Time to put that one to bed IMO. This is no longer The People's Republic of Ann Arbor. Much of its eccentric side is gone. There are not even a lot credible hipsters. And as a whole the girls are slightly better presented.

Agree with the comments thread: not beautiful.

The girl in the middle looks like Amy Pohler.

Talent was just commenting on the girls he thought he could pull in and failed with.

I just wonder why no kid from the south has ever talked about the SEC payments

I hope that this is not true. I'm serious.

Churches in the bible belt aren't corrupt. (Good) Book it.

How about Cecil Newton's Holy Zion Center of Deliverance?

I didn't see this news until recently, but Tony Gibson has returned to WVU. Poor RichRod might actually get a competent DBs coach. He'll have to find a new drinking buddy though. Gibson took a couple of recruits with him too.
