I like it too. I just hope that the Universities offer some flexibility in the admissions process. A young man with a 2.7 and an athletic scholarship waiting in the wings should be given more leeway on his ACT/SAT scores for admission.

Better your GPA, less important your standardized test score need be.

The way the current process works with the NCAA is based on a sliding scale based on GPA, aka what you talked about in the last part of your post.

That link is worth reading from top to bottom.

Vanderbilt - People don't really hate Vanderbilt outside of the South. They're not good enough at any sport to hate. That said, we all assume that everyone in the South who can spell both their first AND last name goes to Vanderbilt. Consequently, it's no surprise that Vanderbilt's enrollment is only 5,000. The rest of you mouth breathers are busy masturbating to pictures of your national championship banner from 1954. That or fat eight year olds you think could materialize into first round defensive tackles.

South Carolina - When the best thing about your program is being able to scream out "Cocks" without punishment -- this was probably 90% of Steve Spurrier's recruiting strategy of Stephen Garcia -- and you're not a gay bar in Manhattan, you're an awful place. But the biggest insult to South Carolina came when the courts ruled that you idiots couldn't even brand yourself as USC because the real USC, the one out West, owned the rights to the name.
You losers can't even own the rights to your own name.

What say you, Gator?

For Ohio State fans champing at the bit for a shot at former Florida football coach Urban Meyer next season, Orlando Sentinel columnist Mike Bianchi injected a sobering thought. From Southeastern Conference football media days in Birmingham, Ala., Bianchi wrote that Meyer left new Gators coach Will Muschamp a much worse team than Ron Zook left Meyer when he left.
"Zook left Meyer the nucleus of a national championship team; Meyer left Muschamp the nucleus of a Beef O'Brady's Bowl team. It's amazing how little buzz there is for this UF team deep in the country-fried capital of the SEC.
"The Gators, who so often headlined this media extravaganza when Meyer and Steve Spurrier coached in Gainesville, were just the warm-up act on Wednesday before the big boys - Steve Spurrier, Nick Saban, Les Miles and Gene Chizik - were to take the stage later in the proceedings."
Bianchi added that "the Gators were 7-5 in Meyer's final season a year ago and will have to struggle through a scheduling gauntlet - Alabama, LSU, Auburn, Georgia back-to-back-to-back-to-back - to match that mark of mediocrity this season."

That is a pretty terrible article.

Hoke inherited a beef o Brady bowl nucleus, not Will. Both Urban and Will inherited droves of talent.

I love his 7-5 reference, as though Zook didn't get fired for going 7-4, which followed two five loss seasons.

If Will can sign his own Tebow, Spikes, Harvin building blocks, he can succeed too. If he lets FSU take over the state, he will fail.

That would be great to see though! Only for the fact that I used to love watching that game when it was actually for something besides bragging rights. That hatred runs pretty deep...not like tOSU and that [censored]-tard school up north.

While we don't have the personnel yet for the Weis pro-set he is installing (brutal blocking fb and a good 25 carries a game 225 lb tailback; see our roster of mini-me scat backs) - and while our O-line leaves much to be desired due to a rash of injuries (that may be resolved by the fall if we get really lucky), we are hardly bereft of talent. Our D-line and backers should be really good, and if we can get a pass rush to help out our young secondary we could stay in some games we maybe get lucky while our new offense figures it out - and comes around next year.

So that is just Bianchi trying to get hits. And, in my opinion, anyone who actually gets you two crystal trophies during his tenure can leave a pile of dog [Mark May] if he wants. I'd still tip my cap to Urb as he left and say "Thank you, Good Sir!" I'm old enough to know that those chances, let alone actual championships, are few and far between.

Trying to stir up bad blood about Corch?? Really? Fail, Mike, fail.

Average Scout star-rankings for the past 4 years: 3.47, 3.89, 3.81, 3.68

That 3.81 gets even more prolific when you look at how many powerhouse schools they beat out and how many different times. Most classes have a small number of national superstar recruits offered by everyone . That class was chock full of those types.

Urban didn't go 7-5 because they lacked talent. He went 7-5 because Auburn transferred 5 of their losses to them via Cam. With Newton still on the roster, they are a 10+ win ballclub.

I don't think Cam would have still been around if he had not transferred. We will never know, but if the rumors are true, he strategically got out before the hammer. But I can't thank his dad enough for that, "This time we don't sign for nothing" quote to Miss St. :cheers:
