Pat Forde at ESPN had these cracks on Texas in his most recent column:



Some observations:
  • Texas' most recent problem is 5 pages back in this thread
  • Texas finished well behind both Illinois and PSU in the Fulmer Cup standings - both of whom had more recent problems
It's not exactly news, but fairness still carries no weight with the media. They play up problems if they can make what they think is a good story out of them.

Texas still strikes a high-profile on the college landscape. As such, they are an easy target for the likes of Forde. Penn State has fallen too far on-the-field to get this treatment off-the-field.

Memo to OSU fans: Be careful what you wish for.

Forde is a graduate of the University of Missouri. Not surprised he'd take shots at Texas while his alma mater has a decent team that can recruit some stars out from under Brown and Company

Two LSU football players face charges

BATON ROUGE (AP) ? LSU linebacker Derrick Odom was arrested for the second time in less than a month and given a misdemeanor summons by LSU Police for damage to property.

Police say Odom, a freshman from Jackson, Miss., and Xavier Carter, a former LSU football player and track star, are facing charges stemming from damage caused to the car of LSU student Maria Bruton at the West Campus Apartments on Sept. 1.

Carter, a professional track athlete, is believed to be out of the country now, but police said they have issued an arrest warrant for him on a felony count of simple criminal damage to property.

Odom is accused of ramming Bruton's 2002 Cavalier with his 6-foot-2, 212-pound body, according to Lawrence Rabalais of LSU Police.

Highly-touted Indiana recruit charged with drug trafficking

A highly-touted prep basketball star who has committed to Indiana has been arrested and charged with trafficking in cocaine in Kentucky. Bud Mackey, 18, a 6-foot-4 guard, was arrested at about 5 p.m. Friday and charged with trafficking in a controlled substance within 1,000 yards of a school and first-degree trafficking in a controlled substance (cocaine), first offense, according to officials at the Scott County jail in Georgetown, Ky. He was being held Friday night on a $10,000 cash bond.

"I'm just hoping and praying ... you hope it's not true," his coach, Billy Hicks, told the Lexington Herald-Leader. "You hope when it all shakes out there's a logical explanation."
Mackey led Scott County High School of Georgetown to the Kentucky state championship last season and was named most valuable player at the Sweet 16.

A Baylor assistant coach couldn't 'Bear' it any longer, and went 'Waco' since he was so pissed. Hopefully he'll get a lawyer that did well on the bar.
