Geez, raw. You have athletic genes in your family.

 

Mostly skipped a generation unfortunately for me. But I have a brother that played on Cincinnati Bearcats final four team with Van Exel and Corie Blount. His son is a freshman on a basketball scholarship at Urbana U, but will be a D1 transfer. Have 3 other college aged nephews playing football. One D1 for ULM. One for FCS SIU, but he will be drafted next year. Another playing D3, but he was on scholarship at Oklahoma until he blew that with grades. Had 2 uncles and a much older cousin be all state basketball players in Indiana, one of which went pro in Greece. I also have a niece that's a contender for all state in HS basketball. And a 6' tall 13-year old nephew who's dad is in the NFL. And my soon to be 5-year old son is ridiculously good at basketball for his age (can maintain a dribble and make baskets on a full size rim with a girl's ball or from about 10-12 feet with a kids size ball).

 

Sorry for the not so humble bragging. If it makes people feel any better, I sucked in high school at baseball and was just a mediocre football player. I did make IU's team as a walk-on but quit while like 6th on the depth chart at OLB. Lol

 

Whereas I have the least atetic family ever (though extraordinarily accomplished academically)

Ugh. I think Laquon Treadwell tore his ACL and got concussed on the same play.

 

EDIT: That was his ankle and it wasn't pretty. And now they're saying he fumbled it to boot.

That looked more like a Robin Ventura style ankle destruction.

ND is barely beating Navy?

How many years must this happen before I stop seeing these posts?

 

ND should have been up 35-14 at half, made a stupid turnover, and now they're losing. [expletive] infuriating.

OMG. I feel so terrible for Treadwell. Amazing young player. Reminds me of a faster Alshon Jeffery.

 

Dez Bryant.

Wow was i wrong about Texas am. They are in a dogfight at home vs ULM. Sumlin I turns out is a bad coach that Johnny football and that reciever propped up for a short while.

 

Another of my nephews plays for ULM. 8 catches for 88 yards today and an 8 yard pass.

 

Who is that? I got my masters from there and live in Monroe. I have only made it out to one game so far this year.

South Carolina blew another game in spectacular fashion. That's three of the worst blown games Ive ever seen.

 

Dobbs and Hurd played great overall, but yeah, SC's defense just disappeared from about 2 minutes left in the game and on.

What a huge win for Tennessee. First win in Columbia since 2006, first SEC win of the year and, most importantly, the 4th win of the year. Now we need to just beat 2 of Missouri/UK/Vandy and that's doable since Vandy is a near guaranteed win.

 

Dobbs and Hurd were absolutely terrific tonight, though the offensive line had some struggles and the defense was largely nonexistent most of the night. All 3 of this group of games (SC/UK/Mizz) were basically coinflips I figure, so it's nice to get one win in quickly.

So Spurrier's postgame conference... He must be close to retiring.
