  1. Always.
  2. 5 years, $29 million Seems a bit high, no?
  3. Wait, bleacher tickets are $72 now?!?! Isn't that like double what they were just a couple of years ago?
  4. Tapes Claim Cam Newton was in room while being shopped to Mississippi State.
  5. Only 4 pages? Wow. These threads are just like the game threads; they're both getting shorter year after year.
  6. Wow, that was surprisingly easy once I got in to purchase tickets. I was able to buy my tickets on the first try.
  7. It's been 20 minutes and I haven't moved up any spots. I might have to just try later.
  8. Hey, you're better off than I am. I'm 4th in line in all my windows. I [expletive] hate this crap. I don't have time for this [expletive].
  9. What the [expletive] is this new front of the line thing?
  10. Oh God. This better go quickly today. I really don't feel like dealing with this VWR crap again.
  11. http://frontline.purchasenow5.tickets.com/buy/MLBEventInfo?tfl=Chicago_Cubs-Tickets-Single_Game_Tickets-upcomingseriespromos-b2&agency=MLB&pid=6897299&roomid=5
  12. No, just speculation that it's a school you wouldn't expect. It'll prob turn out to be nothing.
  13. Anyone hearing all these rumors about a news source publishing a report on a major D1 school commiting massive violations? Supposedly, it could be devastating for the school. There are rumors on many different Rivals and Scout message boards.
  14. I'm only buying one set of tickets tomorrow for when my parents come to town in July. I'm guessing it will be very easy to get tickets.
  15. Rumor has it that Ryan Mallett loves drugs.

  17. Could you imagine being some 18-year-old kid who's getting ready to move into the dorm and then being told you couldn't move in, and that your scholarship wasn't being offered to you anymore? Yeah, that's some [expletive] and something has to be done about it. Sounds like Big Slick has a bigger problem with the upper classmen having their schollies taken away, which I have absolutely no issues with. They are year-to-year grants in aid that are based on athletic ability, and if you're not good enough to maintain one, I don't see why any coach should be forced to keep offering them to you. However, I do think that if a coach signs more freshmen than he can feasibly get into school, he should face some sort of penalty for it. Not exactly sure what would be fair, but I agree that coaches who sign freshmen and then make them greyshirt or something else are reprehensible. I'd love to see the NCAA step in and set firm rules on this and punish offending institutions (by taking away one scholarship per oversigning?) These are student-athletes. You might as well pay the players a salary if you're going to treat them specifically as athletes and take away their scholarships if they aren't the athlete you thought they were. These kids are students first and foremost, and I think they have a right to finish out their degrees if they were given a scholarship. It's too much of a business.
  18. Could you imagine being some 18-year-old kid who's getting ready to move into the dorm and then being told you couldn't move in, and that your scholarship wasn't being offered to you anymore? Yeah, that's some [expletive] and something has to be done about it.
  19. Not really. Auburn is a bunch of dirty, dirty cheaters.
  20. Houston Nutt really enjoys signing players and then disappearing them. Signing 92 players over 3 years with only 55% of the players still on the team today is mind boggling. Hell, signing 92 players in 3 years is crazy enough itself.
  21. Nick Saban's daughter posting on undecided recruit Cyrus Kouandjio's facebook page: http://www.alongtheolentangy.com/2011/2/4/1975479/nick-sabans-daughter-posting-on-undecided-recruit-cyrus-kouandjios It never stops with Saban.
  22. Sounds like Michigan is hiring Curt Mallory as defensive backs coach. Another "Michigan Man". Any of you Illini fans know much about him? Was he decent during his time at Illinois? Seems like a very underwhelming hire.
  23. It was very awkward, but both coaches came off as classy individuals. Big props to Rich Rod agreeing to do the interview.
  24. FSU's class is ridiculous.
  25. Tim Jernigan to FSU.
