That was against Notre Dame. That was under JJ's watch.

Also a fight last year with LSU after the Peach Bowl debacle.

The media is unanimous in killing Coker. Even Drew Rosenhaus, who for some reason is a commentator on the Fox affiliate, blistered Ears. Even more surprising, Drew went after the players.

My guess is that he realizes none of the guys he was bashing are good enough to warrant him wanting to represent them.

Probably true. Unless he starts managing boxers... Who'd you saw was the #1 brawler?

Kenny Phillips has very good pugilistic form. Somehow, he has avoided suspension. Rosenhaus only went after the guys who were suspended. That makes sense, considering Phillips is probably the only elite NFL prospect on the roster.

The only thing deflecting heat off of Coker is the fact the Dolphins are the NFL's biggest flop.

I was listening to ESPN this morning and the rumor mill said Saban was being rumored to take the Canes' job!

SI picked the Dolphins to win the Super Bowl.

OUCH.

Two of my least favorite sports name in one post, Drew Rosenhaus and the Canes.

It's the third on-field incident involving the Hurricanes in their last seven games. And there's been plenty of off-the-field ones, too.
-- Several Miami players fought with LSU players following the Tigers' 40-3 win in the Peach Bowl, a brawl that quickly escalated into an out-of-control melee in the tunnel leading from the field.
-- Shortly before the Miami-Louisville game Sept. 16, virtually the entire Hurricanes' roster jumped on the Cardinals logo at midfield -- an act widely viewed as a taunting gesture. Afterward, several Miami players chided teammates for their involvement in that incident.
-- A Miami player was shot outside his home shortly before training camp began in what players contend was a robbery attempt. Meriweather returned fire at the alleged assailants. Police said he acted legally.
-- Wide receiver Ryan Moore, who was sent home from the Peach Bowl for violating team rules, was suspended for the first two games of 2006 for other violations. He is expected to be charged this week with misdemeanors stemming from an August fight with a woman. He hasn't played this season.
And now, perhaps, comes the worst blow of them all, a melee that was out of hand within seconds of starting.

And why does the "U" get a bad rep?

Guess who FIU plays next - Ala-Bammer.

The "brutal" Tide schedule continues...
