    Fact checking college football facts

    #28...The Blue Tick Coonhound is definitely ~not~ a Bloodhound. The Bloodhound is an older breed recognized by the AKC in 1885, while the Blue Tick Coonhound is an offshoot of the English Coonhound and was not recognized as a separate breed until 2009. (AKC.org) Blue ticks have been around for a...

    So is Dobbs officially now known as "Rocketman"?

    Her-hee…I see what you did there…

    I'm hearing Worley is possibly out...

    This. I remember looking up at the tv in the fine establishment I was working at the night of the USCe game and seeing Worley on the sidelines. He was looking around almost dazed at what was going on around him. 100,000 people screaming at him after a bad series. I really felt sorry for him...

    Vols and a 1-3-1

    1-3-1 was a staple in Coach Mears' day... Used to give the other teams fits. I think you need at least one zone in your bag of tricks. If you execute, you can't have too many weapons.

    Discussion with a UF lineman

    This stuff has gone on forever. When I was in high school a buddy and I used to buy weed at Gibbs Hall. This was a VERY long time ago. People weren't quite so uptight about it as they are now, for better or worse. Oh, by the way, don't you remember? We pot-smoking liberals LOVE to pay taxes...

    Ah sooooooo, the plot thickens.

    Shouldn't we move this to the conspiracy theory thread?

    A new low in American politics

    The problem with Romney's statement is that as usual it totally contradicts statements he made in 2007-08. Who would have thought? Contrary to popular opinion around here, the President stated during his campaign what he would do foreign policy wise and militarily, including if he had the...

    Fastest Vol?

    My first reaction was Shaun Ellis (lol) Next was Willie Gault My sentimental fav is Richmond Flowers... He was an Olympic class hurdler who put up times that are still good, even today. An interesting article on him: Flowers: 'Fastest white boy alive' - classic - ESPN I was a kid...

    Some interesting take by recruits on our football program in "shambles"

    We can't have this... Dooley MUST stop recruiting these high-character athletes... Just one more reason he HAS to go, IMHO...

    Who said this?

    Bangladesh is most definitely Muslim. Hitler was definitely NOT a left wing socialist. Hitler was a madman who would say or do ANYTHING to gain and maintain power. A nihilist driven by his insane visions of Germany's place in the world and his place in Germany. His "philosophy" such as it...

    I think Worley has settled in

    I felt sorry for him... Still young enough to date my little girl, standing on the sideline looking pretty dazed surrounded by 100,000 fans and cameras... I'm amazed he didn't faint in the huddle... As third string redshirt freshman he never got much in the way of reps with the team. I think...

    Serious question here

    Ya know, we've been over this and over this... The talent and experience issues are REAL. We went three years in a row with what have turned out to be complete disasters of recruiting classes. WE SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE SEC ELITE LEVEL TALENT! PERIOD! The players we DO have simply DO NOT have...

    Someone tell me about the good times.

    All of this, plus... Going out to LA and whipping UCLA in the last seconds... I thought my mom was gonna faint! The Orange Bowl against Oklahoma, #1 vs. #2. Missed the NC by about six inches on a Karl Kremser FG miss from like 50 yds. NOBODY kicked 50 yarders back then! Disappointing, but...
