I had the pleasure of guarding Gerald Jones, Jonathan Crompton and Ryan Karl (not all on the same team) while playing pick-up basketball at the T-Recs

Apparently ESPN doesn't think the Diamond Vols will go very far ... Baseball America projects the 64-team NCAA tournament field for 2009 - ESPN What's the over/under on Kentrail's batting average and home run total this year?

I played a game last night at the Rec Center and Gerald Jones was on the other team. He was nasty.

The Beacon is independent and is not associated with the Journalism and Electronic Media department. Basically, it's crap.

Sounds like you need to do the same except replace Gainesville with anywhere you could get a life.

Briggs talking him up like that certainly surprised me. I think there is better talent out there for the Vols LB coaching vacancy. Sounds pretty solid on fundamentals though. He's also a fairly young guy, and judging by what Briggs said, he had the respect of a veteran LB group in Chicago...

Yeah that is the link. My bad, thought I included it.

Tennessee's position on the list may surprise you (at least it surprised me)... Best quote of the entire article ... "Travis Henry is still only halfway through opening his 2008 Father's Day cards; he's also facing a federal charge of "knowingly and intentionally conspiring to distribute...

...Lance Briggs (the biggest ego problem in the NFL) likes Lee as a LB coach.... [this from The Chicago Tribune] "Linebacker Lance Briggs figured Lee's status was in doubt. He had planned to take Lee to the Pro Bowl next month in Hawaii, but Lee unexpectedly canceled the trip Monday night...

Trust me, as a life long (20 years) Bear fan, I have grown accustomed to over analyzing the used-to-be dominant defense of the Bears. Smith fired Rivera because he wanted to hire Bob Babich who was a friend. Babich (and some aging) ran the defense into the ground. Additionally, Lloyd...

Don't hire Lloyd unless he brings Lance Briggs, Brian Urlacher, Hunter Hillenmeyer and Nick Roach with him. But I'm pretty sure they don't have any eligibility left. Lee only strived in the shadow of Ron Rivera (up until the Bears loss in Super Bowl XLI). Then HC Lovie Smith fired Rivera so...

I agree that it's good to see Kiffin making a morning class check, but come on, it's the second day of class (which is actually the first day of class for Tuesday-Thursday classes). If your not there the first day your dropped from the class roster. Even Ramar Smith showed up for our first...

How about this one: Defensive backs staring at each other in disbelief as the opposing teams celebrate a wide open touchdown pass. Didn't start happening until the Teddy Gaines era (maybe closer to '99 when Slade was hired). Hasn't stopped since. Have a nice retirement 'coach' Slade.
