Posted Wednesday July 29, 2009, About: Paterno: NCAA 'ridiculous' to strip Bowden wins
"I can guarentee you that Joe Pa has had players that cheated, stole, and even smacked around a woman. He just wasn't caught"

OK my fellow Texan. As someone who has followed college football since 1965, I'll take you up on your "guarantee". What information do you have to support this "guarantee". If you are going to make these bold statements, please be prepared to defend them. Hook 'em.
Posted Wednesday July 15, 2009, About: Bowden not ready to give back wins
"Not true. Check out Penn State football program and their arrest record over the past 5-8 years. Bowden is a legend who most people think stayed a little after they should have. Nobody can take that away. Athletes cheating on an online music class won't take that way from him"

Typical dumbass Seminole response. It is not about Paterno, genius. It is about Bowden. What does student arrests for DUI or campus fights have in common with academic fraud and pay for play???? Nothing!! It is all about institutional control, or lack thereof. Also, read the charges from the NCAA. It is not just online cheating. It is tutors, paid by the U., doing papers for athletes. Dumb!

Someone should inform Bowden that even if the NCAA allows him to "keep" these wins, and say he finishes one win ahead of Paterno when all is said and done, most people will look upon his record as tained anyway. His reputation will always be tarnished by his lack of discipline (free shoes & free/discounted clothes (which are just pay-for-play schemes), academic scandals, etc.)
Posted Tuesday May 12, 2009, About: Alvarez in Wisconsin power struggle
"So let me get this straight, Wisconsin is so so so good, that they are able to accomplish what Stanford, Notre Dame, Rutgers, Northwestern, cannot? Wisconsin has been able to stay relevent while not comproising standards for athletes? Someone has sold you a load of crap and you're spreading it here. No thanks. I'm not buying it."

Me neither. You cannot convince me that Wisconsin has higher admission standards for jocks than Northwestern or Penn State in the Big Ten, or any of a mirade of schools outside the Big Ten.
Posted Monday March 30, 2009, About: Calhoun hints at recruiting errors
Calhoun is a bufoon and a disgrace to the academic community. His graduation rate is around 22%. I hope the NCAA nails this guy and sends a message to the UConns of the world.

Take it easy there Huggie boy....have a drink or two....or twelve.
Posted Wednesday March 18, 2009, About: FSU president to fight NCAA
FSU should know when to quit on this. Even if they can somehow argue to the NCAA or the Courts to keep BB's wins, it will always be a tarnish to his reputation. BB should step forward and say 'screw the wins...let's move on to the future".
Posted Wednesday March 11, 2009, About: FSU's trouble hurting recruiting
Does anyone believe that FSU can go four unders (under probation) without committing another offense? FSU epitomizes all that is wrong with college athletics. This is a win at any cost program.
Posted Thursday November 13, 2008, About: Badgers, Gophers coaches feuding?
Does any coach in the Big Ten like this guy? JoePa thinks he is a complete ahole.
