Should Have Been Done Years Ago

The BCS meetings ended with some of college football’s biggest power brokers hyping themselves for committing to a long awaited playoff. BCS executive director Bill Hancock called it a “seismic change” for the sport. You can go ahead and stop patting yourselves on the back for something...Full take »

New Arkansas Razorbacks Head Coach

John L. Smith…come on down! You’re the next head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks! Smith goes from Weber St. to Fayetteville…from the Big Sky to the SEC…from battling Montana to knocking heads with Alabama. And I think it’s a great hire. They’re not trying to win the press...Full take »

Air Date:
Are You Going To Kiss Me?

Somebody needs to pull the Freedom of Information Act off Bobby Petrino. It’s running up the score and embarrassing him. Not only did he chip his mistress Jessica Dorrell off 20k, but he’d also hook up her with Hot Tamales. Hot Tamales? Did you woo your wife with Lemonheads? And his physical...Full take »

Air Date:
Petrino's Ex-Mistress Resigns

Bobby Petrino’s former mistress Jessica Dorrell has resigned from her position with the Arkansas football program. My question is, exactly what does she tell a future employer when they ask why she left her last job? A funny story, actually. I went out with, and was subsequently hired by this...Full take »

Air Date:
Dad Smashes Alabama's BCS Trophy

In the era of cell phone cams, there’s nothing that ever happens, that doesn’t end up getting captured on video. That’s why I have to think someone, somewhere has video of Alabama’s 2012 BCS Trophy getting shattered when a player’s father tripped on a rug and knocked the crystal off...Full take »

Air Date:
Ol Ball Coach Lights Up SEC Suckas

If you think the ol ball coach is feeling good about himself after an 11 win season for South Carolina, you’d be wrong. Steve Spurrier feels amazing about himself. How else would you explain him lighting up all those SEC suckas he has to knock heads with every year. Asked about moving the...Full take »

Air Date:
The Bear Bryant Of Texting

Bobby Petrino has always put huge numbers up: 44 points on South Carolina. He hung 49 on Tennessee. And 4,300 text messages with his mistress over a 7 month period. 70 a day! 80 some days. Do I hear 90?? You know it. If someone is firing off 90 texts a day, they’re usually about cute boys and...Full take »

Air Date:
Sex Wins Again

I had no reason to believe Arkansas AD Jeff Long would do the right thing and break off Bobby Petrino. Leaders in his position rarely do. Instead, they typically give in to the out of control coach, maniacal fan base and compromise their integrity to keep revenue streams flowing. But Long...Full take »

Air Date:
Urb Meyer May Be Similar To The Vest

One of the biggest reasons Ohio St. hired Urban Meyer was to make people forget greasy Jim Tressel. The vest was never what he appeared, but in Meyer they were getting an ethical, moral coach who does it the right way. Someone who left Florida because he “didn’t like the state of college...Full take »

Air Date:
Waiting For My Apology Baylor

There you go again Baylor. Just last week, I was giving you credit for being the center of the sporting universe. And owning up to the fact that I cracked on you, telling you to stay in your own lane while your conference realigned. And yes, I did say you had a Big 12 lifestyle with a Conference...Full take »

Air Date:
Bobby Petrino Is At It Again

Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino is at it again. If he’s not quitting on his team in the middle of the night (via letter), he’s running around on his wife with a subordinate half his age, laying his Harley down in the street and lying about it. Full take »

Air Date:
The Center Of The Sports World

And I can’t believe I’m about to say this but…the center of the sports world is Central Texas. Yeah I said it. And I said it because Baylor U is killing it. Look, there was a time when you thought of Baylor, you thought Big 12 tomato can. A warm up game for Texas or OU. I remember that...Full take »

Air Date:
Get A Helmet Coach

Arkansas head coach Bobby Petrino showed up for his first press conference after laying down his Harley Davidson looking like a Freddy Krueger Hannibal Lecter hybrid. Dude suffered a cracked vertebra, and four fractured ribs. He’s lucky to still be breathing. Hey Bob, just because you coach...Full take »

Air Date:
Joe Paterno Dies At 85

Joe Paterno passed away Sunday from lung cancer, just two months after being fired by Penn St. And no sooner did the news break, so did the near impossible task of making sense of his legacy. Should he be remembered as the sport’s all time winningest coach, a great man and philanthropist? Or...Full take »

Air Date:
OBC Hiring Requirements

This just in. The OBC still rules. Nothing has stood the test of time like Steve Spurrier. This cat is still the absolute best. As an example, like any other top coach, he knows he’s only as good as the assistants he hires. And only the best of the best get to work for the OBC. And he has a...Full take »

Air Date:
Dre Gets Arrested

Alabama DB Dre Kirkpatrick announced last week that he'll be entering the NFL Draft. He has great size, crazy ball skills, and coming off that shut-out of LSU in the BCS Title game... His draft stock couldn't be higher. And neither could he. Allegedly. Full take »
