Around the Interwebs

Fuck You Blacksburg. News out of the motherland could not have been worse over the last couple of days.  On Tuesday 4 star QB Kevin Newsome chose to watch JoePa die slow play for Penn State over Virginia Tech. After Pat Devlin transfered Newsome would only have to wait one year to start at PSU and that was the major selling point. In Tyrod we trust, but a backup plan would be nice.  I never thought I would cite her but Heather Dinich reports Jim Weaver has put the kibosh on a head coach in waiting plan for Bud Foster.

“I’ve talked to our president, and I’ve talked to coach [Frank] Beamer and we see the coach-in-waiting concept as something that’s viable for a year, maybe a maximum of two years if you know there’s going to be transition, but coach Beamer could be here another eight, 10, 12 years and we just don’t think that’s the kind of arrangement we want to have with that kind of tenure still possible,” Weaver said.

I don’t think I can handle Beamer’s “put friends in high places” approach to staffing decisions into my late 30s.

Watching this video made me feel a little better.

Now that Michigan Defensive Coordinator Scott Shafer has been Tony Franklinned who are his potential replacements?

Auburn booster places $5,100,000 call. Read this for yourself and formulate your own opinion as to how valid it may be.  Winfield has heard the same rumor. He lives in the south so maybe there is some truth to it…

Sam Bradford’s girlfriend is hot. That is all.

    Weaver is so full of shit. I will be absolutely floored if Beamer coaches more than another 3 or 4 years.

    I really wish our bball team wasn’t sucking shit this year. It might take some of the focus off of this disaster of an offseason.
