National Signing Day!

Lemme tell ya sumpin!
       The hobby of following college Football recruiting has worn off. Now it's a well known gig. Most fans know their recruiting numbers and how it correlates or doesn't correlate to their teams
He was BFF with his recruits right up until he left them.
future.That's the funny thing, some teams, most teams, can point to their success or lack of it due directly to recruiting. A few teams rise above it, and rise above it consistently.
Now whats going on at Washington? First the Defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox left Tennessee to go there and stand in the rain, and now one of the top recruiters in the nation for this year assistant Tosh Lupoi left Cal also to go stand in the rain. I can understand Wilcox getting out of town, the SEC is tough. You do know they had 2 teams in the National Championship don't you? Not everybody is cut out for the nonstop fanaticism of the big leagues. Wilcox wasn't.

Lemme tell ya sumpin!
Quarterback Drew Brees Was Doing This a Lot!
                            627 Yards of Offense     

           Drew Brees was on fire 466 yards and three touchdowns. The New Orleans Saints took it to'em. Boy they played like they was in the SEC or something. Brees was 33 of 43 in passing, while setting a record for the most passing yards in a regulation play off game.  In addition he had 3 passes of over 40 yards.

New Penn State Coach!

Lemme tell ya sumpin!
          What makes an otherwise normal man jump in a frying pan. I wouldn't go to Penn State and I wouldn't let my children go. The name is Bill O'Brien, the resume is totally pedestrian.  The bright spot is he had one of the best jobs in all of football. Offensive coordinater at New England. He could learn from the master. It wasn't an SEC job but it was the NFL and that's close. Still had a decent  quarterback for a couple more years. "I'm going to surround myself with good people" said the new coach at his introduction media event. Ha, ha, sorry while I laugh, but that's what Joe (The Enabler) Paterno thought, didn't he. Ha, ha, I did it again.
          The NCAA is investigating and that's almost never good. Of course it could be like OSU and recieve basically nothing for running a horrible, incorrigible, lying, cheating, thieving program. One of the most corrupt in all of college football. if that slow footed version they play there can be called football.
          Before he was known as the guy who argued with Brady on the sideline. Now he's the guy that coaches at the pedophile school. I wouldn't want to carry that burden. People aren't even gonna want to shake hands with anyone from that side of town. Good lord, it's like having to touch somebody from Califronia, or shake hands with Obama. You can imagine it will be tough in recruiting.  Probably not a lot of child molesters that actually play football. Hell even if he has a good season he'll stomped on by the SEC. Yep, made a big move downward. He's starting out in a deep, deep, hole. I never do understand why a otherwise normal man will just jump in the frying pan like that.

The Coaches Not Coaching!

Lemme tell ya sumpin!
Fisher interviewing with the Dolphins!
          Theres some, so called coaches, not coaching, who are with teams this year as evidenced by the Indianapolis Colts record. But those are not the coaches we're talking about. We're talking about the ones who are not getting paid by a team. Theres two that come to mind, Jeff Fisher who is an excellent coach and still has the fire. Then theres Bill Cower who was an excellent coach, and may still have the fire. That's pretty much the pick of the litter, because Jimmy Johnson of the Dallas Cowboys fame ain't coming back, it seems. Even tho Dallas needs a coach in the worst way. The pick of the litter job is the Colts. But Fisher is interviewing in Miami. Cower isn't interviewing anywhere. It's so bad San Diego retained the services of Norv Turner. You just know the fans are happy about that. With the NFL being reluctant to spend any money on coaching hires this season, you wonder how many empty seats there will be if this recession drags on. What about if the American people renew Obama's contract, four more losing years.  

and the rams called on Dick Vermeil and Marshall Faulk to help them pick a coach... say whaa
