in the Top 25, yet ESPN decided to go out to the one in California which did not finish in the Top 25 and televise their day live. (2/4)

It’s interesting that (ESPN) doesn’t come around here on signing day, they don’t come around here on pro timing day, and yet (3/4)

they want us to play all these Thursday night games. Maybe we need to consider playing on that new network, FoxSports 1" (4/4)

Not to worry, they'll get all the attention they want at their pro day next year.

I'm so glad Spurrier ended up at Carolina so I could finally come to appreciate his sense of humor.

He's humbled somewhat since his days at Florida but his wit and observations are as sharp as ever.

He is the man. Tells it like it is. ESPN is long known for playing favorites.

CBS, Pitbull, and, by extension, Dr. Pepper are ruining college football. This post is being done in CBS style. It will have 96 commercial breaks of 4 minutes a piece. This post will last well over 4 hours. This . . . is CBS.

How is ESPN ruining college football? It's better and more visible than ever. ESPN has been awesome for college football.

Agreed. You have to prioritize, though. Pitbull must be fricking stopped.

Real talk though, what is the logic behind covering a non-Top 25 team's pro day vs a top 10 team's pro day?







Ratings.

ESPN doesn't care about what is "fair". They want the highest ratings to bring in the most money. Can't hate them for that.

LSU's is on ESPN 3

The fact that one of the schools has three prospects that are projected to get picked in the first three rounds of the draft (Barkley, Woods, McDonald) and the other only has one or two (Swearinger, possibly Devin Taylor).
