Best part is how OSU fans act like Meyer is the model.of integrity and that he has never done wrong. Only recruited thugs at UF because thats the best he could get, doesnt do that here....

Tell a little known embarrassing story about your athletic department I go to the game in Oxford every other year just to laugh and point at that stupid banner...


And I go to Redstick every other year to eat your food, drink your booze and give a facial to some young lady with severe daddy issues.... I think the tRant would say I am getting more ROI.

We hired Dennis Franchione, gave him a guaranteed contract after he presided over the first loss to Baylor in 20 years, and then replaced him with Mike Sherman; giving him a guaranteed contract.

We gave a guaranteed contract to a basketball coach who has 3 NCAA tournament appearances in 22 seasons as a head coach and 1 appearance in 6 years at our school.

We gave a ridiculous guaranteed contract extension to Kevin Sumlin before we could see what he could do without Johnny Manziel.

Oh, you meant little known.

Our Athletic Department made the brilliant decision in 1996 to put the Corps of Cadets in one big block on Kyle Field after multiple Commandants shut the idea down.

Urban was sleeping with a grad assistant and his wife was sleeping with one of the coaches. The true reasons why he left at the suggestion of the higher ups at UF. It was going to come out and the best way for the school and Urban to "hide" it was just for him to leave.


Why do you Gator's frown on open marriages?

Back in the mid 90's the ole ball coach used to have to tour the larger Gator booster dinners to speak. He hated doing this and would occasionally blow them off. Well he tried this with the Highland's county boosters one Thursday evening and after an hour's delay Jeremy Foley gets a call from none other than Ben Hill Griffin IV who's waiting at the event. Well Foley chews SOS a new one and forces him on the plane to fly to Sebring. When he finally arrives two and a half hours late after his introduction he gets up and takes his folding chair and throws it from the stage and storms off. That's the ultimate FU to the biggest booster UF has had. Talk about big brass balls.

In Eddie Sutton's last years at Arkansas it was becoming more apparent that he had a drinking problem.There was alot of talk about his actions while drinking.

When Kentucky hired Eddie away from us they actually did Broyles a favor so he wouldn't have to make a decision to fire him.

When Eddie said he would crawl to Kentucky,I just figured that's the only way he could get there....

I was a student at UK during Sutton's tenure. It wasn't that long before rumors of his drinking issues were spreading around the student body. There were stories of being picked up by Lexington police and driven home with no charges or media attention.

But pre-internet and the grown ups didn't believe or denied. I remember telling my mom and dad and they told me it was just "kids making up rumors to get attention."

When the truth came out I might've said I told you so

I thought, surely this can't be true. No way that got through all the planning stages into implementation, but Google was my friend:

Probably not, so here's an afternoon's entertainment for those who are not aware. This guy is eaten up with it.

We had a vertically-challenged coach who was doing the Governor's ex-wife.
