LSU: Al Coffee

I realize that’s going back many years.

Overall college: Gabe “Senor Sack” Rivera, Texas Texh.
A salute to an outstanding coach and recruiter for the Tigers. May he rest in peace.
Those LSU and Tennessee teams cited above were consistent throughout the entire season.

This Oklahoma team was not.

He’s too old.

And he’s starting to get the Hogs program going a bit better.
Just think of all the college teams who would love to be in the position OU is now.
As you and the other posters realize, OU is now 4-1 at Omaha.

Tonight’s game is for all the marbles. The pitching matchup could perhaps favor the Sooners, but it appeared that way yesterday going into the game.
Kiffin so far has been more willing than previous coaches to address the tough questions.
That doesn’t seem likely at this point, but I could definitely expect fewer conferences than currently exist.
The SEC teams whose fans travel well didn't make it to the title game.
He’s taken criticism for various things. Would the fans appreciate it? Would he help or jinx the Tar Heels?

Cain is like a boomerang.
Have any of these two-sport scholarship athletes been better in basketball than football? I am not recalling one at quick glance, but could have missed someone.

The main one I recall is Marcus Spears whose focus was football and who played basketball it seems like just his freshman year.

Reminds me of Ole Miss a few years back. Weren't the Rebels the cellar dweller, lost early in SEC Tourney, then won it all? And there are other examples likely already cited and to be cited in this thread.

That's the way these things go--also remember in the NCAA basketball tourney, two of the biggest upsets ever, N.C. State over Houston in 1983 and Villanova over Georgetown, when Villanova hit over 70 percent from the field.

Don’t take it. You can do other things. Conditioning seems okay, might consider the low fat diet among other things.
Perhaps Haven can join the Tigers later as a transfer.

Best of luck to Coach O and Kiffin to get this guy.

Since you brought up Solomon Thomas, is there anything new about his health status? Apologies if I missed any previous updates.

But I had been wondering.

Thankfully, NO/

Good riddance to the Bulldogs.
There's usually (if not always) great defense that takes place when a team wins a national championship.

To me, those plays by Morgan especially and Pearson in left field will be unforgettable.
There's been a few corners who have been worthless the last few years.

Burns was mediocre and sometimes a bit above, but not the worst.

It's good for him that he appears to be doing well in the professional ranks.

I know he was trashed quite a bit by the posters on this site.
Perhaps one or more of you programming guys can help. When there is a software update on my Apple MacBook, it must download a new driver connection.

I had this same issue two months ago and it was resolved quickly. But not so this time.

AI could not do it, after many frustrating hours. And after I got the fourth different Epson Technical Support person, I finally got him to understand that last time, it was emailed to me. This time when I got the email, I hit the link and it was blank. This is extremely disappointing and frustrating!
The Rebels can have him.

He doesn't appear to be en route to be the next Chase Shores.
