  1. I was a political science major, and I have lots of friends who went on to law all over the country. Most of the young lawyers I know self-medicate.
  2. The Florida win was something, but no more impressive than Petrino's over WVU in 2007, and arguably less so. The only thing impressive about the Miami win was their name and how thorough it was. They were 9-3 and had lost three of their last five, including an 18 point loss to Duke.
  3. On the other hand, he couldn't win the AAC title with three first-rounder players...
  4. You make it sound like Sterling made one off-color comment and got banned from the NBA for it, which isn't the case at all.
  5. This Grantland conversation piece came out before the decision, but I think it lays it all out pretty well. Dude had to go.
  6. It's been a long time coming. Even someone without Sterling's history would have gotten the hammer over this, but for a guy that has done the things that he's done and said the thing's that he's said, all while being a non-contributory leach on the league for three decades? Who can say that they're surprised. And, yeah, he deserves every inch of it, and count me with Deuce as far as questioning people who have a problem with it. If Magic gets the team, I will be buying Clipper gear up.
  7. Not really, because in one case the tickets are likely walk-up free on game day, seeing as there are almost ten thousand empty seats. Probably also helped that Louisville, Florida, Alabama, Missouri and Tennessee fans bought up some of those tickets. I don't think FIU, Rutgers, Central Florida, Houston, and Memphis bring quite as many fans with them.
  8. Go look at various coaching rankings, most of the experts think we traded up. Personally, I think Strong is still growing into the position and will be a better coach down the road than he is now. I also think his PR skills with the fans were a negative, and his dictation of a conservative offense hurt the team on and off the field. Petrino is a much better fit in that regard, but I'm biased- I like to joke that football-wise, Bobby Petrino is my spirit animal. I also think Strong took one of the worst jobs he could have picked in terms of having traded up (no denying he did) but still stepping into a situation where I have my doubts that he will succeed. I also think that Vance Bedford had a lot more to do with Louisville's defensive success than a lot of people realize. That radar defense in the Miami game was beautiful.
  9. If Rick has said that, he's mistaken. Not even in basketball is half the city Kentucky fans.
  10. As far as that goes, I don't think Strong really cared about Tubman. I would say they certainly didnt put more resources into him than UK did with Bonnafon.
