    Coach Hugh Freeze said Ward's ACT was taken with special accommodations

    I have studied and worked with very capable people that really took them forever to read stuff; not bad readers, just slow as **** for whatever reason. They could manage it fine in the real world and even in school, but it killed them when taking timed tests. It does suck that when speed is one...

    Eulls will be the best player on the D-line this year...

    WIth the idea being that Eulls is big and strong enough to move inside on clear passing downs so you have basically 3 people that can get some sort of pass rush without leaving the interior too weak.

    Coach Hugh Freeze said Ward's ACT was taken with special accommodations

    Granted he could have been terrible, but the few interviews I saw of him made him seem like a true victim of the environment he came up in and maybe not having the greatest innate talents to overcome it. I could have gotten the wrong impression, and I'm sure he's probably not going to have a...

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS the crotch of a spouse or close relative, sign me up. Also, your rule of thumb results in a mistrial if you propose such an argument to the jury. So somebody thinks it's not such a good rule of thumb. Also makes...

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS I don't think it's disputed that the lady wasn't initially looking for a jackpot or that she was seriously injured. More or less every other "fact" is disputed. Again, I don't know which side is full of ****, or...

    Hearing good news coming on suspended

    I would assume that means it's an NCAA matter, but that can't be it b/c we all know the minimum suspension for a non-tire-loan related incident is a 1.25 seasons. So do we have a future Matlock on the team, casting a reasonable doubt as to his own guilt and negotiating our coaches down from...

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS

    CAUTION: Better make sure there are no black marble benches in the expansion of DWS There's a lot of disinformation coming from somewhere. Either trial attorneys realized that case was going to kill the goose that laid the golden egg and funded a serious pr campaign to make it sound worse than...

    Who wins? U.S.A Basketball vs. Europe in Ryder Cup style competition

    It would have looked different if the USA had another post player or two. With those players, I think it'd be pretty competitive. Don't have time to do it, but I'd like to see someone put together an international roster.

    Student Section

    I like the sentiment, but as long as there somewhere that can help with home field advantage, I'm fine with wherever they need to put them.

    Tobias Manning has left the plantation.

    But State may get to enjoy some success for a while since we had such a head start on getting rid of our incompetent AD that was holding us back. Hard to say what kind of hidden gems are on UM's roster just waiting for competent coaching (Crooms obviously had several), but it's possible Bucky is...

    Has there ever been a Dandy Dozen Sweep?

    I'll admit I don't pay a lot of attention to the dandy dozen each year, but I thought there was a private school player almost every year. Shocked there's only one every 3 years. How many of the Dandy Dozen don't get offers from MSU and OM?

    Has there ever been a Dandy Dozen Sweep?

    There's always going to be either a token private school player isn't SEC caliber or a skill player that is a good highschool player that just doesn't have the size or speed or whatever to play in the SEC.

    "Dying for Football to Start" Topic: Win One, Lose One

    If you get to pick two wins between LSU, Auburn, and UM, what do you pick? Another one that should be obvious, and I'd choose UM to be the loss, but I would at least think about it. Yes, beating LSU and Auburn would mean a special season even if we lost to UM, but that would also be an...

    Ole Miss ran their program into the ground because they signed players that didn't want to go there

    Ole Miss ran their program into the ground because they signed players that didn't want to go there Not sure who you're talking about in the current class, but you can probably see it better in basketball at MSU. I'd point to two different types of players. The first type is the player that is...
