    Please don`t waste $$$ on a search firm. Ask Dawn for a list of 5-10 names & go from there. Seriously, she knows who

    Granted, I don't see much reason to believe Tanner can go out and land a great coach, but...Dawn? Do people really think the women's coach is that plugged in to the men's coaching world? In my limited coaching experience, the men's and women's games are almost different sports altogether.

    College football needs more Matt Corrals. A lot of them.

    It is quite possible to like a player and hate some of his decisions. If you're expecting fan-bases in general to get behind the fact that some players choose to sit out games to 'prepare for the draft', it isn't going to happen. Many people expect to see players finish the season and not quit...

    Did the first girl you ever ask out say yes or no(girls did you tell the first guy yes or no)

    My first attempt was a 'yes'. Well, first REAL attempt...I'm not counting that massive whiff when I was 11. On a side note: you can't go wrong with this line as your ice-breaker. Simply walk up to a girl, hold out your drink and ask; "Excuse me, but does this taste like roofies to you?"

    Would I be over reaching to say Chinese are taking this to a new level?…

    Maybe the Olympic Committee (and more specifically, the civilized world) should stop awarding the Olympics to countries ruled by totalitarian governments (China), countries with poor human rights records (China) and borderline 3rd World countries.

    MBB: With 8 games left, what record gets us into the NCAAT?

    While it may be mathematically possible, I don't think its possible in theory. But, to address your scenario: I think 7-1 down the stretch might get us in. That leaves us 11-7 in conference, 20-10 overall. We may still need some SECT help, but we'd be firmly in the discussion.

    Odds of WBB winning the National Championship....

    I agree. Those were different times (and teams) to be sure.

    Odds of WBB winning the National Championship....

    I'll get in on the odds-making. First, I do think Dawn's team is the favorite to win, but I don't think any team has a 50% chance at this point. I'd say there's about a 15-20% chance of the girls going undefeated during the NCAA tournament. I don't think I'd give any other team more than 10%.

    Washington Admirals.

    There's nothing wrong with standing out or embracing traditions. Yes, its an EPL tradition but I'm not sure why teams need nicknames anyway. Are there really a group of giants playing in NY? Does the SF team spend its free time panning for gold? Is the college team in the upstate composed of...

    Washington Admirals.

    Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'd have liked to see them just remain the Washington Football Team. It would have kind of a European soccer feel to it.

    I'm a Little Shocked at Auburn's new Deal with Bruce Pearl...

    Auburn is clearly worried that Pearl will be poached by a basketball blueblood. I agree that it is a risk to invest this much in a guy like Pearl, but with the NCAA losing so much of their bite, it is probably one worth taking.
