2011 College Football Part II: Bowls, The Rematch, and Recruiting >Tebow

Colored fields are hideous. Can't stand them. But, I'm surprised more teams don't go to them, as it provides extra home field advantage. Your players are used to playing on the colored field, while the opponents have to get used to it.

You might be right, but I wonder how much it matters at field level? I think back to my playing days and never recalled looking at the field, but of course it was always green so maybe it would creat havoc for at least a quarter before the visitor got used to it? Of course football is such a visual experience for so many beyond the players and seeing fields like that just hurts my eyes. **** I'm getting old...

Texas-San Antonio was thinking about putting orange turf in the Alamodome for their move to FBS. Thank goodness they didn't. Maryland was also rumored to be going with black turf, but that didn't go through either.

If Maryland was thinking about black turf, they were probably going to have to have a coroner on the field as well, because they would have killed a kid from heat stroke. Those turfs are hot enough in late August-early September, without having the black field to deal with. That's just an unconscionably bad idea.

That's fine, but I don't see how killing 21 year olds by broiling them on a 150 degree field is going to raise much money.

Sell the fans bath salts and then offer broiled 21 year old for a donation?

Less than one week after the University of Miami hired Al Golden as coach, members of Golden's coaching staff began using Sean "Pee Wee" Allen – a then-equipment manager and onetime right-hand man of convicted Ponzi schemer Nevin Shapiro – to circumvent NCAA rules in the recruiting of multiple Miami-area players, Yahoo! Sports has learned.

Post of the year candidate right there. Well done!
 
Re: 2011 College Football Part II: Bowls, The Rematch, and Recruiting >Tebow

Oh my, it gets better, at least for me.

This guy is the equipment manager mentioned in the article, moments after the FSU kicker in picture missed (yet another) game winner in 2002 and added to the Wide Right/Wide Left history.

Nothing would make me happier to know that he's the cause of the NCAA pimp hand slapping Miami into a multi-decade tailspin.
 
So, if the NCAA had any real balls, they would slap the death penalty on both programs effective right now and then just have the other schools that were going to play those programs play each other because they're the only ones with open dates those days now. That would make a pretty interesting ACC-Big Ten crossover all season long.

Penn State, Miami (FL), Ohio State, USC should all get the death penalty for 10 years. No mention of football on any campus allowed. Throw in Notre dame for being turrible. I'm serious. Wouldn't bother me. Oh and Boise State for always complaining. and Florida State for being abusive. and LSU / Alabama for having obnoxious fans, and Auburn for what Cam Newton's dad allegedly did. And Cincinnati because I don't like them. Death Penalty. ALL of them.

Massachusetts ought to find a way to get the Penn State frosh / sophs to accelerate their transition to FBS.

Michigan 1,000 yard rusher Fitzgerald Touissant adds to the SE Michigan irritation and gets busted for a DUI.

The whole reason the Big Ten even brought in Penn State is gone now. The only reasons to keep them now are as a 12th member for a football championship game, the hockey conference, and women's volleyball.

Who's rich at Pitt? We just need him to start a hockey team and we can bring them in. I would say ND... but they already said they didn't want to play with us :(

This was a bad four years to not have PSU on the football schedule.
