Football Lives Here.

New posts
To keep others here from getting the pleasure in doing it, I will go ahead and announce that it seems there has been impropriety in FSU's office of Academic Support. An internal investigation has been ongoing since March, and they are now sending their findings to the NCAA. The short version is that we had a tutor who was overzealous in spreading knowledge of exam questions.

It was stated that most of the athletes affected are from spring sports, though they took care to mention that no baseball or track players are involved. (My question: then what? Golf? Swimming? Tennis? :idontno: ) Also, no current football players are involved. (The internet rumor mill has identified two team members who had not been cleared to play this year. Current thought is that this is why.)

While other media outlets around the state are happily spewing that hundreds of athletes in all sports are involved, the actual text of the audit is online in the Tallahassee Democrat. I would encourage those who are quick to judge to read all 17 pages. Now it will be wait and see what the NCAA will do.

WHY oh effin WHY does this crap keep happening at my beloved university? :bang: :angry:

Oh, and the office is not managed by the Athletic Department, so there.
 
I might point out something Saban did that really bit him, and just might bite Florida if Tebow gets hurt playing deep into routs.

LSU started 2002 5-1 with a road loss to Virginia Tech as the lone blemish. Game 6 of the season was a 36-7 win over Florida in Le Swamp. For some reason, Saban kept starting QB Matt Mauck in the game way after it was a done deal, and he ended up hurting his foot (I think he broke a bone). Mauck was done for the year, and the team finished the year losing 4 of their last 7 behind the backup QB.

To be fair, I give him a Mulligan for losing to Auburn that year-his mom died on Monday or Tuesday of the game week so he missed all week of practice and basically showed up for the game in Auburn Saturday-and it showed.
 
Hey Kurt...Check out ESPN Classics tomorrow night. '94 Auburn/ Florida game is on. ;-)

Auburn was on probation under shorty. I was a freshman in high school at a volleyball tournament and we were listening on the radio. First time I'll actualy see the game.
 
Yes. Don't go to Kroger the first Wednesday of the month. It's Senior Citizen's Day and those bitties will run you over for a deal.

I didn't know Kroger had any deals. :lol: With the Kroger Plus card prices are hiked even higher and then when you use that Kroger Plus card it actually brings the prices down to what they should be anyway. Now it is a deal with their brand of cereal if you can get it 3 for $5.00 and their milk when it is on sale 2 gallons for $5.00, when it is. Hadn't seen that in a while. Their 10 for $10 items sometimes are bargains. But that is about it.
