Can we find a half Wit to play halfback and take Whit's handoffs?

Has my hearing gone dyslexic or did I hear L.S.U.'s coach describe Skenes and Crews as "better players than people" in his post game interview tonight? I guess if I were coach, or an L.S.U. fan, I would be okay with that in these times.

Happened to have sat behind Ross Neltner at one of the regional games this past weekend. He is obviously doing well financially--he was able to keep his companions, who were three young boys, satisfied with offerings from the concession stand.

Wasn't Joe Staley from long ago and a faraway galaxy a walk-on From Highland Park?

At least the chuggers knew how to act like they'd been there before.

Forgot to have their batsmith "winterize" those bats or could it be the curse of having Ethan Smith transfer out of the program?

I feel as though I'm taking an IQ test every time I engage in my angry search for the link for the radio broadcast. Unfortunately, IQ tests are becoming ever more challenging for me. Lately when the link is not at the bottom of the "page" where the sporting events schedule is given, I'm fi...

Thank you for the information, Commadore. I can now put my 9-volt transistor radio back in mothballs.

To listen to Vanderbilt sports online I have always clicked on the "listen" option which appears on the schedule at the end of the vucommodores website. I see no such option for these three games. I would appreciate any help in accessing the broadcast online as I am still bogged down in th...

The good news is the Chugger defense seems to consist of a loud crowd disrupting communications of the opponent's offense plus ten guys and a chirperback. This week the Chugger defense will have to operate on no more than one third of its effective decibel level. I'll be there. I have Chugger fanati...

No reason to think the Constitution applies here, but the rule as quoted would seem to fall in the vague and overbroad area and prohibit activities which are surely "legal" such as allowing random fans and visitors to stroll the field after the Spring game.

Ah, 2022--a schadenfreude trifecta.

It certainly seems as though we've had more than our share of gut-wrenching, game-changing bad calls. I've been around long enough to have had the misfortune of witnessing a number of them. In recent history a missed call for conduct bordering on the criminal came to my mind: Chuggers' Jujuan Jennin...

Interesting that wooden bats were used. Now that baseballs are taken out of play for barely grazing the carpet, I wonder why the college game can't afford wooden bats. This would seem to take away the possibility of what seemed to me to be "high tech" cheating with the metal bats and would...

If we do anything different, why not just let half their fans assist us with a "whiteout"? Otherwise, we may just look like another stadium packed with Gatorade coolers. (Goldore68, I would substitute "ticketholders" for "fans" in your post.)

Since there is no longer amateurism, any reason we can't just pick up some guys cut from pro football teams with eligibility left? There should be a bunch of them--maybe now motivated by the real world to get a degree. Since college athletes have the right to be professional and be eligible, it woul...

I won't argue that the UT band displays good sportsmanship though I am surprised that they still show up after having to flee the rain of water bottles and more laughable missiles heaved by the good sports in the stands leading their lives of loud desperation last year at the Ole Miss game. I agree ...

Should checkering ever become likely, why not just have a "whiteout" game?

Thank you much. I never got past the women's dorm on the Peabody campus.

Could someone please direct me to the Commons Lawn? I'm the same guy who was shamed by a graduate student for not knowing where the library was when I was a junior, I believe.
