Blame Meyer for Tebow’s injury, no one else

Blame Meyer for Tebow’s injury, no one else

The entire Tim Tebow situation is appalling. The media is blowing this blame game way out of proportion as some are blaming the refs, the questionable hit, the coach, etc. The worst case of finger pointing I’ve seen to date is blaming the BCS for Tebow’s injury. When you look at the entire situation, there is only one person to blame, and that’s Coach Meyer. He is consumed by winning and consumed by winning with the son he never...

Sheffield gets 1st Collegiate Start

It’s official, Texas Tech’s Taylor Potts will not dress for this Saturday’s game against Kansas State. Potts is still recovering from a concussion he sustained during the first half of last week’s New Mexico game. Potts never made it back and missed the entire second half.

$partans win big over the Vandals

$partans win big over the Vandals

The Matador is back at par winning big last week bringing the season record to 2-2. Now to break out of the tie, I urge you all to stay away from the prime-time games– AVOID the Florida and Michigan games. Your money is better well spent on a game that draws little to no attention. This week’s lock is San Jose State over Idaho. Idaho may appear to be a better team with a better record and better statistics, but...

After starting the season with...

Traveling Man

There was a time with Mitch Mustain was one of the most highly touted recruits in the country. He committed to Arkansasand people in Fayetteville thought that they’d see multiple national championships with him behind center. Mustain was one of the most decorated HS recruits in history winning the 2005 Gatorade, Parade, and USA Today player of the year awards. My how the times have changed. Fast forward four years and not only is Mustain not at Arkansas, but he’s so far back...

SC’s Saunders Out

SC’s Saunders Out

South Carolinais heading into Saturday’s match-up against Kentucky without star TE Weslye Saunders. Saunders injured his ankle in last week’s beat-down of South Carolina State. The 6’5 TE aggravated the ankle which has given him troubles before in the past. In his absence, SC will be forced to start Justice Cunningham. Cunningham has seen action in all of South Carolina’s games this season so they will have some experience to turn to while Saunders recovers.

AD may not be focused on football

AD may not be focused on football

If you are wondering why Marshall’s football team (3-2, defeats at the hands of Va Tech and East Carolina) isn’t doing so well, it could be the fact that the Athletic Director has his mind on other things. Mike Hamrick was hired back in July as Marshall’s AD. Since he was immediately leaving his AD post at UNLV, he advised the president that he needed temporary housing. Due to budget constraints, the president offered Hamrick residence on-campus in the South...
