too few joe paternos around these days.

i wasn't sure what les would do a few weeks ago, but i felt confident after his sec-day press conference. i got a lot of grief here, at work, and my husband did as well, for saying he was staying. turned out well in the end.

it's funny, all these hawg fans that we told 'wait til petrino does you like he has every one else' said 'well, les is leaving, you'll be looking for a coach too'. one, they were wrong, and two, two wrongs wouldn't have made it right.

I ( gag) have to say ...you were correct in saying he will stay.






But I shan't ever forgive you for it.

I really don't care either way...well...yeah I care. I want him to leave so I can rib you and Cajun to death for all the **** DD and I took for Saban leaving Miami.

you are RIGHT PP! if miles goes back to michigan, will he get treated like saban has? will the media and everyone else drag him through the mud and call him the devil, like they do CNS???

i still think he is going to michigan. had he lost the SECC game this would be all over by now. i don't think it's about money, it's about playing to win the NC.
these coaching searches have gotten ridiculous. Bama got beat up last year for it. well michigan and arky fans, how's it feel now? don't laugh to hard domers because you'll go through it again next year after weis gets fired.

yep. he already is going thru exactly what nick went through. they wouldn't let saban loose about it, and miles is being constantly shadowed as well.
but petrino takes the cake.

just found this on espn, about petrino--by forde, who apologizes to nick saban in the article!
nothing like seeing someone write an article that jibes completely with your own thoughts.

they have gotten ridiculous.
it's a shame that the athletes have restrictions regarding transferring, but coaches can do what they want, when they want. they should be made to wait til post season...an athlete has to wait to make a move, or hire an agent, or announce for the draft, etc.
if coaches had to wait to negotiate til the entire season was over, you wouldn't have all this mid season bs going on, or messing up bowl games, etc.
but then, the schools do it, so they suffer when it's done to them as well.
no honor among thieves.
