THURSDAY NEWS

BASKETBALL UPDATE

Clemson whomped Wofford in basketball 93-40, marking the largest margin of victory under Oliver Purnell’s tutelage. Terrence Oglesby scored 15 in limited minutes to lead the Tigers in their home opener. Clemson was uncharacteristically skilled from the line, draining 16 of 18 freebies.

HAPPY 39TH, DABO

We got you a new contract? Maybe? In a couple weeks?

DON’T GO, DOG.

Apparently David Hood over at Tigernet heard about that sad, sad little page UGA fans made (Don’t Go Dawgs) to lure their stars back another year and decided to write his own passionate appeal on the subject of our own star, CJ Spiller. The subtlety titled “Heisman or NFL for Spiller” is well written, if not a little sappy, but drifts dangerously close to creepy fan territory. The article is carefully crafted propaganda, hitting on the talking points of how misused Spiller was under Bowden and how if he stays around next year under a Swinney administration he’d probably get like a million yards. The cynic in me says that Spiller has learned from watching James Davis’s 4th year essentially be wasted, and that he’s as good as gone regardless of who the next coach is.

CHECK AND MATE.

This must be part of yesterday’s DSOT star Bird’s plan to lure Mark Richt to Clemson; send him secret envoys in the form of disillusioned Clemson recruits. Brilliant.

ESPN takes a look at some of the slimy shit coaches like Kentucky’s Billy Gillispie and Kansas’s Bill Self are doing to land the big recruits. If it was Clemson doing the same sorts of thing (or if it is), would you be okay with that as long as we won? Kansas bought Mario Chalmers and got a national championship trophy out of it.

HOLY SHIT SPACE SPIDERS FROM SPACE!!!

    I was actually just about to comment onthat article “Heisman or NFL for Spiller”. According to Hood he’s a first-round draft pick with Top-10 potential. If that’s the case there’s virtually no way he stays, especially with the debacle that has been James Davis’ senior year, as Block-C pointed out. I think Spiller is a great player but there’s almost no way he wins the Heisman next year, regardless of his numbers. I just don’t see us being a good enough of a team for him to be up for consideration.

    i 100% agree. i think that article belongs in the DSOT file. what the fuck was david hood thinking to start talking heisman this early. cj is a great football player, and I’m not discounting his chance of being a heisman contender, but really, its way too fucking early to start talking about heisman. if cj is going to take the trophy then he will need a damn strong O-line to help him get into open space, and i’m not sure that’ll be happening as early as next year.

    Don’t mean to be a correcter, but any mouthbreathing, coach-stalking Tigernetter can tell you that DABO HAS BEEN ALL-IN FOR ONLY 39 YEARS!!

    And I think you meant Mike Gundy, unless of course Mike Leach is also a man.

    Damn… yeah i meant Gundy. nice pickup. Everyone this morning on Tnet said he was 40… why I listened to them, I do not know.
