What did JJ inherit and what did Benford inherit? JJ - a complete mess of a program where no one really wanted to go play nor go watch? TB - a program that had made it to NCAA's, a program gaining popularity, fans, and a place where some guys with talent wanted to go play at. What will we have once TB is fired? Exactly what JJ had…or worse.

Cerebus mentioned earlier that journalist Simon Ostrovosky had been released. Following is a video of him in early March detailing what has been happening in Ukraine. Dozens and dozens of these on VICE.com.

If you have a little time, take a gander at this site: http://www.globalfirepower.com Lays out rankings of countries as it relates to their traditional military firepower etc. Some interesting figures. In theory, the US could load all 10 of its carriers to capacity (130) with strikers/interceptors, steam over to Russia and enjoy a nearly 2-1 advantage in the sky while still having almost 1k strike aircraft in reserve.

makes me sad.

Speaking of updates - do you happen to have any? Love reading them.

Andy Flusche - 6'3" 230lb DT - yowza - I hope he and Sed Ellis eat some biscuits this summer.

In case you missed this episode of Ukraine's Got Talent.

Funny. Just last night I was having a conversation with a guy very well connected to college sports. (Not NT.) And he said that the "going rate" for a college basketball player is about $25k. He also said that basketball pays more across the board than football.

Go Team ShaLayLay!

BTW Billy, with Busby quitting football does that add yet another ship to the class?

Thanks for the insight. Always.

9 of how many? 25?

Mechanical Engineer major. Wowzers. How you could do that and play football is testament to this kids desire.

Busby quit? Thats news to me.

His name seemed to come up in the Sat scrimmage notes a bit. In a good way. You think he may play against Texas with a sizable chip on his shoulder?

Confirmed. Boutwell ran a 4.9 - 40.

IBTL

I just got a report that Boutwell ran 4.9 in the 40. Which seems way more reasonable.

Could just be a feint.

This is interesting. http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2014/03/30/america-may-have-just-unveiled-a-new-weapon-to-com.aspx

If you subscribe to HBO you owe it to yourself to watch the latest Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel and their discussion of wholesale academic fraud amongst the power players in college football. Professors from UNC, OU and elsewhere discuss the fraudulent "General Studies" degrees etc and former players talk about the machine, how they are sucked in and once they realize what's really happening, it is too late.

Thanks Silver Eagle.
