Put on my green tennis shoes and
I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Liberty Bowl
In the middle of a green parade

Coach Dan McCarney
Won't you look down over me
Yeah, I got a Liberty Bowl ticket
and I'm as green as a boy can be

Then I'm bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis
Is this really real?

I saw the ghost of Hayden on Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of the stadium
Then I watched him walk right through

Now, security did not see him
They just hovered round the entrance
But there's a pretty major bowl game
Waiting for the fans
And it's down on the Memphis field

When I was bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis
Is this really real?

Now, they've got hot girls on the sidelines
They've touchdowns on the field
And Coach MaCarney, be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis

Now, Talons shoot the cannon
And they run the flags after scores
And they brought me down to field level
And they asked me if I would
Run the Big Ass Flag
And I ran with all my might
They said, "Tell me are a Mean Green fan?"
And I said, "Man I am for life!"

Bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
