Let’s ‘go check on Bubba,’ mayor reportedly told crew
The Clarion-Ledger, 2/11/9 While it was not unusual for Mayor Frank Melton to instruct his bodyguards to escort him on spontaneous knock-and-talks through Jackson neighborhoods, the original plan for one evening in August 2006 was to take a group of young men to a preseason professional football game. After the game between the Indianapolis Colts…

Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class
Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class Kiffin hasn’t even coached a college game.

Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews
Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews Though Mike Leach’s loyalty has been an issue in his stalled contract negotiations, documents obtained Monday from the International Marketing Group suggest that those concerns may be overstated.

What do recruiting rankings mean anyway?
What do recruiting rankings mean anyway? What do the recruiting rankings mean? That’s a question I often get, and based on the spirited discussion recruiting rankings can generate, it’s obvious to me that they mean very different things to different people.

Kiffin asks for beating by Florida
Kiffin asks for beating by Florida When Lane Kiffin grows up, he’s probably going to be more than a little embarrassed by the events surrounding his first National Signing Day as head coach at Tennessee.

Coach-In-Waiting Plan Needs to Go
Coach-In-Waiting Plan Needs to Go Haste always invites waste. Such was the case with my 30-second rant last Friday at the end of Around the Horn against the trend of college coaches designating successors. I expressed my amazement that Ralph Friedgen, the football coach at Maryland where I started teaching last semester, announced last Friday…

Beneath rivalry lies history of friendship
Beneath rivalry lies history of friendship Nolan Smith distinctly remembers the high school game when he followed teammate Ty Lawson’s score with one of his own. Then he watched Lawson steal the ball on defense and dribble all the way back to convert, again. It was a familiar scenario for the Oak Hill Academy guards.…
