    Did Natalie ever explain the shot, vball? It's always been funny, but I felt bad for the poor girl.

    BTW, Duck, good to see you posting. Isn't Vernon Adams the QB that was not allowed to use the Eastern Washington training facilities since he was heading to Oregon? I remember some buzz about that.

    I prefer the classic song girls outfit. The sleeveless combo with that high of a neck looks like they're being choked out by their tops.

    Thanks Brian. Yep, the Eastern Washington coach said that their weight rooms and such were out of bounds for Adams. Can't blame the coach really. I think the graduate student transfer loop hole is unfair to the FBS schools, they spent a lot of money, training him and providing the facilities, then when he's at his best as a senior,.. he takes a hike.

    It's not really fair to the players on the team he transfers to either,.. they work hard then a hired gun comes in and takes over their spot. They should eliminate that rule I think,.. guess I can live with it this year though,.. Adams is first rate. :):):):)

    .....More specifically, the game will be the finale of the seventh-ranked Ducks' and fifth-ranked Spartans' cross-conference home-and-home series, an arrangement that is immensely popular for fans and "awesome" for college football, said UO coach Mark Helfrich. But in a sport where one ill-timed loss can sink a team's College Football Playoff hopes such matchups are often regarded, and with good reason, by coaches and athletic directors with a sentiment that echoes Griffin's — "crazy."

    "Nobody's ever going to reward a one-loss team over an undefeated team and that's where I certainly understand why teams play in their mind or in your mind 'nobody, nobody, nobody' in their nonconference schedule," Helfrich said. "That makes a lot of sense in the modern day College Football Playoff system. But at the same time if I'm a fan or a fan of my team or college football in general, these games are awesome.".....

    I'm sure you can live with your Seahawks getting Jimmy Graham from the Saints too.

    I'm not against the rule. If Braxton Miller had decided to transfer to LSU I would be glad to have him. College football at the top level is as much a business as the NFL. If coachers are free to jump ship for a better opportunity I certainly don't see anything wrong with allowing a player who has graduated from one college and has a year of eligibility left to improve his draft stock at another university.

    It's a very tricky situation, because you can see both sides. You develop a kid then he leaves for greener (ha) pastures. Still, the kid has to look out for his future as coaches always do. No doubt, B.

    Regarding Jimmy, I'm thrilled to have Unger and the pick that became Stephone Anthony. Jimmy was fun to watch, but he is a soft player and had a bit of an attitude at the end. Hope the best for him, except when he plays the black and gold, naturally. I think it's a rare trade where both teams will hugely benefit.

    I wonder if Drew Brees was consulted about the trading of his favorite receiver.

    Drew became too dependent on Jimmy though. He'd throw at Graham when he was triple covered and it led to some terrible decisions, turnovers, or just incompletes. Drew is at his best when he's spreading the ball around and not favoring one dude.

    I really wish LSU would incorporate throwing to the tight ends especially and also the running backs more. It opens up the field and makes you defend everyone. I think we should see that this year especially with Guice and Fournette being able to catch and run so well.

    I wonder why a good pass catching tight end in high school would even consider signing with LSU

    The thing is that Les needs to find a tight end that can truly block AND catch it well and then USE him. Do that for just one season and he'll be able to go get any tight end he wants. The thing is few tight ends these day are two way players that way, and Les will always favor the smash mouth run blocker.
