    Is the opening music because they are not smart men? But do they know what love is?



    Good to see the excitement around Arkansas State and the willingness of new head coach Freeze to give us a peak inside (whereas before everything was so closed off)
    From yesterday's player's meeting.

    Parkinson’s diagnosis forces Kragthorpe to step aside as LSU’s coordinator

    It was expected and known that LSU would have a new offensive coordinator heading into the 2011 season. What wasn’t expected was that the new coordinator wouldn’t be Steve Kragthorpe.

    Such is the case, unfortunately, as LSU announced Thursday afternoon that Kragthorpe has decided to step down as the team’s offensive coordinator. Kragthorpe was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, which prompted the decision to step aside.

    Greg Studrawa will take over as the Tigers’ coordinator, although Kragthorpe will remain on the staff as the quarterbacks coach. Studrawa received what head coach Les Miles referred to as a “battlefield promotion” roughly two weeks ago.

    “I hope for the next 8 to 12 years I can still be here coaching the QBs. At this point, it is best for me to only coach the QBs,” a statement attributed to Kragthorpe on the school’s official football Twitter feed read.

    Kragthorpe was hired by LSU in January of this year to replace Gary Crowton, who left to take the same position at Maryland following the 2010 season. In July of 2010, and five months after he was hired for the position, Kragthorpe resigned as Texas A&M’s wide receivers coach due to medical issues involving his wife.

    Our best wishes and prayers go out to Kragthorpe as he fights his way through this battle with Parkinson’s.

    WTF? The AP Preseason Poll is awful. The Coaches poll was MUCH better.

    No way we deserve to be 16th at all. I think we're 28th-30th. I accept 25 on the Coaches. Miami at 25? West Virginia at 24? Florida State at 13 (this tastes like vomit in my mouth, but I think the Coaches Poll had them about right...)? Oregon at 1? That School at 11?


    EDIT: Hmm. I don't think that's a legit poll. I can't find it anywhere else.

    Wow, did a f'ing braindead monkey create that poll. How the fuck does 6-6 Notre Dame get an 11 ranking? What the hell did they do, just put the names of the most popular teams in the game, actually pick the top 5, and then draw out of a hat for the rest or something?

    I think, as someone else said, it's fake.

    God, I sure hope so, because if that was real, a whole bunch of people who vote in the AP poll need to be shot.

    I don't think. USA Today has ND at 18

    People think ND improved over the last half of last season and finished strong, plus they have some pretty good players on defense. Plus they reinstated Floyd. If they get just average QB play, they'll be a decent team that should be able to hang. I'd say one could argue that somewhere in the #18-23 range is reasonable for them. 11? Nah, no way. Too many questions.

    In trying to determine the legitimacy of this poll (and I believe it is fake), I saw that the AP Preseason Poll will be released on August 20th.

    Alright, my mistake. I somehow ended up with 2009's standings on ESPN rather than 2010 when I looked them up earlier.

    Still, no way in hell is Notre Dame realistically a #11 ranked team. #17 tops.
