Why is everyone so happy about Georgia's offense all the sudden? Just because they ran and threw all over USCe? I mean they aren't a slouch defense but I mean come on. If Georgia does that against Alabama then I will be concerned but until then I will still wait and see if they can do against good defenses. Throwing that is. Georgia's running attack is great.

south carolina is a slouch defense.

We hear a lot about how all these student athletes are living below the poverty line. And yet it hit me today lookin through a photo gallery that just about every college football player has serious ink. I have a friend who runs a tattoo shop, and asked him about the dollar value of some of that work. Let's just say, if you're gonna claim to be going hungry in college, I'm gonna be checking your tats (apologies to Bob Mueller). :)

Yes, if they were sacrificing food for tattoos, you would expect them to be emaciated, which they certainly are not. Perhaps, all of that Pell Grant money goes exclusively to fund tattoo expenditures (see, for example, Pell Grants for Players: Division I athletes in Alabama got $4.8 million in need-based aid | AL.com), thus "necessitating" a cost-of-attendance-gap stipend. As for my Chicken Nation remark, I've always found it laughable that any university would deliberately choose a fighting chicken as a mascot. That's only a tiny step above Mud Hens, for example.

Spoke with a coach he was with at the UT vs OU gm and he said it's gonna be hard to get Mecole out of the state as UGA is pulling all strings to get him. But he also said UT was by far his close #2

This very true these kids get refunds and buy jewelry, Jordans, KDs, Lebrons, and tatoos that cost anywhere from $200+. This is what drove us at NPA to make these kids learn 1. How to speak in interviews, 2. Money management, 3. critical decision making.
