John L. Smith is my hero.

[Christian Lowe]

He reminds me of Robbie Caldwell with the way media day went for him. I hope his tenure lasts longer than Robbie's, because the SEC needs someone like this. He seems to be very laid back, and quite frankly.. Insane. It's refreshing.

He had a lot of fun poking at George Lapides in his press conference.

I hate Lapides. Is he the one that asked if Smith wanted to be coach for more than a year?

 

[TrueOrange]

Yep

Also asked if Arkansas had started talking to / negotiating with Smith before they officially announced Petrino was fired

He responded with something along the lines of "can I get an intelligent question" I think

 

[tvolsfan]

It's too bad he's an awful coach.

I had Commissary last night actually.

 

[volsfan75]

If he stays any longer than Caldwell, Jeff Long should be fired.

Oh, you can beat Bama with him, but you can lose to Vandy, and Middle Tenn State with him as well.

I absolutely agree!! 1000010%

Ive been listening to Mike since his very first day on radio, back in Lansing MI, a decade or so ago. He is quality entertainment, especially when something is out of kilter. Best rants ever!

I wish I had a copy of the day that all phone calls were in "Chewbachan" in honor of Kurt Warners wife. Freaking classic stuff.
