Around SBN: Champions League Preview with Jimmy Conrad

Greg Paulus kissed a boy, TO watched thegame

Big surprise there...


I'm not going into the Georgia Tech debacle, I'm not even looking at the myriad of articles full of player interviews and excuses. We shit the bed, theres not much else to say or analyze about it. OP needs to light a cherry bomb under their asses. At least Ben came through and made me feel better, as he usually does.

Thankfully Terrell Owens was watching in person, oh joy. Why does anyone give a damn what that crybaby does?

Notice what Karl Hicks says in the article though:

Crowds were sparse Thursday, as fans for Clemson and North Carolina (which does not play until today) formed the largest contingencies.

"We’re not recession-proof," Karl Hicks, ACC associate commissioner for basketball, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.


HEY DUMBASS, PUT IT BACK IN GREENSBORO OR PUT IT IN CHARLOTTE. YOULL SELL MORE TICKETS THAT WAY. I swear these fits of genius I have are incredible.

Korncoot is stirring up news about Purnell going to Alabama.

Clemson basketball coach Oliver Purnell is one of Alabama's primary targets for the Crimson Tide's vacant basketball coaching job according to a knowledgeable source familiar with the search. The source said Alabama is very interested in Purnell and the feeling appears to be mutual. Alabama is looking for a replacement for Mark Gottfried who resigned under pressure in late January.



Baseball
Clemson thumped WF 4-1 and 6-1 to sweep today's doubleheader. Since linux was being a bitch, I couldn't listen to the games and can't tell you anything else about them. Parker broke out of his slump, so I guess Jack doesn't need to rest him just yet. Saturday is cancelled, Sunday at 1pm is the next scheduled start.

Football
Clemson did its usual duty and self-reported secondary violations (THANKS BECKY BOWMAN) friday. There is no cause for alarm: everybody reports them and everybody has secondaries to report, usually because of some nuance in a rule that nobody knows about, BUT BECKY DOES.

Commits Joe Craig (194) and DeAndre Hopkins (115) made the first Rivals250 list. Both are technically listed as "athlete" on the list.

Clemson has contacted former UT DL coach Dan Brooks about the open DT coaching job. He now works in an administrative role (like WoodyMac) for Tennessee. Woody coached with Brooks at Tennessee, back when they were pulling in every DL and RB recruit of note. However, Dabo took a vacation for this weekend, and no interview is expected until next week.

Did you read that Joe Craig said that our coaches told him that if he committed, then they would not take any other receivers besides him and Martavis Bryant? I don't see that because they are still after several WR's and there is talk that Hopkins could play WR. Personally, I see Hopkins going to defense because he will get a chance to get on the field right away (with the departure of Chancellor and Butler).

Yes, that is what they told him.

The early commitment of Hopkins seems to have surprised them though, and they have still offered a few other guys at WR. I think they're being flexible and giving themselves the leeway to maybe move people around once they actually get here.

Well it at least looks like we'll have a good WR class, hopefully with another commit or two it'll be rated as well as the 2001 class was....and turn out better.
