So basically, if Mangino ever learned about a painful incident from a player's background, he stored that little nugget away so he could break it out at the precise moment when it would do the most damage to the player's psyche. That's talent.
Earlier this season, when Mangino told freshman receiver Oedipus Jones that he'd "send him back to his mommy," Jones popped a hard-on and started packing his bags.
@Phintastic: Muchas gracias. (I had to search high and low for my old Cliff's Notes, but I think I got it right. Please call my former English teacher, Mrs. Haversham, and tell her I amounted to something after all.)
Yeah, but Brown gave his interview while sitting on the stoop, drinking a 40 of Old E wrapped in a brown bag, and nursing a gunshot wound to his leg...so maybe we should be praising Mangino's skills as a prophet.
But my personal opinion is it's not much worse than what you would get at another university.
Not true. It is much worse at Penn State where the coach insists the trainers use only leaches to treat injuries and player discipline is delivered "Andrew Jackson" style.

If that's the best insult he has, it's no wonder he didn't recruit any of Ted Kennedy's kids.

And knowing the origin of everyone's nickname is why everyone calls me Stevie Nicks. That and my relationahip with Don Henley.

This is also what the Comment Ninja says to lazy Deadspinners who do nothing but quote Steve Carell.
