How blatantly does Eric Bieniemy have to fail to fail upward?
I just want to point out that coaches like Bobby Petrino and Hugh Freeze, who should be banned for life from the collegiate ranks, are still getting high-profile coordinator and head coaching opportunities. Yet Bieniemy, who isn’t a saint but also didn’t wreck his motorcycle with his mistress on the...
Michael Lewis seems like kind of a jerk

The Southeastern Conference’s lack of remodeling for next season has everyone frustrated

Deion Sanders to Colorado is the 'fish out of water' comedy I want to see
It’s a comedic style we’ve seen in Hollywood plenty over the years. The fish-out-of-water mentality. Pluck the main character from their established world and place them into a weird situation where any semblance of normality is gone. Legally Blonde nails it. So does The Jerk. My favorite of that ge...

Finally, some Ole Miss drama that doesn’t involve Lane Kiffin
Ole Miss has been a haven for fun, light-hearted drama ever since Sandra Bullock won an Academy Award for her role in The Blind Side. Immediately after the movie was released, the Rebels had their first losing season in three years. They’ve had four different head coaches since and exactly five winn...

Hugh Freeze Switches From Hospital Bed To Medical Chair, But Liberty Loses Again
Hugh Freeze, who is still recovering from a staph infection, should definitely be in bed munching on ice pellets, but he won’t stop jeopardizing his health for Liberty football, dammit.

Hugh Freeze Probably Should've Just Stayed Home

Meet "The Fridge," Who Is Like "The Freeze" But Larger And More Cunning

Hugh Freeze Gets New Job In Football League That Doesn't Exist Yet

Hugh Freeze Thinks The "Climate In America" Is Keeping Him Out Of College Football

Houston Nutt Settles, Gets An Apology From Ole Miss
