Mean Green 93-98

Lifer, Kentucky is SEC.

Actually, it looks like Dodge is converting him to a WR. He played QB his junior season.

Did I just hear someone take a cryptic shot at our AD?

Vito's got it posted: http://meangreenblog.dentonrc.com/ Good thing for him he keeps up with gmg.com.

Daniel, glad to have you aboard! Now that we have our first, let's get this ball rolling!

Talk about head in the sand. Obviously, you have mastered Al Franken's talking points (baseless assertions) well. I do not agree with the direction the Republican party has largely taken in the past few years, but overall there is no doubt that the Republicans are the "can do" (hope and inspiration) party; e.g., free markets, having success in Iraq, etc. The Democrats are the ones largely saying the world will fall in on us if we don't sign in on the Kyoto Protocol (fear). As far as hate, I can just mention the magical words "George W. Bush" around a liberal and see the fangs pop out.

Bump - this is necessary reading

I appreciate all who serve in our military, whether or not a bullet ever comes near them. Neither Al Gore nor George W. Bush should be demeaned for their military service, unless they try to make it mean something more than it really means. If you want a real war hero, look to George H.W. Bush or John McCain.

This has material I haven't seen anywhere else. Good quotes throughout. Link to main recruiting page Link to story Link to photos at TD qb/wr camp

Perhaps you missed the qualifying clause: We didn't quite make 8 wins last year, in case you hadn't noticed.

Nope. Just links to some leftist propaganda websites. No doubt the budget is inflated. Rarely can the government do anything in a remotely streamlined fashion. Yet the statistic is suggesting that the government could perform the task of educating every child in the world for $12 billion. I am very skeptical.

E.D., What is the basis for those statistics you cite in your signature? $12 billion to provide education to every kid on the earth? Realistically? The U.S. Dept. of Education administers a budget of $68.6 billion per year.

No way we win 8 and lose to Arky State. They look to be worse than FIU this year.

That is classic!

Well, much of the last recruiting class was solidified after the 2-10 season was over, and it turned out pretty well. However, if we do not see some improvement this season (preferably >5 wins), it will certainly hurt the next class. Potential only goes so far.

Good post, Lonnie.

I might have expected Troy to be a little higher.

I would be mighty happy to see things turn out like that. Our defense finish in the top 20 in the NCAA? That's bold, man. If our offense and defense were to finish in the top 20, we'd probably only lose the LSU game.

"Tiger Woods will miss the rest of the season because of a left knee that will require more surgery, a person with knowledge of the decision said Wednesday." http://cbs.sportsline.com/golf/story/10869927 I guess once you've won a U.S. Open like that, you've pretty much had a complete season.

I wish more states would make a similar statement. Not just with regard to the immigration issue, but states' rights have generally been trampled upon, while others conveniently make a false appeal to "states' rights" to do whatever they want. Even (strong central government advocate) Alexander Hamilton noted, "The proposed Constitution, so far from implying an abolition of the State governments, makes them constituent parts of the national sovereignty, by allowing them a direct representation in the Senate, and leaves in their possession certain exclusive and very important portions of sovereign power. This fully corresponds, in every rational import of the terms, with the idea of a federal government." (Federalist No. 9, 1787)

I generally agree with you. It seems that the best plan for the future is to start Vizza in '08 and redshirt Riley to prolong the time we will have one of these two outstanding quarterbacks behind center. But what if Riley catches up with and surpasses Gio? Don't you start your best QB now? And another thing to consider--Todd Dodge has been called the best quarterback coach in the state by none other than Mack Brown. Top-notch QBs will want to play for him, but not while Riley still has 4 years of eligibility. Riley's burning a redshirt this year may not be the worst thing--it may make it more attractive to recruiting top-notch QBs to the program who will backup and eventually succeed Riley.

Interesting . . .

He left UNT--I assume he transferred.

Nothing is unforgiveable, but these women seem to lack any measure of repentance (a prerequisite to forgiveness)--and even should they be forgiven, that does not exempt them from facing any consequences for their actions.

If winning were his main concern, he would not have gone to Rice. I assume he had other things in mind, and I can respect that--respectfully disagree, but respect that.
