by Kent Sterling The deal isn’t done yet, but it appears LSU will open their 2014 season against Wisconsin in Reliant Stadium. The quid pro quo is likely to bring LSU to Lambeau Field as the season opener in 2017. And I like it. LSU Athletic Director Joe Alleva told the media at the SEC […]
by Kent Sterling Stupid is as stupid does, until it’s reported in the media. It seems the only way anyone is penalized for operating outside acceptable parameters is if the media makes it impossible for any other outcome. Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee will resign July 1st because the university was having difficulty moving […]
Indiana Hoosiers Football Helmets Are Exceptional (video)
by Kent Sterling I’m a stickler for uniforms, helmets, and anything else can be a potential embarrassment to a university. Athletic directors who delve into fashion are a lot like teenage boys picking out a tux for the prom. Without being cruel, let’s just say that very few guys hold on to their prom pictures. […]
by Kent Sterling Dan Dakich is a great radio host because his genuine curiosity evokes answers that lead to unique opinions. I spent 90-minutes with Dan today in the 1070 the Fan studio, and he asked me about Rutgers. The most interesting part of the discussion dealt with journalistic weasels – my term, not Dan’s […]

by Kent Sterling Julie Hermann is accused of calling her University of Tennessee volleyball players “whores, alcoholics, and learning disabled,” before she resigned as coach 16 years ago. People aren’t perfect, but at a place trying to emerge from scandals, the behavior she displayed should DQ her as a candidate for an AD job at […]
by Chip Balma The Best Three Rookie Running Backs In 2013 The 2013 NFL Draft certainly won’t go down as an all-time classic, but there will still be some solid players who contribute right away. Here are the three top running backs right now as far as fantasy value goes for this upcoming season. Montee […]
by Kent Sterling My favorite part of the new College Football Playoff is that the official name for it is the College Football Playoff. No one got all Jim Delany clever, as the Big Ten commissioner did with the soon-to-be-abandoned names of its two divisions – Leaders and Legends. Just say what it is, and […]
by Kent Sterling Former Auburn football coach Gene Chizik is busying himself this week by defending his brief and erratic reign against a report by Selena Roberts that quoted former players as saying that players were paid, grades were fixed, recruits were excessively entertained, and that a significant number of players tested positive for synthetic […]
by Kent Sterling The buzzards are circling at Auburn University. Selena Roberts authored a report with quotes from former players who allege grade altering, cover-ups of dirty drug tests, payments to top players, and spending on recruits during official visits that exceeds NCAA rules. The school and former coach deny everything. Of course they do, […]
