I’m Doubtful

Call me a nonbeliever, but I don’t think that there is any way that yesterday’s Rose Bowl was Urban Meyer’s last game as a college football head coach. There’s just too much hypocrisy with the man. “I know this is relatively young, but I started young — 17 years as a head coach, 33 years […]

This week, all three defendants in the first college basketball corruption trial were found guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. A jury found James Gatto guilty on all three of his counts and Christian Dawkins and Merl Code were found guilty on both of theirs. Gatto is a former Adidas employee, Code a former […]
