From the BSU release received this evening, it looks like the coaching staff for the 2011 Cardinals is just about complete. There’s still a full-time vacancy listed (for what I presume to be a strength and conditioning coach, though there isn’t a specific linebackers coach mentioned below either but Bateman does have LB position coach [...]

That’s right, ladies and gents, it’s Coach Parrish’s birthday today. Stan turns 64 today, so bully for him. I think a win at Iowa is a super birthday gift for him, don’t you?

Admittedly, it’s been a year since I’ve been back to Muncie for an epic clash of the Cardinal football team and the group of jabronis that dare attempt to play this game. What I have found though, throughout my travels through college football is that halftime shows, much like stadium food is so very different [...]

You know, they said that Stan Parrish was sort of hard-headed. Most folks thought he was obsolete and a little past his prime. Perhaps he was one of those coaches that really excels at being a Coordinator and focusing on what he knows but just isn’t suited for the head coaching position. There were questions [...]

That’s mostly because the days after National Signing Day is a virtual wasteland in terms of breaking news, but this year the responsibility for my lack of with-it-ness is because of the inches and inches of [...]

In December of 2008, Lane Kiffin was announced as the latest coach of the Tennessee Volunteers and subsequently became SEC Enemy #1 for 11 of the 12 member institutions’ fanbases. Hell, even the Tennessee fans were mixing their happiness with at least some level of trepidation due largely to Lane’s lack of experience, resume, or [...]

Forgive the lack of substantive posting over the last few days. While I wish I could blame it on something charitable or honorable, like adopting Malawi children or giving out meals to the homeless, I was simply sidetracked with orchestrating a Holiday Party of Awesomeness that ate into my time like Mark Mangino at a [...]

Last offseason in the MAC was characterized by vacancy after vacancy and the mad scramble to fill head coaching jobs at schools like Toledo, Bowling Green, Eastern Michigan, Miami, and Ball State. This year, the only MAC vacancy for now was Akron’s head coaching gig, after JD Brookhart and his entire staff lost control of [...]

News broke late last night as Edge and I were enjoying each other’s music knowledge on a little thing I like to call XBox Live that the axe man cameth for yet another coach in FBS… and I certainly hope he brought his flatbed. Mark Mangino, the head coach at Kansas, announced his “resignation” yesterday, [...]
