UA Phi Delta Theta Chapter Under Investigation

Posted by Adam Butler on November 20, 2009

after a pledge was hospitalized with a .68 BAC level.  Wow.  No wonder they “front tuck” their shirts and leave them untucked in the back.  Tucking Anything is hard to do at .68…..including breathing.

He’s Still Coaching?

Posted by Brett Kincaid on November 20, 2009

Stan Heath still has a job…for the moment.  It sounds like Coach Heath has not been minding the store too closely in Tampa.  I don’t know which is more embarrassing for him — his record or lack of knowledge about the alleged problems.

Heath, who is 23-41 and in his third season at USF, denied the allegations or said he had no knowledge of them.

NSFW Ole Miss Campus to be Site of KKK Rally Saturday?

Posted by Adam Butler on November 20, 2009

That’s the plan, if this is legit (and it appears to be)………as if the Mississippi coach doesn’t already have his hands full with LSU and explaining away another 4-loss season after being ranked in the Top 10.  I hope/feel reasonably certain even Mississippi fans will renounce this.
