Around SBN: Auto Racer Jeffrey Earnhardt Excited to Make MMA Debut

'Noles News 12.20.11

Today I have an excellent collection of stories for you. 20, in all. As always, I've read each of these and promise not to bring you junk. Not all of these are about Florida State, but I've always maintained that the readers of this site like reading good articles about football, regardless of the team. And perhaps no news is good news for FSU, considering the Mark Stoops drama and the arrests of the last week.

Oh, and did I mention... ANDROID APP for Tomahawk Nation? Yeah.

Avis Commack and Arrington Jenkins are both currently suspended from team activities. Jimbo has handled the rare arrest during his tenure quite well, deferring to the legal process and preserving the rights of the kids.

This post will cover the skill positions, and is assuming that all the guys that will be leaving for the draft have already declared their intentions, or of course are seniors and have no choice. As far as I am aware, the last holdout was Ojomo, and that was due to his application for a 6th year, which sadly he was denied. So this list is subject to change, albeit it shouldn't be much different aside from the new kids on campus.

I read that Miami article yesterday…I am shocked at the optimism from their writer…acting like someone can just “replace” Miller…plus, he didn’t read your article over the summer which can predict passing offense quality based on returning WR catches from the year before…I have done 0 research, but if you lose your top 3 receivers at about 75% or higher, it doesn’t look very good (look at NC State this year and FSU in the beginning of 2010).

Kid's got miles of talent, but Lamar Miller may go first round.

How can you consider it feasible for a true freshman to replace a 3rd-year player who is going to the NFL? Especially in a skill position, and especially when you will have no returning starters at all skill positions?

They had an excellent offense this year BECAUSE of those playmakers. Not because Jedd Fisch is an offensive genius. If they can manage a top 25 offense next year Fisch deserves a medal.

I watched the State Championship Game, and he is bigger than that.

I am pretty sure you are exaggerating though. He looked to me to be just north of 190lbs, but I am guessing. I don’t think he will have a problem with being an every down back, but it will be hard as a freshman.
As for being able to replace Miller, he could wear the same number, and play the same position; but he has a way to go before he can be his equal, if he ever could be. He surely doesn’t have the same top end speed, but he is a very good RB.

She looks like half of the chicks at Notre Dame

And by “half” I mean size. I was up there for the ’93 game and I saw scores of ND women bumping around campus with a bottle of whiskey in one hand and a brat in the other. Oh, BTW, they were all fish-belly white and 200 lbs.

Sure there were a few decent looking ones (and I emphasize ‘decent’). But finding one was comparable to finding a straight guy at a Lady Gaga concert.

OSU has been less than willing to open the books for the NCAA during it’s investigation.

That lack of cooperation, sense of entitlement, and the NCAA’s desire to look relevant might spell out a need for a few examples.

Last I heard (no link unfortunately)

The death penalty really isn’t off the table at this point. I think this was in an editorial story on Foxsports or something like that, but they were talking about how the NCAA is sick and tired of being made a mockery by bigtime programs and Miami would be a perfect place to unleash their wrath considering the Canes blatant middle finger to the rules in years past… they have history.

Also, it helps handing it down to a team like Miami because although there is still some mystique tied to the name – their self-imposed mediocrity over the past decade or so eases the burden of smashing them. There isn’t any big proceeds that will be lost by crushing them under a boot (unlike teams like USC and Ohio State) who have been NCAA cashcows for years recently.

I mean don’t get me wrong, I don’t know anything about what the NCAA is thinking, they stuff I heard (from that article and others) just makes sense to me.

I think Miami made a mistake not taking the bowl game when they could this year. It won’t have any effect on the NCAA crackdown and they are already hurting for money.

Would have been nice for them just to get to the Wakulla “We Barely Have Enough Clout and Money to Even Have a Bowl, and If You Made It Here You Still Suck” Bowl… They could have at least put the money in an interest bearing savings account and made an extra $250-$300 in the next 4-5 years towards a hotdog stand or something.

Yeah, really. If you want to be more like the ESS E CEE, 2 elite teams in each division (though 1 side will be elite at a time),1 low end team that rises to mediocre season, and a bunch of patsies

It’s clearly a winning formula. And it really looks like that’s going to be the case going forward in the ACC as well.

Atlantic (SEC West):
FSU & Clemson (ugh) will be your elite programs, and then 4 patsies. TOB and Grobe will alternate 7-5 seasons. Maryland may get relegated to level 2 football if Edsall stays around, and Spaz is doing his best to follow.

Coastal (SEC East):
VT will continue to be top dawg, GT will play 2nd fiddle, UVA will rise to #2 in Coastal until London leaves, UNC could end up being really good in 2-3 years, and Miami will wallow in its own filth for 2-4 more years.

Hey, UM fan here. *everyone points guns

If you read it correctly it states that there are 6, not 7 DLineman as you imply. Out of those players (Forston, Ojomo, Robinson, Vernon, Smith, and Regis) only 3 I REPEAT 3 were impressive (Robinson, Regis and Vernon). Forston couldn’t live up to the hype and a case of the injury bug, Ojomo would probably be in FSU’s 4th team DTs, and Smith was irrelevant. While the D-Line next year won’t be as impressive, there is still potential here. Hopefully, the lineup will be Chickillo (4*YS, 5* Scout) Grimble (4* YS, 5* Scout) Smith (6’3 320+) and Porter (was a force in the last 2 games accumulating 10 tackles after coming off injury ). They’re a little bit inexperienced, but talented nonetheless. The problem comes in when we have to rotate. 2nd string will be Williams(this guy is weighs less than Sean Spence, but was wanted by a lot of top-tier teams in recruiting) Pierre (was solid in the GT game) King(redshirt), and hopefully Green can put on some weight. After that it’s just ST players. If our current commits stick, Jelani Hamilton may be 2nd string, and Jake O’Donnell may start (Franklin loves this kid TOO MUCH if you ask me).

I was pointing out an error one of your colleagues made and simply informing him that while it’s bad, it’s not as bad as you may think. I never mentioned any wins or losses, so why are you bringing up records “You might win 1 here or there, but rest assured….You’re taking it up the tailpipe” when I’m talking about the 2012-2013 Miami Hurricanes D-LINE? Typical. And RollNole5 I’m pretty sure Chickillo and/or D. Smith could start on 1st.

i like chickillo, thought he looked pretty good

but i think he’d be 2nd string at best behind Jenkins and Werner.

As for your D-Line, I think what will be fun to watch is what happens when 1-2 of your starters go down to injury

Carradine and Werner would still be the starters would out a doubt. They have earned it and are beasts to say the least. But Chickillo is a very good young player that has proven himself to be a 5* talent at the position and would definitely be in the 2nd unit rotation if he was at FSU.

I especially liked the red flags blog on Notre Dame women

I am always up for a good laugh. There was some banter in the piece among a few still defining themselves according to the democrat vs republican Hegelian dichotomy. That does not speak well for universities in general. If you are educated today it most likely had very little to do any university. In fact I went through the FSU business school and I don’t recall one professor, not even one, bothering to point out the federal reserve is not federal but owned by a consortium of private bankers who issue worthless paper money and stash the gold and silver in European vaults.

I wish I had thought of this but I did not, Gerald Celente the trend forecaster who appears on the news sporadically stated that he fails to see how any grown up adult these days still can believe one word emanating from politicians or the media.

As for Notre Dame I can’t imagine attending a university where you would have to spend all four years deprogramming everyone you met and trying to break the spell of the religious cult which had seized upon them.

Conspiracy unfortunately is an over used cliche many hide behind to mask their unfamiliarity with sometimes complex subjects or dodge a weighty issue they feel uncomfortable discussing. There are very few conspiracies, simply issues you may not yet be aware of.

Some use it to mask their lack of intellectual resolve and some do so due to their personal involvement or own moral weakness as a result of not speaking out on certain issues which cause them pangs of guilt. A case in point might be one who has himself just finished an aspartame laced cola. It is better to call it a conspiracy than to admit such a chemical is indeed a low cost neurotoxin and used in many insect killers than to face the fact that such person may simply be uninformed.

Some however may be directly or indirectly involved in certain conspiracies and seek to stifle debate on such matters. This could range to everything from employees of cellphone companies, sugar substitutes, Monosodium glutamate, GMO modified foods, media enforcers, fluoride manufacturers, nuclear energy companies, politicians, vaccine makers etc.etc. All of these have the ability to cause you unmentionable suffering but may well seem like a conspiracy to the uninformed. It could also apply to football conferences where some entities perceive a certain advantage by simply failing to note obvious interference by referees, preferring to label such thought as a conspiracy.

A conspiracy is not a complicated issue, simply two or more people joining together in an effort to bring about a desired result. The attempt consciously or unconsciously to avoid and repress intellectual debate on some topics is of and itself a conspiracy.

There can be little doubt that the Color Orange, and the NCAA are perpetrating a conspiracy together.

Think about it.
Why are there so many teams in the NCAA that wear The Color Orange?
A better question is: Why are there any teams that would wear that God Awful Color Orange?
Look around your house, how many things do you see that are The Color Orange? Thats right, not many. Would you buy a car, boat, dish washer, laundry machine/dryer, pair of shoes, or anything for that matter, that was The Color Orange? Would you paint your house The Color Orange, or wear any cloths that are The Color Orange? Of course not, but if it is the color of your beloved Football/Basketball team, you would. Are you following where I am going so far?
Then look at the teams that wear The Color Orange, and ask yourself: Are these teams that would partake in a conspiracy? There is: UF, Miami, Clemson, Florida, Auburn, UM, Boise St, Clemson, Virginia, The Gators, Tennessee, Illinois, The Tigers, Texas, the []_[], Oregon St, Utep, The Canes, that team from Hog Town, and many others.
Then there is: Bowling GREEN, you would think their colors would be green right? Well you would be wrong, it’s The Color Orange. Why would a team with green in it’s name, run around wearing The Color Orange? I’ll tell you why, MONEY.
Let us not leave out the most obvious of them all: The Orangemen! They have even named a team “The Orangemen”. How does that name even make any sense? Syracuse, you should be ashamed of yourselves. I can’t wait for you to get on our schedule, so we can stomp you into a big Orange puddle of mangled leftover pieces of Orange Football Players.
The only real question is: Why are The Color Orange, and the NCAA perpetrating this shockingly, unthinkably, horrible conspiracy together? Well I have a theory for that.
I know a guy, that works with a guy, that has a sister, that used to be married to a guy, that worked for this huge company that manufactures paint. He told his wife (when they were married, he denies it now of course), then she told her brother, and he told the guy that I know, that this company made up tens of thousands of gallons of Orange paint on accident. We all know that no company is going to throw away billions of dollars in paint. So they struck a deal with the NCAA, and Complicit University’s. This deal was to use up the mistakingly made Orange paint.
The All Mighty Dollar at work again, it is just so obvious to anyone that opens their eyes.
