That’s a very loose quote though. Apparently after his speech at Notre Dame, he spoke with Rev. John Jenkins, the university president.
“My speech paled in comparison to what to do about the football team. That’s an issue we may not resolve within my four years,” Obama said.
So, Over or Under: Who keeps their job longer? Obama or Notre Dame? I’ll pick Obama. He’s more like to get his contract extended too.
Will Colorado’s Cody Hawkins (QB) declare for the 2010 NFL Draft? Will he leave Colorado and forgo his final year of eligibility (he redshirted in 2006)?
No.
There’s not much demand for a short quarterback in the NFL with average talent.
School spokesman Steve McClain confirmed Davis’ departure Saturday, but would not divulge the reason for his decision.
Davis, a sophomore from Seffner, had academic trouble and at least two off-the-field problems during his time in Gainesville. He was cited for alcohol possession and driving with knowledge of a suspended license.
One of the nation’s top recruits in 2007, Davis had 15 tackles and two sacks in two seasons. His highlight came when he stuffed Oklahoma’s Chris Brown on consecutive plays from the 1-yard line in the second quarter of a 7-7 game. The Gators won 24-14.

Off to a great start do to some easy scheduling, Colorado will start 4-0. Colorado State, Miami, Wyoming and West Virginia should all be wins. Colorado State just isn’t ready to bring it to the Rocky Mountain Showdown. The game will be close, as it always is lately, but Colorado will win in the end. Colorado will have confidence then going into Miami with their success last season. Wyoming is still suffering with their change, and isn’t in the same league (literally and figuratively). West Virginia of the 4 games is the weakest prediction since it’s on the LONG road trip and in an unfamiliar place with the crowd to deal with. Colorado is the better team, but the factors and the youth of the team come into play.
Then comes the Big 12 conference. Texas: No question they’re still out of our league. Kansas and K-JC-State both get a loss by Colorado. K-State is obvious, but Kansas could be considered an upset by some. But Kansas has never been really good: They’re over-rated of the past few seasons and Colorado will claw and drag this to a victory. It it was in Manhattan, KS, this would be a loss, but the home field helps. Missouri is still good: period (and will win the Big 12 North in 2009). Of the remaining games, OK-State is the only tough game being on the road in a strong Big 12 South. Nebraska is considered an upset, since most believe NU is the better team, but being at home, with me cheering, and a lackluster season dawning on the team, NU won’t be able to perform and Colorado will win big: 50-30 (ish).
That means Colorado is 9-3, but not in the Big 12 title game. Not even considered for a BCS at-large game, but they do get a prestigious bowl game (TBD).
A guy walks into a bar in South Bend wearing a Notre Dame jersey and carrying a cat that also has a Notre Dame jersey on with a little Fighting Irish helmet on his head, too.
The guy says to the bartender, “Can my cat and I watch the Notre Dame game here? My TV at home broke down and my cat and I always watch the game together”.
The bartender replies, “Normally, cats wouldn’t be allowed in the bar, but it’s not very busy in here right now, so you and the cat can have a seat at the end of the bar. But, if there’s any trouble with you or the cat, I’ll have to ask you to leave.”
The guy agrees, and he and his cat start watching the game. Pretty soon The Fighting Irish manage to kick a field goal and the excited cat jumps up on the bar, walks all the way down and gives everyone a high five.
The bartender says, “Hey, that’s pretty cool! What does he do for a touchdown?” The guys answers, “I don’t know, I’ve only had him for 3 years.”
SMQ was funny. Then they sold out and I didn’t care anymore.
Gump 4 Heisman is now my new SMQ. Until they sell out.
(I don’t blame them, just sayin’.)
