Wait his 'Little Sisters of the Poor' analogy was controversial?  Hasn't that been a cliche for decades?

The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

It's kinda sounding like the NCAA is divided between schools who get caught paying players and schools who get away with it.  :hmm:

Or it is divided between the regular schools and the usual suspects.  The Miami story would be compelling if it happened at Texas or Notre dame or Penn State.  At Miami?  :yawn:

Yeah, but Ohio St and North Carolina also had players cashing in, and there's similar allegations about Cam Newton.

Hey Red McCombs just forked over $1,000,000 to the UTSA football program.  That was nice of him.

Oh, man....



QuoteThe uniforms are noteworthy for how many there are. With four jersey colors, four pants colors and two helmets (black and white), the team will have 32 combinations to select from. The jerseys say "Maryland" on the front.

Gone are the days of teams having simply a "home" and an "away" option. The Terps can go heavy on black, red, white or gold, or can mix and match.

"You probably see more mixes than you usually see," said Kevin Plank, founder and CEO of Under Armour, which designed the lightweight uniforms in consultation with Maryland.

Among the distinctive features is a turtle-shell pattern — called "terraprint" — on the white helmets. "Nobody has anything like that," said Walker Jones, Under Armour's director of sports marketing. There is also a brightly colored pattern on the shoulders of some of the jerseys.

Also new: helmets with no lettering and jerseys with no player names. Previous Maryland helmets had "Terps" on the side. "We have a lot going, so we didn't want a busy helmet," Jones said.

The helmets invoke the state with a stripe down the middle depicting the Maryland flag in a reduced, repeating pattern.

Looks like an Oregon Duck on fire.

Damn I thought Maryland's colors were just red and white.

White turtle shell with a Lord Baltimore stripe?  What the hell?

At least Nike didn't decide on a paisley pattern for Wyoming's helmets.

I like the shell but the stripe doesn't look right.
