OK, hope that player gets things turned around and is able to finish his education.
From what I've heard, doubtful he can play in 2014.

sorry for him, but everybody can be replaced.

Hope you and your family are safe and unaffected by the storms.
Let us know ya'll are OK.

We're good thanks. Storms paved north of us last night but it was a long night. Wife and I took turns watching the tv and listening to weather alerts in case we needed to move the family to the basement. Luckily it never needed to be done so just a long night with little sleep. Hope all is well across the ODAC fan base

Good to know. Be careful and stay alert. I know you will.

Yes that is a very true statement. In some cases however, the loss is felt more deeply. Especially if a competent and popular leader is lost. Destroys morale faster than Mike Tyson last turn at a spelling bee

I think he will be missed with a drop off in skill at this position.  I'm still mulling the Mike Tyson/spelling bee comment.  lol

Picture it. Your school is tied. It's the last word to win it all. He misspells Hasa. WTF could do that besides him

Any recent news on the E&H scholarship thing?

Don't hold your breath.  Father with axe to grind hoping to make some free publicity for his business when it didn't come up roses for his kid. Might be something here, but I highly doubt it is anything like the student reporter fell prey to.  A sensationalized story...

Exactly. I did a little Internet digging and, let's just say, I find the Dortons to be somewhat lacking in credibility (I posted about this a page or two back). Something may have happened, but I reallllly doubt they're giving us God's honest truth.  It's a serious allegation - no coach should offer some phony scholarship and then take it away - but I'm having a hard time taking their account at face value, and absent some level of "proof" I think this will just go away.
I was small but made up for it by being slow...

Heck, I wish tied football games could be decided with a spelling bee ... I still have eligibility in football.  lol
