The NCAA banned college coaches from text-messaging recruit back in 2007 because of the potential cost to a student athlete who did not have an unlimited text messaging plan. This has become a growing problem because the NCAA was asleep at the switch when text messaging became a primary means of communication in this country. The Miami Hurricanes have self reported several texting infractions in several sports, Football, Track, and possibly baseball. Personally the fact that a team can be put... [Read more]

About two seasons ago the Washington Redskins signed former Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth to a $100 million dollar contract. Haynesworth had an average season to say the least, and his head coach was fired at the end of the season. The new coach in town Mike Shanahan runs a defense not suited to his abilities, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before Haynesworth is no longer a Redskin. Now if you sign that big of a contract, and then immediately under achieve... [Read more]

I just whipped his team, shouldn't I make more money than him? There is an 800 pound Ibis in the room no matter what subject comes up regarding Miami Hurricanes Football. That would be the contract extension of head coach Randy Shannon, who right now is the 11th highest paid coach in the ACC. Not to mention that he is not really the 11th highest paid he is tied with the guy in 12th place Frank Spaziani of Boston College. In one of my other articles I talked about how “cheap” Miami can...

The Miami Dolphins traded for talented but troubled Broncos Wide Receiver Brandon Marshall today, in a move that surprised a lot of teams. The reason is the Dolphins Czar of football operations typically does not deal with “divas” on his teams, and Marshall would definitely fit in that category. On top of that the Dolphins signed him to a 4 year, $47.5 million dollar contract with $24 million guaranteed, while giving up several second round draft picks. This is a lot of money and a big gamble... [Read more]
