The Big 12's Nightmare Draft
The Big 12 had its worse draft ever. Even Mike Reinfeldt and Jeff Fisher think so. It took 36 selections before the second Big 12 player was drafted. This is from a conference with four of Top 10 in the final AP rankings. Pathetic. Powerhouse programs like Troy, Vanderbilt, Delaware, and...
Spring Practice Position Battles

Texas Football: Nebraska Post-Mortem
I have a work colleague whose husband is a manager at the Venetian in Las Vegas. It might surprise you then, classy joint that the Venetian is, to learn that it is the site of the prestigious Adult Video Awards. Aside from the enjoyment of seeing porn stars being led through the lobby on leashes...
Limas Sweed is out for the year

NFL Draft Day One: No Huskers Taken
There have been no Huskers taken on the first day of the NFL draft. I find it surprising that Carl Nicks is still available, I thought that we would at least be taken by the middle of the second round. Like I said earlier, this isn’t saying a whole lot for the talent level that Bill Callahan...

Defensive Linemen Still Available in 2008 NFL Draft
We'll go into it more tomorrow and this coming week, but I think most of us Steelers fans are fairly excited by the additions of RB Rashard Mendenhall and WR Limas Sweed. But, amidst our elation that our offense would have ben more weapons at its disposal in 2008, we also realized we hadn't...
