This poster speaks for itself. 111 of his players picked in the NFL draft. 33 in the six years at Alabama. Nick Saban knows what it takes to get his players to the next level.

Elisha Shaw loves him some Isis Taylor

4 star recruit Elisha Shaw tweeted out a pic of his iPad screen with the quote “Man, I need that fifth star.” Unfortunately for the hotly recruited DT, he forgot to close out the other tabs. You probably don’t want to be lobbying for that elusive last star with POV porn loading in the background.

The 42nd ranked player in the class of 2014 according to 247 Sports favors Georgia and Alabama in the recruiting process. Maybe Isis Taylor can change his mind and get him to USC, a place where they definitely need help on that side of that ball.

Brady Hoke calls out Notre Dame for “chickening out”

King Ing — Tue, 14 May 2013 13:00:01 +0000

While speaking at the West Michigan Sports Commission luncheon in Grand Rapids, Brady Hoke decided to poke fun at Notre Dame for backing out of their annual game starting in 2015.

“We are fortunate to have unbelievable rivalry games at Michigan,” said Hoke. “The Notre Dame game, that rivalry, which they’re chickening out of. They’re still going to play Michigan State, they’re going to play Purdue, but they don’t want to play Michigan. I don’t know how they made that decision.”

Could it be their 15-23-1 record against the Wolverines?

Buy this Oregon Ducks Volkswagen Bug

Have you ever wanted to own a helmet car? If so this is your chance thanks to the University of Oregon.

You can bid on this 1973 VW Bug with the Ducks helmet attached to the top. Why would you not want a car with seat covers that look like footballs? And you know it wouldn’t have that Oregon flare without Nike symbols all over it.

P.S. It doesn’t actually run, so I can’t figure if $2500 is a steal or not.

Bryn Renner gets pranked by the rest of the North Carolina football team

King Ing — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 13:00:52 +0000

During a practice last fall the North Carolina football team decided to play a prank on their QB Bryn Renner. Taking a cue from the “fainting goats” video the 21 players on the field decided to fall down after the snap of the ball.

While pretty much everyone found it funny, QB1 didn’t think so and ran down the field. No high fives for you!

Lighten up, you could be playing for Duke.

Shane Larkin air balls the first pitch at Miami game

King Ing — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:52:04 +0000

So when your dad is Hall of Famer Barry Larkin, you’re probably expected to throw a strike on your ceremonial first pitch. Unfortunately for Shane Larkin he didn’t do that.

Air mail right over the catcher!

On the bright side it was still better than Denard Robinson’s first pitch
