Denver to cut Champ? Hmmm...

This sucks

But since we need some experienced defensive backs....and he has a year of eligibility...




Coaching quotes - on practice and quitters

"I make my practices real hard...because if a player is a quitter...I want him to quit in practice, not in a game." - Paul "Bear" Bryant

"Name That Tune" to air from Sanford starting today!

If you happen to walk-drive-jog-meander around Sanford Stadium the next few days you just might see George DeWitt shoving a microphone in front of AD McGarity.
“Some of the work may result in limited periods of high volume music and test sounds inside the facility,” according to the announcement. “Significant efforts are being taken to reduce the time when potentially disruptive sound may be audible outside of the stadium. There will be specially designated time periods used in order have a minimal impact on activities in close proximity to the area.
 For what it's worth, with the help of the Redcoats I can name Krypton Fanfare in just two notes.

Dabo solves the Rock vandal case

Turns out there was more than one Howard's Rock vandal I guess. Unless these guys broke a tractor or something.


Pre-spring caution flag

Emerson reminds us of the cautionary tale of spring's empty expectations:
Remember last year, when the defense clearly had the better G-Day game? How’d that turn out? And remember how Jonathan Rumph was an offensive star? Again, how’d that turn out?
Some programs elsewhere are actually eliminating their spring games, replacing it with a practice, which they feel would be more productive. I doubt Georgia would go that way, as G-Day has become an ingrained part of the spring, and a nice event for fans... 
Ok. I'll resist the temptation to fan any flames. Promise.

Probably.

Happy Birthday Herschel!

And thanks for proving year in and year out that age is just a number.




The Junkyard Podcast, episode no. 1

Be careful what you ask for Reader. You might just turn into a Listener.

So this is the first podcast from The Junkyard. I ran into some expected and predicted technical difficulties. As a result, I ended up uploading what I had into Soundcloud. That's kinda like a pass getting tipped into a waiting Auburn receiver's hands. But whatevs. It at least saved what I had and allows you to listen in. But eventually (hopefully before the next episode) I will have that side of things squared away and ready to push into iTunes so that y'all can add the feed to whatever service you use to grab podcasts from the internets. This one just didn't work that way.

Also, there's some sound problems that I would describe as pretty minor. But overall I thought it was pretty good considering the extra hurdles. Live and learn. And now listen....




Here are the links from this episode. Thanks for tuning in. Go Dawgs!
