Yep, we have far more numbers in the 80s than WR/TEs or even players  (one
of the incoming TEs was assigned a lower number during spring practice).
I've been trying to note when I was skipping or had skipped a number but did
forget to mention that today!

the end result. If Bama vacates their 2005 win over us, will that also
change OUR record to indicate one additional win?

NCAA places Alabama football program on probation

---snip, snip, snip--

As a result, the NCAA ruled the football team must vacate any wins in which
any of those seven players took part during 2005-07. Alabama said that
pending a successful appeal, the decision would cost the program 21 wins,
including the 2005 Cotton Bowl victory over Texas Tech and an upset of
Florida earlier that season.

The Associated Press
Published: Monday, June 15, 2009 at 11:59 a.m. Last Modified: Monday, June 15, 2009 at 11:59 a.m. 

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida State University President T.K. Wetherell will tell the school's trustees this week that he wants to retire.
Two school officials close to Wetherell told The Associated Press on Monday that he will inform the school's Board of Trustees on Wednesday. They asked not to be named because they aren't authorized to make the announcement.
Florida State produced three Rhodes Scholars during Wetherell's tenure, but budget cuts in recent years have forced him to make him to make painful cuts at the school.
A former star football player at Florida State, Wetherell became president at his alma mater in January 2003.
Wetherell, 63, was treated for prostate cancer in recent years, but has received a clean bill of healthy from doctors at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville.

The vacating wins penalty is a joke.  The schools won't count those wins as
losses, they just disappear.  The schools who were beaten by players who
were cheating, don't get to count it as a win, it is still a loss.

So Bama will record an 0-2 season for 2005, Prothro will still have broken
leg and the Gators still have a loss.  Given that this happened at time when
they were still on probation, makes it laughable that they aren't seeing
significant scholarship reductions.

Same goes for SOW, at least there, we get to hear ole Bob whine and moan.

On Sept. 29, 2007 Florida State defeated Alabama in Jacksonville. In
hindsight, the game might be the first in history that neither school had a
chance to win. The NCAA is looking into whether both schools will vacate
victories from that season.

In the ongoing dinner theater known as Being Alabama only the actors change.
The roles remain the same. 

Bear's School went on NCAA probation Thursday for the fourth time in 14
years. Something about a textbook scandal. The details aren't really
important. There are major violations, but only because Alabama is to the
rulebook what Michael Vick is to pit bulls. A constant, menacing threat. 

The question has become when aren't there major violations in Tuscaloosa?
The latest penalties mean that 'Bama has been eligible to be an NCAA repeat
offender since 1995. Alabama has been committing major violations while
serving time for major violations. 


Seriously, the Tide need to clean up their act. (Getty Images)

 


Seriously, the Tide need to clean up their act.(Getty Images)

 

One slip-up during the five-year repeat violator statute of limitations is
considered serious. It makes a program eligible for the NCAA death penalty.
At Alabama, they scoff. It's a Crimson and White Groundhog Day every day. 

By the time Alabama's latest NCAA repeat offender clock stops ticking it
will be 2014. That's 19 years of -- as one infractions committee chairman
once put it -- staring down the barrel of a gun for the program. Nineteen
years of being on death row. 

If this is staring down the barrel of a gun, then 'Bama is Dirty Harry. Make
the Tide's day. Alabama's romp through the rules and regs is a clear
indicator that SMU's death penalty in 1987 will be the one and only such
punishment ever handed down. The NCAA will never again drop the hammer
because in the Yellowhammer State we've seen that nobody does it better. Or
worse. 

And keeps playing games. 

. Alabama http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/story/11844925  must
vacate victories

Any other school would get a swat on the butt for what was announced
Thursday. Apparently players were using leftover textbook money from their
scholarships to buy books for friends and relatives. Big whoop. 

Alabama, though, is being forced to vacate victories under Mike Shula
(2005-06) and Nick Saban (2007). Could be as many as 23. This isn't Bobby
Bowden controversial. Some Tide fans will likely say good riddance to
forgettable 6-7 and 7-6 seasons in '06 and '07. 

Once again, big whoop. 

There seems to be, though, a new age of wrongdoing. Some sort of anarchy has
broken out. We knew the NCAA enforcement staff was outmanned. Now it is
being outsmarted. The NCAA cops apparently sleep. The coaches? Not so sure.
They are looking for ways to cut corners whether their compliance directors
like it or not. 

A couple of years ago the coaches were up in arms about a ban on texting.
Now we've got Twitter, and it's legal, until the next technology evolves to
hound recruits. 

Saban got around a spring ban on head coaches meeting face-to-face with
recruits by installing a webcam. 

Lane Kiffin is practically daring to the NCAA to come in and do something
about his secondary violations.

'presence of awareness' with that which arises in mind. Non-duality or
rigpa is said to be the recognition that both the quiet, calm abiding
state as found in samatha and the movement or arising of phenomena as
found in vipassana are not separate. In this way it could be stated that

investigation. In one version, one maintains awareness as thoughts arise and
dissolve within the 'field' of mind http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind ,
one does not accept or reject them, rather one lets the mind wander as it
will until a subtle sense of immanence dawns. Vipassana or insight is the
integration of one's 'presence of awareness' with that which arises in mind.
Non-duality or rigpa is said to be the recognition that both the quiet, calm
abiding state as found in samatha and the movement or arising of phenomena
as found in vipassana are not separate. In this way it could be stated that
Dzogchen is a method for the recognition of a 'pure immanence' analogous to
what Deleuze http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilles_Deleuze  theorized about.

[gatortalk] [SUN]: Alabama boosts season tickets $10

Alabama boosts season tickets $10
The Associated Press 
Published: Monday, June 15, 2009 at 4:43 p.m. Last Modified: Monday, June 15, 2009 at 4:43 p.m. 

Alabama fans won't take a much bigger hit for football season tickets.
The tickets will cost $10 more than last season, rising to $365 for seven home games. That's the same increase as the past two seasons though the Crimson Tide is coming off a Southeastern Conference championship game and Sugar Bowl trip.
The Birmingham News reported the increase Monday.
It represents an increase of just under 3 percent.
The Tide has home games with Florida International, North Texas, Arkansas, South Carolina, Tennessee, LSU and Tennessee-Chattanooga.
