Memphis Indiscretion May Lead to Kentucky Headache

Posted by Trips Right on August 20th, 2009 under Basketball

More on cheating from ESPN. I like the trend. Anyway, this is in no way a shocker to the folks that were paying attention. John Calipari, neck tats, and entrance test shenanigans go together like peanut butter and jelly. Throw in the cess pool that has always been Memphis basketball, and an NCAA investigation was a matter of when and not if. As for vacating wins, that is merely a flesh

The National Championship on the Line Right Here

Posted by Huckleberry on June 24th, 2009 under Baseball

This one's for all the marbles. It all comes down to this. Winner takes all. To help tide us over until gametime and get through the workday, here are some videos of the runups and the final games of our athletic department's last three chances to take home a national championship with one more win (I get to ignore the 2004 Fullerton series because we never got into that position):

Muschamp Unplugged Mother%()*$*$!

Posted by Vasherized on June 17th, 2009 under Football

Forgive the brief foray into Texas Football. I know it's anathema to the strict offseason diet we stick to here at Barking Carnival but I had a chance to attend the most recent Frank Denius lecture series at the UT Club this week where the guest was none other than our defensive coordinator, head coach in waiting, and all around bad ass, Will Muschamp.

Texas took in almost $73 million in football revenue during the 2007-08 school year, as well as a total of $120.3 million in total dollars. Texas was one of only three programs to produce athletics revenue over $100 million last school year. Ohio State

J.C. Watts, a former Sooner QB is a legislative shill for the BCS.

Quick Star Trek Review

Posted by Minnesotahorn on May 8th, 2009 under

Chris Applewhite will likely be along shortly to add his excellent 'Review for Nerds' but I thought I'd post some quick thoughts in the interim.  A buddy and I have a tradition of seeing most of these sci-fi/comic book/adventure films at their opening midnight showing as the people watching often surpasses the quality of the film itself.  To date we've seen dorks of all ages dressed as Yoda, Dr. Manhattan and I think even

Will Muschamp Gets It

Posted by srr50 on January 6th, 2009 under Uncategorized

When it comes to watching the National Championship game this Thursday night, Longhorn DC Will Muschamp falls firmly in line the with our own CloseToJumping, who deeply believes that there is NEVER, NEVER, NEVER any reason for a Longhorn to root for a Sooner win. Muschamp is quoted on the Dallas Morning News website "I'm not rooting for them," Muschamp said. "I might watch the game but I'm not rooting, I guarantee you that.".
