Coach O

For the record, Coach Ogeron (the new Rebel head coach) has a bad case of potty mouth. Come on, coach. Clean up the language.

Poor Boy

And I forgot to mention that if you're headed out of town to UAB and you're not in the mood for bar-b-que, you can head to Mr. B's in the Carrefour at Kirby and Poplar Pike for a quick fill-up. They have a Shrimp Poor Boy you wouldn't believe. I would dare say it's their signature dish. It is some kind of good. Just the other day I was in there at lunch and ran into my good friend Tommy West. We talked about football, the top 25 ranking, and just life in general. Tommy really is a great guy.

Tigers fall out of top 25

After the near-debacle in Jonesboro, the Tigers fell out of AP's top 25. Frankly, as poorly as they performed against ASU, they deserve it. I ran into Tommy West last night at Ronnie Grisanti's, and he tells me this is exactly what he needed to get his team ready for the Blazers this coming Saturday.
