    Any writer out there want to share the expletive-laced reply Quinn issued when sought for comment?

    It duz seems like the USC/Bush fiasco has "quieted" since Draft Day 2006.....

    OU will appeal this issue solely on the basis of the Holiday Bowl outcome. They've already been screwed by Oregon once.

    "...and it's only cheating if you get caught."

    Nothing say cheating than the SEC and the old SWC.  The biggest crooks in college sports.  ;D

    Ah, the great old days of Jackie Sherrill and bull castration. ;)

    My first lesson when it to the family jewels was Jackie Sherrill and that bull. If he would have gotten his hands on Bevo, Texas would still be in a civil war to end all civil wars.

    I would also love to hear what JD Quinn said that didn't get printed.

    I absolutely agree. When the NCAA voids victories and a team is listed as 0-4 or whatever, the only people really affected are the sports writers who have to find ways to write around that or explain it in every damn article. I dealt with this almost daily on my beat covering the NCAA men's basketball tournament this season. Pain in my fookin' arse, it was.

    Handling the forfeit/vacated/erased issue in this fashion allows the NCAA and the bowls to weasel out of embarrassing realities.
    Otherwise, based upon the long and distinguished history of cheating by SEC schools, Vanderbilt would have received retroactive Sugar Bowl invitations covering 1980 to 1995 some time around 2002.

    J.D. Quinn telling a TV guy to "get a real job"

    Says the guy who didn't have a real job. Irony at its best.

    Okay I officially like the phrase "voids victories" only because of the umm, bathroom related connotations of "voids"
