I think I just fell in love with Tavon Austin. 344 yards rushing...and he's a wide receiver. Let's not forget the fact that he's an amazing receiver and had a couple catches and 82 yards receiving on the side in the game.

 

This is the man I want with the Dolphins first round pick. I don't care that he's 5'9, talent is talent, and that man is talented.

 

 

Pretty sure he's projected to go into the second round and we will most likely have a top 15, if not top 10, pick.

We have two second round picks. I'm sure we can package them to move up into the late first and take him. There's so many receivers available this year that I'd rather take another positional need early.

Hurricanes self-imposed a postseason ban for the 2nd year in a row. Tough call because they probably play in the ACC title game and although they'd be huge underdogs to FSU, the long shot at a BCS game is pretty tempting. But I'm okay with it, it feels crappy playing in a conference title game with 3 losses. Hopefully now when the NCAA penalty comes down it'll just be some scholarships and they won't bother with postseason bans.

There's about a 100 violations most of which the violators involved aren't even denying to the NCAA so expect a 2 year bowl ban at least.

most involve awful things like a party boat.

 

they've already given themselves a 2 year bowl ban and 3 postseason games including a conference title game. Think I heard they've never handed out anything longer than a 2-year postseason ban lately, and I hardly think this is the worst offense in college football in the past 20 years or something.

 

If they hand out another 2 years on top of this I'll be stunned.

I feel confident that Te'o is innocent in all this. I believe he lied about meeting Kekau face to face and talking for hours with her over the phone because he was ashamed to admit he maintained a long term relationship with a girl solely over the phone and on the internet. I think his friend, Ronaiah, took advantage of Mantai and gained his trust over the internet, and did this solely because he thought it was funny and maybe he could eventually get on the show Catfish.

 

For you to believe Manti Te'o is actually got Catfish'd, you have to believe he might possibly be the most gullible man to walk the face of the earth. I feel he truly cared for this "girl" and got duped. It's hard to believe because you wonder why would a guy like Manti Te'o, who could get any girl he desires, maintain a relationship with a girl he didn't even meet face to face for two years. Well, I think Te'o might be a hell of a lot more trusting than he probably should be, and I think this incident will permanently humiliate him and create long lasting trust issues.

 

Oh, and the media will automatically assume he is guilty and conspiring to create a fake girlfriend who died to boost a Heisman campaign.

 

When you step back and think about it, that makes so little sense.

 

Quote this post if this is proven wrong in the future, but I'd be shocked, SHOCKED, at this point if we find out Te'o conspired to create this girlfriend. I think he's a genuinely dumb guy who ended up in a true Lifetime movie scenario.

This is one of the weirdest and most embarrassing situations ever. Imagine the shit he'll get at the combine.
