Yeah he downplayed the entire situation, hence the 1/2 game suspension. Then the staff got all the eye witness reports, according to Rachel Nichols at least.

looking forward to attending what should be a nice mid-major bout in Akron today. We will see if the Zips are ready to take the next step as many people think. Rumor that LBJ may be in attendance. His foundation has partnered with UA to get 2500 tickets to the game.

That will...not be easy. Marshall is completely legit, but just (1) plays in a shit conference and (2) compensates for that by having most of their non-conference games be against another shit conference. Long-time fans of that university probably are having flashbacks to when they had Randy Moss, Byron Leftwich, Chad Pennington, etc., but were in the MAC, so they were looked at more as an interesting curiosity than an actual legit team.

If Holliday doesn't cost them any games I could see them near the top 10 by season's end. No way these lose any at home. Holliday is one hell of a recruiter. Marshall looks like an SEC type team with where their players are from.

I think Va Tech blew their load. They look not so good.
Wisky up on pesky BG early.

Yeah, I know. It may turn out the best Nonconference game the Bucks played could be Navy.
