Loans for food for helping a school get millions for winning a national championship. Glad they stopped treating food like cars. Is the dining hall open on the weekend?


So what should his school pay him? $50k? Should every player on the team make $50k, or just Napier? should the last man on the bench at USF also make $50k? What about the women's teams (you know you'll have to pay them the same)? The rowing teams?

I think it's hilarious that people from schools like SMU root for athletes to get paid. If you want to see the chasm between the have and have-not conferences grow even more, let's see if smu's athletic budget can pay its athletes a total of $5 mil a year. Remember, we can't even buy out June Jones.

Campisi's pizzas! The new recruiting tool!

I went to Campisi's in North Dallas for the first time in a couple years tonite and it was fancified with curtains, stonework on walls, plush seating and spot lighting-had to check I was in the right place. When did that happen?
