Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 3:42 pmThe best line in there was that "TCU was just a splash in the pan".

didn't he play with Vance McIllhenney & Greg James? And they were coached by Ray Meyer?
Still pissed that DePaul stole Meyer from us.
Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2008 4:15 pmAs tired as I have become of reading about the DP, the same facts over and over again... I thought this was a pretty good account. Though misspelling Dicerson's name is quite the flub. Also, there was a sentence that was poorly worded: "Payments ranged from $50 to $725 per month from Ralph Rodriquez of Orange Park Florida and occurred during the three-year probationary period."
Surely not all payments came from this Ralph Rodriguez character. Maybe he meant "according to"... I dunno'.

Who's been the best coach, post-DP?
Ya'll go first....

Is he related to "Slowpoke" Rodriguez?
Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 9:22 pmGreat article.
Not often a writer admits his mistakes and offers a public correction.
Quite balanced without any axe to grind.
I enjoyed it.
