Southern Miss incoming QB signee Keon Howard of Laurel tweeted out that he is exited going to the Pete today and checking it out down there! If any of you down there run into into Keon then help welcome this young man to the Southern Miss family! He's going to be another tradition of great student athletes to wear the black and gold!

St. Martin (Ocean Springs, MS) High standout Kalem Reddix and his Yellow Jacket teammates completed their spring practices with a jamboree win over Forest Hill (Jackson, MS) High.

Got baseball game on my phone and hooked to TV and softball on my iPad. Looks like a productive evening from GA.

Southern Miss moved to offer Baker County (FL) High sleeper OL Travion Clayton this past week.

The talented 6-foot-3, 310-pounder could be the first Baker County product to donne the Black & Gold since receiver Chris Rhoden graduated back in 2008.

Found 2 projections with both showing us hosting. Either would be fine with me.

Southern Miss became the latest program to offer Western (Davie, FL) High defensive lineman Kevin Oliver.

The Eagles became the second program to offer the 6-foot-4, 255-pounder. Texas A&M was the first program to extend an offer.

I hope that Bill Mac II is working harder than any AD in the history of USM to get to the AAC. For this to happen, I really have to believe that Reed Green will have to be gutted and rebuilt. I really liked the renderings of the remodeled coliseum.

nasty stuff you got. Lets go eagles!!! TCB SMTTT
Lets swing those bats too.

Scott Berry has released his weekend Rotation:

Fri - Sam Mason Walley
Sat - Kirk McCarty
Sun - Walker Powell

tie their game with Tech 4-4 and then miss out on a chance to win the game in the bottom of the seventh by leaving a runner on second with one out. Going to the 8th inning.

We had an event to honor academic scholarships.

We had multiple students with schollies, but 5 had big money.

One was a Southern Miss commitment.

But, of all of the schools represented (over 10) only one sent a mascot.

They all brought "swag" but one tool that up a notch.

And one really had a serious impact.

While the biggest scholarship was to the Airforce academy, Southern Miss was better represented than any other.

And seriously, Seymour was a hit.

Not sports related, but good stuff building up the school.

are rattling their swords about leaving the NCAA again and negotiating their own football deal. Questions that would have to be for all sports right not just football? Would all members be accepted just because or would these greedy schools leave the Vandy's, MSU, Ole Miss, Kansas of the world behind. I don't know how it would work with all sports but if its football only why would you take Kansas or Indiana or even Kentucky Great in Basketball but football not. It sounds like a big ole mess to me. They would have to have an administrating body. Maybe they stay in the NCAA and just sell their football games or just move up a division. When and if we look up ten years from now and nobody is watching college football you can thank the greed of these schools.

The Old Mess NCAA investigation is looking very serious. Alabama and T A&M coaches have said that the death penalty is warranted and other sources have said it is on the table. It involves not only football but other programs too. Includes drugs, money, strippers for underage prospects, and loss of institutional control. Can't imagine the death penalty, but looks serious anyway, especially with Alabama upset.

I got this email from College Sports Live about my subscription ending and did not remember having a subscription to College Sports Live. I thought it was unwanted spam at first. After checking out the FAQs I found this "All Access and ULive have been discontinued. Instead, College Sports Live offers you an unprecedented value with unlimited access to all content within our network of schools with a single subscription."
Maybe I have not been paying close enough attention but this is new to me. Hopefully it will be better than All-Access.

Give UTEP coach Tim Floyd this: He found himself a sure-fire way to land a national college basketball headline in the middle of May.

Floyd held something of a seemingly random offseason press conference on Tuesday. After watching the video above, you'll see it wasn't so random, though. Floyd's motive for the presser is clear. The six-year UTEP coach is unhappy with some local media coverage of the team, and in particular, after watching the video, it's obvious Floyd wanted a public forum to argue with a specific member of the local media. The target is a radio host named Steve Kaplowitz. Over the course of nearly 30 minutes, Floyd took aim at Kaplowitz, calling him "irresponsible" a number of times.

Girls play at 4:30 today vs UAB.

TEE and Carol, Lamar and Melissa, 70 (Leighton), Dawn and John all are there and said to tell everyone on BGN Hello!

Shout out to them!!! These true 'Black and Gold super fans' drove to Denton yesterday for the assurance of seeing one game. But, with the win last night, they get to hang around and see at least 2 more games. Good for them!

Sounds like they are having a blast!!! Doing their best to stay out of fights and JAIL! and, of course, keeping an eye on 70!

Said the girls are really hitting the covers off the ball.

Kudos to this devoted group of Golden Eagles.... Bring us home a CUSA Championship.

and, GO Wendy and Girls!

He was a highly sought after offensive lineman that just transferred from ASA Junior College. I have no idea why he was dismissed from Alabama though and it would have to be something pretty bad for Alabama not to turn a blind eye.

sticks were working last night, but not today...

Memphis is a serious player in the expansion game with the Big 12.

UM President (Dunn) has pledged $500,000,000 to the Academic and Athletic 'Infrastructure' to Commissioner Gee of the Big 12 Conference.

$500,000,000 dollars! INSANITY!!!!

He has the full backing of Fred Smith, CEO and Chairman of FEDEX.

They (Memphis) are whores, but, they are Rich whores.

Zero tradition in football with NO games played on their 'Storied' Campus.

Blows my mind what is going on with College Football. IE

Nm

if two teams jumping from the AAC is bad for USM then most of the latest G2 is not good news. UCONN and BYU seem to have fallen of the headlines for the other half of the AAC. Looks like Memphis is trying to buy their way in and both UCF and UH are pushing hard.
