But he still has Florida on his list so it's not like Oregon is the clear-cut favorite.

On that note... 247 has a thread on him...

For Whatever it may be worth... somebody mentions the fact that Florida signed 2 5* DTs last year, to which JHop chimes with "Maybe not all of them plan on sticking around this year."

I can only assume this is referring to everyone's favorite 2010 prospect Dominique Easley. Does JHop know something???

Per a Tony D tweet earlier today, Easley confirmed that he's staying at Florida and it NOT seeking a transfer. That may or may not help with Simmons.

I don't expect much to come of allegations against TT. The article stated the worst infractions were by the Mens Golf and Women's Softball teams. Probation doesn't necessarily mean heavy sanctions. This will most likely be a slap on the wrist and a little extra monitoring to be sure it doesn't happen again.

I think that is Jhop being tongue in cheek about the Easley situation. He knows the same rumors that the rest of us know and I think it was a comment on those rumors, not some hint at new revelations.

Maybe I've missed it but when exactly did Jhop ever deliver any actual inside info? He speculates like everyone else on here but for some reason many give him props as an "insider".

Haha never, or rarely at best it would seem.

I was trying (apparently not very well) to be a little tongue-in-cheek as well (while secretly hoping it might be true I guess...)

I thought I heard on ESPN that there were around 43 improper contacts of recruits by Mike Leach and his staff? I'm pretty sure that's what I heard. I'm sure there'll be more about it to clarify.

Actually it was 234 messages to 45 different recruits. I just saw it again on ESPN.

The first article posted actually said, " The NCAA put Texas Tech on two years of probation Friday for a series of recruiting violations, saying 16 coaches or assistants sent nearly 1,000 impermissible text messages to football, softball and golf prospects."

Easley isn't leaving.

Another hines gem.

You clearly didn't read the entire thread before adding your elegant insight.

If you're going to defend your comments as simply being blunt and realistic, at least read the entire conversation so your responses are also well-informed.

he just got a sack in the army game
